Bill, for open water setups the hose is best under the arm since you
otherwise would need some little mutant hose to make it not stick way out in
the breeze. For the real deal, the offset regulator provides the perfect fit
for a fair lead from the left reg to the mouth. Under the arm in this case
will require a huge hose and if you break the bungee, you will not find that
reg when you need it, not to mention that you also have you canister light
on the side . It open water rigs, this is not going to be a big issue with a
single tank.

Need some DIR reasoning here.
Why is running the secondary regulator hose under your arm, rather than over
the shoulder not acceptable? Under the arm would seem to be out of the way,
low profile, and reduce drag and risk of entanglement.
