Subject: Long and short reg hose configurations
Just two questions:

Is there a way of "securing" the long hose so it stays close to the body 
if one does not have a hip mounted battery canister to put it behind?

Are there several different kinds of metal "elbow" joints for use at the 
end of the short hose by the second stage?  I have only seen one kind, it 
has a ball joint in the middle and hence the reg is free to move in any 
direction.  I'm thinking that a fixed angle and a single swivel by the 
second stage would be better, but do they exist, and how would they be 
tightened and aligned wrt to the hose?

Thanks.

Egil.
