[bigkahuna]

[arysandrodossantos]

What a great tutorial Chris !
I am in the process of setting up a double roller speargun and this is one of the things that I needed to know.

This roller series of your is dope ! Can't wait for the double roller setups video to come. Safe dives amigo 👍

[Theaussylife]

Awesome work Chris! Some neat tricks, appreciate your wisdom mate. The small bore rubbers can be a pain but I think this technique will work well for them compared to entwining the bridle and load assist like the other way

[StaunchIndustries]

Another superb vid Chris! Game changing tips. Ive been re-rigging all my guns with fantastic results.

[nate_wells]

[kellykemp]

That’s freakin awesome. So good to learn new techniques. Thankyou

[keithwong]

great video. gonna try this. been having trouble with my knots popping out. hopefully its cause im using lube to put the knot it. been using 1.8mm dyneema for both load assist and bridle

Hello chris, i have a timber dual. Center wheels are 4cm apart center to center. Side wheels are 7cm center to center. Using this method im thinking to tightening the center at 3cm to end up with 4cm width. And 6cm for side wheels for 7cm width. Is this reasonable thinking?
Thanjs for the lesson.

[thewikman]

Thanks Chris! What’s your thoughts on any differences between using shafts with fins, mini tabs or notches?

[davidmills]

Another Great Video Chris. I am always thinking of the 1%ers (as you do) which add up pretty quickly and then efficiency or accuracy either decreases or increases. Whats your thoughts on the smoothness or hydrodynamics of the thicker dyneema cord (as you have just described) against using the plastic tube covering the smaller diametre dyneema cord method on the bridle.I like your method but thinking the larger diameter dyneema would have more drag thru the water when the gun is fired.

Possible to do a double uneven wishbone with a loop handle??
