    Atomic Aquatics Regulator Setup

    Well, here I am at 1am reconfiguring my B2 after seeing this. It just makes sense. We'll see how it all works out in the water. I know it's an old post, but worthy of attention. I always thought it seemed awkward using that bottom port unless it was for a pony bottle or something. I didn't...

    Is the T3 a worthy upgrade over the B2?

    Actually, I made a thread about it, with a video. Here ya go: https://scubaboard.com/community/threads/atomic-regulator-hissing-is-this-normal.584630 I'm pretty sure I did end up going back to the shop, after those last comments. I don't distinctly recall. I want to say they replaced the seat...

    Is the T3 a worthy upgrade over the B2?

    Thanks guys. I suppose I'll hold onto the B2! I was in the shop today looking at a T3 while my buddy and I waited on his tanks and I couldn't help but want it lol I did have some issues with the B2's tuning after the last service at a shop I hadn't been to before. Took it back and it's...

    Is the T3 a worthy upgrade over the B2?

    I've had a B2 for nearly 15 years and it's a great regulator. I can get 20% off a $1900 T3 if I trade in my B2. Would you guys consider switching to a T3 or are the differences subtle enough to where I should just keep chugging along with my B2/Z3 octo combo? This is for saltwater Florida diving.

    What would you use this pole spear for in Florida?

    Just got a speargun, but have never speared a fish before. I've also had this old pole spear in the garage for years that I got from a friend and never used. I want to get a new band for it and maybe put it to use as I learn how to hunt. The shaft measures about 5 feet, and about 5'10" total...

    First speargun - Never used one

    I wish I had made the shaft loop just a HAIR longer though as it rubs slightly when seating it in the trigger mechanism, but does lock into place. Local shop only had the Riffe 300lb 30ft mono kit which comes with one end already crimped and only 1 extra crimp to complete the other end. $10 for...

    First speargun - Never used one

    What is the clip for just forward of the fixed tab MAKO was talking about? Also, I did end up tucking that line under. It just doesn't always stay with 4 lines running under it. I have a single wrap now and it works better. Thanks for the write-up Cuzza! I appreciate all the insight. As I'm...

    First speargun - Never used one

    Thank you guys for all of the advice. I really appreciate it. I decided to remove the reel and set it aside for a possible future freediving adventure. I'm going to hit the local dive shop tomorrow and see if I can get a muzzle bungee/shock cord, and a stringer. I like the idea of a clip as...

    First speargun - Never used one

    Yeah sharks are really my only concern haha No worried about them while diving of course, but I don't typically carry dead fish with me. Would you recommend starting out with a single wrap to reduce shot length? After you shoot, do you just grab the shooting line to pull the fish in closer? I...

    First speargun - Never used one

    Oh interesting. That makes sense. I guess it doesn't hurt to leave it rigged as-is in case I want to spearfish in shallow water eventually and learn to freedive? Do you run a rope on the stringer or do you keep it close to your body? Is something like this what you're talking about?
