There are no standard lengths for sidemount hose configurations because most experienced sidemount divers carefully optimize their sidemount rig, thus we don't offer sidemount hose "kits". The type of sidemount harness used, type of cylinders, whether the regulator low-pressure ports are fixed or swivel, plus exactly how the tanks are rigged and carried will all affect the lengths needed.

As a starting point we can only offer some observations regarding typical configurations with swivel turret regulators and aluminum 80 cylinders diving our harnesses. Many divers prefer a {60 in | 1.5 m} regulator hose for donation, but some divers still prefer the {84 in | 2.1 m} LP hose. The other side LP hose is typically { 22 in | 56 cm } but some divers find they prefer a different length that depends on how they like to route their hose. The lengths of the inflator hoses are especially sensitive to causing A-framing, but about { 22 in | 56 cm } is typical for BC hoses. High-pressure hoses are typically either { 6 in | 15 cm } or { 9 in | 23 cm } depending on how the SPG is rigged for sidemount but a few divers prefer using a { 24 in | 61 cm } HP hose.
