Hello people

I was wondering would it be a good idea to use 2 rubbers on a pole spear for extra power (I'm currently using a land and sea 2.4 meter aluminium pole spear)

Thanks
 
interesting idea, im not sure how much power you would gain, in theory it would be twice as strong. but if it worked out that well wouldnt everyone do that ?
 
I have two rubbers on my 6 foot bamboo. More distance but less initial propulsion.

In your quest for more power (and presumably less fatigue) you may want to consider something other than two bands. We offer a pole spear resting hook, which allows you to load the spear, and then relax...when you are ready to fire, it takes just a tiny bit of effort to pop the band free and allow the spear to fire. This allows a diver to keep a very powerful pole spear band loaded for extended periods of time and eliminates the need to reload every dive.. check out the video at the bottom.

Thanks
