    Help me with my Bailout trim.

    Hey folks! I have 2 bailout tanks. One currently filled with air and another 50%o2. I have a little issue. My tanks are hanging below me when diving. This is really annoying, since I'm often touching the bottom with the tanks. What I can see with other divers is their cylinders hang with the...

    Bailout configuration with three hoses (Apeks)

    Hi all, maybe someone came up with a sleek hose routing. I am currently running DS4s on all on by bailout tins. All of them have a 1m hose with a standard reg attached to them. The deep B/O has one hose with a QC6 connection straight to the BOV. The other B/Os have a inflator hose attached...

    Necklaced Bailout

    How do you guys set up your necklaced bailout? Hose length and hose routing? How do you deal with donation issues? Extra 2nd stage on a long hose? Go off loop, release and donate the necklaced regulator before going back on the loop? Every diver for himself? Other bright ideas? Especially if...
