Re: powerbands

As a last resort you could use surgical tubing but you would really be better off contacting one of the online spearfishing suppliers Omer,Picasso,Riffe all carry bulk rubber.

Re: powerbands

Mate if your in aus look here

go to products and look at rubber and bridles the dyneema bridles are best but require the spear notches or tabs to be polished to prevent cutting dyneema after this they last ages are quiet and less likely to damage fingers than metal bridles.
