bcd setup.

Hi all, I just received my Hydros women's Xsmall-small BCD. I have questions about where should the waist band sit and the possibility to make should strap longer. I'm 5'7" (170cm) 120lbs (55kg) with long torso short legs. When hiking, it's always a problem for me to find a backpack that fits...
