Ever since our recent cave course my partner and I always breathe the (7 ft)
long hose, i.e. also on regular open water dives. George once told me he used
the 7 ft for dives with a planned penetration and a normal octo hose for open
water. Is there any reason why  breathing the 7 ft might not always be a good
idea?
