Getting the set up correct for sidemount diving is a tricky business. There are lots and lots of tweaks that you have to do. Steve Lewis, over at Doppler’s Tech Diving Blog, gives a fantastic discussion on how to make adjustments so that the cylinders line nicely along your body.

Check out his post. I particularly like the diagrams with explanations of the common problems and how to fix them.
