WAYNE, thoroughly funny as well as outstandingly informative and perfectly demonstrated job. WELL PRESENTED. You are the CHAMP. Every of your videos are the treasures of know-how.
Yes, standard speargun rubbers do not need a bridle. The bridle is an option for roller guns as you cannot put your fingers into the muzzle to pull the rubbers for loading... or you use a so-called load assist with a little hook that engages into the wishbone in the muzzle - no bridle needed than. A matter of personal preferences. Knots into rubbers: It is possible to use just knots to hold the Dyneema inside the rubber or use cones as sold by Salvimar etc to ensure the Dyneema cannot slip out of the rubber.
@@DeepBlueSpirit2 I can't remember why I actually wrote it, I think it was something to do with being in the process of modding an old cayman of mine. Maybe I phrased it poorly it doesn't even make sense to me now, at least not without rewatching the video. Basic loading of a speargun was never an issue though, I've been spearfishing for more than a decade =.O
At 5:45 he states he made the rubbers 1/2 the barrel length. 90cm gun gets 45cm rubbers. He prefaces this with a use what the manufacturer recommends. Not sure if that is length or diameter.
Very informative! can you give any tips for rigging roller guns like the aimrite fury carbon where the pre-tension bridle has to go through the trigger guard/hole? I find it pretty hard to to get the line through to tie the knot whilst holding the whole thing under tension.
Thanks for the video. One question is have you ever had problems with the bridle knot pulling out of the rubber? I had this happen the other day, jumped in the water, loaded up, started swimming to my spot n bang- knot pulled out! Lucky i had a spare gun n rubbers in the boat. Why did this happen? I use a vice to tension my constrictor knot too.
Hey @fish hunter, it's not usual for that to happen, however, if it is happening it's most likely that the knots are just too small. Try using thicker dyneema, or depending on what you're using, you may just need bigger knots. 😃
Very nice. It's not necessary, after having a few knots pop out of my bands, I settled on the marlinespike hitch to help pull the constrictor as tight as it will ever need to be: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marlinespike_hitch. Both practical and historical value.

Amazing Video... thanks

great explanations thanks
good skill of rollergun, thank you much for your sharing
Excellent video!!
Great video !!!
Muito bem explicado, muito bom vídeo obrigado
Thank you, legend!
Would you use just knots and no bridle with a standard non-roller spear gun as well?
Yes, standard speargun rubbers do not need a bridle.
The bridle is an option for roller guns as you cannot put your fingers into the muzzle to pull the rubbers for loading... or you use a so-called load assist with a little hook that engages into the wishbone in the muzzle - no bridle needed than. A matter of personal preferences.

With load assist no need for a bridle.
On a standard speargun no need for a pulling bridle - just grab the rubbers and load.
Seer Seerwealth correct :)

i have cm barrel size salvimar ... what is the best rubber length for it ? thanks from ph
Nice walk though thanks👍
Great Vid - thanks for uploading
Well done !
Finally a video on how to make roller bands, can you make a video explaining how to measure the band length ?
Hey Kanti! That's a great idea, we'll keep that one in mind.
At 5:45 he states he made the rubbers 1/2 the barrel length. 90cm gun gets 45cm rubbers. He prefaces this with a use what the manufacturer recommends. Not sure if that is length or diameter.
@@ADRENO any video about that?
@@dinos8557
GENERAL RULE is 1/2 a length of the tube, plus 10cm, each rubber.
Always can cut it shorter, not longer.;-)
@@Seerwealth is that for roller head ? It's confusing and difficult to find the correct info online.

Use assistant.
Bom vidio cara obrigado

it has happened to me ever.I found the knot inside rubber that is too small,just makd a bigger one.

Yeah I've made the same exact bridle with 3mm spectra and 2mm dyneema and have had it pop out 3 times now. What did you end up doing?
maybe your constrictor not isn't done correctly.
1) Your knot inside the rubber is too small, 2) your constrictor not was not tight enough.
So how would you figure out pre tension if you were to build your own gun?
with a simple math.
@@Seerwealth might want to know simple English before your try to be smart. It’s a legitimate question considering it’s a “how to” video...
Boas ,quantos cm tem de ter o elástico para uma arma de 90cm obrigado.
Figure og 8 comstrictor hitch and single sheet bend knot
Thanl\k you...
What size dyneema is used in the video?
Hey, Wayne uses 2mm dyneema in the video.
Bridle slows down spear about 10-15%. Best is load assist tool.
yeah, it's also great when you lose it and can't use the speargun anymore in the same outing lol
4:33 that's what she said
Woodprix plans are amazing!
