    Cool kinda short!

    I did not know there were 3inch hoses out there but I can tell you personally I just took up sidemount and at least Lamar and Dive Rite are getting away from wrapping the bungee around the valve and using a stage kit and clipping in to the bungee using a slight smaller bungee which really secures your gas to the rig it helps your bottles actually stay on your side instead of kinda ridding up directly underneath your arms. If you go on Dive Rites website and go to the blog area click on the nomad section and Lamar a an entry about using this new method. I learned it from him at a Demo day it works great. I said all that to say this I currently have 6 inch hoses and I feel like 9 inch hoses would really put my gages where I want them, but then again everybody has there own personal preference. Good luck with sidemount I love it.
