If its been covered elsewhere please direct me to it.

Standard configuration Right post:- Primary with 60" long hose
Wing inflation
Left post:- Secondary 24" bungied
SPG boltsnapped to L waist D link
Dry suit inflation

My question if diving "wet" with no need for suit inflation then the wing is the "primary inflation" should this go on the right or the left post?

When diving "dry" should the suit be the "primary" with the wing as the "secondary" and as such does that change the priority from where it is fed?

I've dived Dry and used to just dive the suit, keeping the wing/stab/Ablj empty. I've also dived a neoprene with just the nip taken off the suit and then flew under the wing (most cumfortable) but you are then faced with having air in 2 places.
I was wondering which was Dir compliant and why?

Thanks in advance,

BrianC
