This is the next big thing in the realm of pneumatics: the Sporasub One Air!
It's basically an Omer Airbalete, with a re-balanced barrel shape and, most of all, it will come from factory already kitted with an in-built dry kit (looks quite like the STC X-Power).
Well, this is it. :king

It's not likely to be cheap, Fox.
First you have to count the price of an Airbalete+the price of a dry kit (they're about 100 euro). Anyway, all the R&D costs of the original Airbalete project should have been leveled down by the sales of the Airbalete itself, maybe?
Not gonna be cheap though, but the voice is that, with this Spora One Air, they've managed to fix all the original little problems of the Airbalete, so this new one is supposed to be the "ultimate" airgun this time...
Unless....somebody else does better:
a new Mares airgun should be out in 2012 too, and a new Salvimar airgun too....Lotsa stuff to come out in the farters corner...:)

The video looks to have disappeared from the original blog page. Check out the second paragraph here: Anteprime Sporasub 2012 | Pesca Sub Blog

Seems the gun is a prototype and they have now pulled the video.
 
Hello, I am the author of the article on the new airgun Sporasub, unfortunately that is a prototype and I can not publish.

I will be happy to write about this new product at the right time.
I invite you to read my blog in the coming months.
Thanks to all.

Yes it's been said that the clip was posted by mistake and then removed. Too early to unveil a product when still under testing. But....it does exist. Will see in 2012.
 
Damn, our Italian spy is back!!

Thanks for the break Spaghetti. Sporasub just released yesterday their 2012 catalog at the Apple app store.

I have not seen it yet since it only works on iPads. Has anyone downloaded it yet?

Nice one Claudio, I will have a look for it straight away....
 
Well I paid my money (.69p) but the app has failed to download - I have been advised to open it on my computer & synchronise it onto my Ipad!?
 
OK I have got the catalog working now - beautiful quolity on the Ipad + great videos too.

They seem to have some amazing speargun testing tank where the tester actually stands outside the tank! There seems to be some testing figures too but as nothing is in English I cant tell you much LOL.

I would of thought the app would be available in multi language form?
 
I have had more time to search the catalog now, some really great products, I especially liked the look of the suits.
The IPAD app allows some great functions like the way you can turn the model around & of course the videos....
No prices though & no English - still lets hope the other manufacturers follow up with their own apps?
 
Yes Don - the same vid that was at the beginning of this thread!
 
Thanks Mart.... word on the street is ....
Mares has commissioned a new R+D team..:inlove

Cheers, Don
