Ranging from 5 ft (1.5 m) to 7 ft (2.1 m) in length, these interstage hoses connect the first and second stages of a scuba regulator, allowing for increased flexibility and safety during challenging dives. This entry will discuss the history, purpose, and proper usage of long hoses, as well as their advantages and potential disadvantages."}
