Subject: Re: Help: long hose for recreational setup
To: alexanc@hs*.ut*.co*, techdiver@aquanaut.com
When wearing a harness and diving a single tank set-up, I route the long hose 
under the knife sheath and/or utility pocket which is worn on the left/front 
side, behind the buckle on the waist strap.  Some people route extra hose 
under the buckle, rather than routing under the pocket, but I prefer not to 
trap it that way (deploying it would require an extra tug -- not really a big 
deal, but...).  Although I'm not familiar with your BC, I think you could 
route the hose under your integrated weight pocket in the same manner.
