What colour is your primary reg?

Hi guys,

Following on from the long hose thread, i'm just wondering if people highlight the primary reg as the one to take in a OOA situation?

Mines yellow like an octopus, and my secondary is black with a permanent bungee necklace.

Talking as above

Primary is in my mouth

All regs are black (It's part of the law http://www.yorkshire-divers.co.uk/fo...ons/icon10.gif )

Cool

Black with a silver front plate on a long black hose. I thought about yelloe but my O2 rich stage is yellow/green and turned off below it,s MOD so didn't want someone taking it by mistake. As already said most people will take staight from the mouth and if i'm beathing from it then it must be OK.

Ditto.

There might be some stylish grey bits mind you.

As I use a FFM so I'll be very unhappy if anyone manages to take my primary reg away from me!

Colour is not something I'd really worried about and just used the regs I have.

I DO remember from my OOA situation that one thing I DO clearly remember is spotting the yellow cover of my buddies octopus reg through the gloom. Once seen, that was the one I went for.

Yellow on long hose and just to confuse the world it runs over my left shoulder (Cyklon). Maybe confusing the world is not such a good idea in an OOA situation.............
