    what speargun's length to choose?

    can you describe your hunting enviroment a little more Pavel? a 90cm gun is mostly used for reef work 1.1m gives you more range in open water, and coveres the reef well 1.3m guns are reserved for open/bleuwater application. if you have to ask questions about length I will assume you are...

    Spare Air Question

    so you only pack your spare air 40' and shallower? I show up for every scuba dive, dressed for my maximums. if I'm solo this is 115ft. a 3cu.ft. bailout is not enought to get me safely to the surface, with a safety stop in the event of a primary gas failure. for this I pack a AL30 bailout...

    Spare Air Question

    I tell my students not buy something to fix a problem that shouldn't exoist in the first palce. maintain at least 500psi in your cylinder stay close to your buddy one will always fix the other. for those situations that you "get seperated" you should look to your piss poor diving...

    Spearfishing

    ok, I concede, you JBL or biller will out penitrate, but only inside a meter or two before the lumbering slow, high drag spear slows down. I've owned a 450XHD, and a 120cm Euro will shoot farther, faster, and out penitrate (at range) every time. 600# ? who's specs are you using? 3 20mm...

    Spearfishing

    Hard to belive you keep persisting with your obliviously antiquated, ignorant information on Euro guns! I will reply to this from a purely freedive Spearos perspective (as I have 12yrs of this under my belt in 5 countries) because that’s what our debate surrounds. Hmmm…. Where to start...

    Spearfishing

    Euroguns are currently made in Aluminum, Titanium, teak and Carbon Fiber many people hunting around mixed reef/open water will put 2x16mm on a Euro, Vs. the single 20mm, giving them the option of powering down. Florida freedivers (one example) stocks many euro guns and parts. I can...
