    Question Sherwood Reg and Inflater hose

    I saw at my LDS a sherwood reg that is inline with the inflater hose. this way i could drop my octo and hose and use my 2nd stage to share with a diver if they had troubles. I like the idea of less hose's. I was wondering if any of you use this setup.

    I have used tried that reg. IT is absolute shyte. The worst flat-low-profile octo ever. Both the shadow and its non-inflator counterpart, the minmus breath pretty crappy. not alot less than 2-2.5" of water. (by comparison your blizzard/magnum/oasis is about 1" of water...)
    I would stick with the standard octo. Breathes like a magnum.
