Are you saying you don't like to lick the green stuff from the inside of your mouth piece during those long boring aspettos?

hehehe it's a futile mental exercise, kinda like meditation
-
I'm concerned how it will track through chop, the float line connection is too high. Also the balance of it once things inside shift over to one side. But it certainly looks like the next best thing (commercially available) to a Banks Board.

You can do anything if you can make yourself stop thinking of the white gorilla
-
If you actually needed a snorkel and had the same one available in black, green, red, blue and white, can you really see yourself forking out the cash and taking the white? Not trying to convince or criticize, just looking for a serious answer. It's true white is most visible at depth looking down from the top. A lot of speargun handles are white, makes the gun easy to spot in dirty water.

You guys never go home empty handed.
-
Would you use a white snorkel? If it was a good simple design, not like this scuba snorkel, and reasonably priced. Any advantages to white?

It comes with time. You go diving again and again and nothing happens and you eventually get tired of worrying and start relaxing. That's the only way I know. But I heard said that if you take a freediving course, it will immediately give you the confidence to dive 60ft+. And once you're fully immersed in the zen of freediving (and by this I mean purposeless diving) you can even ride orcas as well as other interesting marine animals.
-
If you have an urge to breath then surface, don't force yourself. You should feel relaxed and not have an immediate need to breath. If that's not the case then you're pushing yourself beyond what you're ready for.
It's mostly ok down there until a big shark or in your case an Orca bites a leg off
-
Coil the float line. It's so habitual for me that by the time I'm done coiling 80ft of line my breathing is normalized and I'm just about ready to take a few deeper breaths and dive again.

Not at this time Sadot. The Reef camo pattern is the flagship of the Speardiver wetsuit line, so I'm focusing on offering long sizes and warm water suits in this camo. It's really an exceptional pattern that blends perfectly with many types of sea bottom.
A local diver sent me this pic, it's either Fort Lauderdale or Hollywood.

It's not a precise way to measure the threading but it gives you an idea. In this case looks like the 14-1mm adapters I linked to in my previous post.
-
It's probably 16mm-1. Let me know if that's right and I'll make it available in the store 14mm-1 Euro Muzzle Band Adapters
-
You'll have to provide the correct thread specification. Probably by 20mm thread you mean that the gun is using a 20mm band.

Snapper.
We caught this guy H+L at night in the keys during mini season (snapper spawn) since he was such a badass we released him to live a 3rd life.

Pleasure to see those pics.
That's one for the http://spearfishing.world/gene…n/1357-fish-injuries.html thread. Good on you for letting him go.

Looks like you mean business! Fish beware

Welcome to Speardiver.
I'd like to see the full size image of your avatar
I could be mistaken but that looks like a Speardiver wetsuit. -
It does. But there are no freebies in physics. What you gain in one area you will lose in another. In the case of a roller perhaps a little more recoil control for approximately the same size gun. It's offset by relatively complicated and slower loading, and the overall bulkiness of the gun to carry. If you consider the size stock necessary for a well designed roller, you'll see there's plenty of mass to control recoil in a conventional speargun set up with the same power.
-
Chase, in terms of power all a roller speargun is, is a conventional band gun turned on its side, try to visualize it if you can't get your hands on both spearguns. What roller speargun enthusiasts consider single band in a roller, is really a 2 band conventional speargun. A double band roller is a 4 band conventional speargun. The increase in power is pure myth, you can't get more power than the bands you have. As a matter of fact you're getting less band stretch with a roller depending on where the bands are anchored on the bottom.
Still Seal's is a well designed beautiful gun, with obviously a lot of work and thought put into it.
