George:

I have never seen a fatality report in which stowing the long hose was the
cause or even a contrbuting factor of the fatality.  Have you?
A lot of what we all would consider to be a safe practice is taken from
accident analysis reports. Most often when a peice of equipment, style or
practice is free from any serious or life threading problems based on past
performace then it is considered safe.

A properly stowed hose and I emphasize properly, will give the diver full
access to his valves while protecting the hose from entanglements and will
reduce the risk of damage to the hose. Would I consider this safe?   yes    


Take Care
John
