Kifaru - securing water bladder hose?

[yardwork]

I'd previously been using a nalgene in a holder more than a bladder. Started putting my bladder in and noticed that there aren't any elastic straps sew in to shoulder harness sides put the hose through. I've been using a strip of velco similar to the Kifaru strap keepers to keep it in place. Any other ideas out there? Thanks

I just tied a piece of 550 cord into a loop around the webbing on the shoulder strap and run my hose through that.

Web dominator works great for a drink tube.

I just use one of those velcro things sold to keep computer wires organized...

I'll second the web dominator, that's what I've got on mine.

Damn it, I thought I invented this idea.

Thanks, guys. The web dominator looks pretty good. I'll investigate that and compare to the velco I'm already using.
Good luck.

Camelclip works for me.

I like the Velcro better, the WB can be a pain with the pack on if it comes undone

I use a velcro strip near the top of my shoulder strap to keep the tube from getting in my face. I use one of these: Hydration Water Bladder Drink Tube Trap Strap Clip Holder Buckle Hydrolink MOLLE | eBay near the bottom of my shoulder strap to hold the tube in place and allow easy access when needed.

I've used this setup for years on all my packs and have been very happy with it.

I use Velcro up top and a web dominator down low to keep the end of the hose from swinging around. Works for me.

Making a shopping list for REI and I came across this, I wonder how well they work? I'll ask one of the staff when I head over there tomorrow.

Here is one of the better prices I found for web dominators. ITW Web Dominator - MIL-SPEC MONKEY STORE

Use web dominators for drink tube and for pack strap management. They work great

I just use a small biner to secure the hose, quick and easy, silent, can come in handy for other uses too.
