Thanks for finally addressing the WKPP sidemount issue. I've been 
trying to find this out for awhile now. So hope you won't mind 
answering a few more questions.

interesting setup.. Makes sense.

Your still using a long hose on sidemounts? Isn't the routing 
awkward? Why run a long hose with this configuration?? Doesn't it 
make more sense to just hand a tank off in an OOA situation.

Does the canister light on your right hip get in the way of tank there?

I would really like to see a photo of the is on the website...
