Default Keeping vaccum hoses connected on ls6 intake manifold under boost

Hey guys just wondering what are you using or doing to keep vaccum lines and hoses from coming off under boost with ls1/ls6 intake manifolds? I haven't had an issue yet but I'm only @ 12#s just wondering how you guys keep things in place.

Zipties, I also tap the back of the intake and use good barb fittings so no way the hose is going to come off!

I guess proper hose slips is a silly suggestion...
