If u r talking bout the low pressure hose, i fully agree, its to short.
I had to use a standard hose myself. The corrugated hose is a bit
short aswell imho. I can not use the bungee at the same place as
the left d-ring. Have experimented with height on the backplate and=20
different hoses from the first stages. That said, its the best wing out=20
there.

  Subject: Halcyon inflator hose too short


  I have been trying to help, via email, a non tech diver subscriber =
setup his backplate/wing.  He tells me the problem is that the inflator =
hose is too short i.e. it sits next to his clavicle, so he can't inflate =
his wing and add air to his dry suit at the same time.  Apparrently he =
has very broad shoulders.....

  Sounds like the wing is mounted too low on the backplate to me, but =
does anybody have any other ideas/experiences ?

  Regards,

  Simon Murray
