Thank you very much for this video, worked like a charm didn't have to splice a thing.

[@konafreediversreviews1175]

You're welcome! So happy to hear it. Thanks for the props!

[@jamescrist7060]

Connor Thank you for your help really appreciate it GREAT job

[@konafreediversreviews1175]

Shoots brah!

[@DAD-yf6fi]

I didn't know that hollow line would float. I definitely want to try that this year. Do you think It'll be ideal for pole spears?

[@andreabolding5281]

Very cool.
I thought this rope degrades badly in the sun

[@Akamaifarms]

Sick Conor, we go dive soon!

[@konafreediversreviews1175]

Shoots!

[@robdubois3844]

Thanks for the tip! What thickness is that/do you recommend? 1/4 inch? 3/16 inch?

[@konafreediversreviews1175]

3-16 is good. The thicker it is the more durable and stiffer it will be. The thinner it is the less space it takes up. Depends on your prey and how long you make it.

[@cebolafn]

Just wondering does the line never get caught on fins, when I dive I go around 30 feet deep and have a 40 feet line. But when I go into shallower water(10 feet for example) the line gets somewhat loose and messes around with my feet. I was wondering if there is anithing I can do to fix it or if this is normal wirh any buoy line

[@konafreediversreviews1175]

Some lines tend to be a bit stiffer and won't wrap around you as easily. You could check out the reef rope. That's usually a good inexpensive option.

Why not just make the Brummel splice since your halfway there?

[@konafreediversreviews1175]

That's an excellent suggestion Alejandro. The brummel splice adds more complexity and this solution works just fine while also being simple and sufficient.

[@ReelCatcheeeHi]

I live in kona awesome vid where do you get clips from

[@konafreediversreviews1175]

We sell them in the shop @ g.page/konafreedivers?share have you been in before?

[@davidjones9706]

did this today! 8.50 for 50ft!

[@konafreediversreviews1175]

Nice! That's a great deal

[@grinflur]

Why not tie a knot?

[@konafreediversreviews1175]

That's a great point! This is sleaker and moves the the water better.
