Apex DST make for nice house routing on stages. DS4s are cheaper. Both work well. Apex regs from the TX40 and up are great. They have a +/- setting which can prevent free flow but at a flip of a leaver give low breathing resistance.

Hose length is normal for normal diving (just like OC) but if your doing wreck penetration or cave a 2m hose is preferred.

If you put a stage on the left you will need the hose to be long enough to go round your neck and into your mouth. If not you will need a reg that can be used form either side like a Poseidon

DIN is less likely to have an 0 ring failure than A clamp, so preferred but not essential

6" 150mm hoses for the SPG are nice and tidy
