Question Which Apeks XTX on stages
I have a couple of choices in mind for my bailout stages but thought I would ask views on here given the diving that I "think" I might end up doing. Currently Mod 3 ccr & have been down to 60metres but am looking to progress slowly downwards ,maybe 100m maybe more just depends .
So which are suitable or more suitable please ?

1st stages either the DS4 or the FSR or 1 of each & use the FSR on deep bailout with the DS4 on the rich mix ?

2nd stages either the XTX40 or XTX50 ? only difference is the cracking resistance knob but is it a good idea to have & wind it up a little tight to help prevent freeflows ?

I would be using 1hp & 2 lp ports on each first stage ,any problems with hose routing on either 1st ?

TIA

If you use DST's on stages, all of the routing issues just melt away.....
