I´ve been posting this on a couple of diving forums so you might hve seen this before.

I have a slight problem with the hose routing om my rigg.
I was thinking that my config is so common (atleast in Sweden) that I can´t
be the only one with this problem which are driving me mad.
I´m diving with 2*7*232, Agir Niord 44 and apex Ds4.

(2*7*232 means double 7 liter cylinders 232 bars
wich would be equal to a double 57,4 cf cylinder)

To get the correct trim in the water I need to use the lower hole on the backplate and wing which make the top side of the wing extend all the way over the first stages. (Bear with me, I´m from Sweden English aint my mother tongue )
This makes the wing even with relatively little air in it press against the first stages and the hoses in a unsound way.

My hose routing is like the example on the pictures
(Not aloud to post url)

except mine is a little bit more in a angle to save the hoses a bit.

I also has given the weight distribution a couple of thoughts.
My bp weighs about 2,8 kg and I use 4 kg on a weightbelt wich trims me out perfect.
If I wears the tanks high wich actually is the best option do to the hose routing and valve drills then I need atleast 8 kg on the belt plus that I need to extend my legs fully to remain horizontal.
I begin to realize that Niord, D7 and my body composition do not match.
Could this be the case ?
Is my answeres D12 ?
