What theory's do we have on hose configurations?? Any reason not to have inflator hose come off of left post on doubles?? How about pressure gauge? Where do you have yours??

I found the above link which discusses just this topic. Good stuff. What kind of config did you have for the caves?

I have my drysuit inflator on the right and BC inflator on left. This allows a way to maintain bouyancy when one tank must be isolated and or complete loss of gas due to burst tank neck seal or one uncontrolable free flow reg. Of course we can always inflate manualy but in time of stress it is nice to know we have a back up.

Thanks...I had my gear same way as pic. Suggestion was to put inflator on left post..drysuit could go on right. This would make for claener hose routing behind head. The ones I saw did look neater. We were always told also about roll off of left post. Does this happen much?
I ran my presseure gauge down inflator hose and extended it just a bit. Secured with bike tube. I liked that over clipping it or running it around drysuit hose as I am used to.

would have changed hose config for trail if I had right lengths.

I run my inflator left and dry suit right. I don't like the hoses having sharp bends if you do them the reverse way. I run my preasure gague on the left with a clip. I keeps it in tight, than on deco I let it hang and clip my tables to it. I also put 2 of my 3 timmers on it. This works for me
