Now - maybe its not a troll after all... Ed, have you wrapped the longhose the correct way ? from right post under your right arm, under the battery canister (or tucked a bit in your waist strap if you dont carry a canister light.) up across the chest, behind your neck and then into your mouth. Now if somebody would grab it from behind you might get the reg ripped out of you mouth (no problem - bow your head and pick up the secondary that is hanging off the bungy just under your chin) and the only way the longhose gets tight is across your chest. So you cant get a strangling situation. Also to strangle sombody with a "rope" the diameter, bend radius and tension of a air hose, requires more that just a deliberate act. It takes skill. cheers /esse ----- Original Message ----- From: "Ed Street" <blacknet@ph*.ne*> To: "Don Burke" <donburke56@ne*.ne*>; <techdiver@aquanaut.com> Sent: den 5 juli 2001 03:35 Subject: RE: DIR setup > Hello, > > The part that gives me trouble is the long hose.
