Anyone slinging/sidemounting steel 72s for bailout/OC deco?
That 9L in euros isn't it?
I sling a pair of steel Faber 7Ls from chest (outside of C/L) to waist on the YBOD and they hang down nicely, stay below so they don't get between me and the valves for those OMGIGTD moments and are well behaved to unclip and hand around in mid-water (although I've only done that on a course).
The valves sit just where I want them and the regs/whips are snoopied and I label them on the inside edge as that's the easiest one to see.
In fact I like the things in as much as I'd like anything that I hope is just along for the ride. They lie under me and point in the direction I'm going so that seems reasonably streamlined - although something with a chunky Apeks reg on the sharp end is hardly going to score low on that point.
