Couple of questions for thought and curiosity here.

Why are tanks not positioned upside down to make acces to the valve easier by reaching behind you insteade of over your head and behind you?

I can see where entaglement can be a problem with a longer hose that would be needed of course. ANything else I may be missing here?

Also noticed a pic in Alert DIver where the a divers had the tank mounted really low. (the bottom of the tank was at knee level). Where do most of you keep your tank positioned?
