Best Hunter floats??

Thread Status: Hello , There was no answer in this thread for more than 60 days.
It can take a long time to get an up-to-date response or contact with relevant users.
I think that you could take the bladder out the Atoll and put a foam kick board inside it instead.

Great idea...Never thought of that but I'm sure that could work nicely.

The hunter float is about twice the size of the atoll float and could support more weight- as in more lost anchor finds.

You don't by chance know the dimensions of it? Omer's website displaying the specifics aren't very helpful (image too small to read) Could you ball park it?

I just got the Oasi-(the smaller one)...It looks pretty good but the flag pole and the flag itself is a crap....Jon how do you secure the flag to the buoy?
And for the Okipa, I've ordered 2(me and Tass) from scubastore on Jan 26 and still waiting.
 
I don't use the flag that came with it. I pulled a flag off of an old innertube float that I had and use that instead- it's much larger and taller. I hold it in place with a snorkel keeper.

I got mine for Christmas from dad..its an Imersion float..Big plastic but not so heavy. I can't find it anywhere across the web. What do you think about it?
I like your Immersion float -- I think the the French have word for that style of float (planche?). I like the slots on top, presumably for carrying spearguns out of the water (less drag, less damage to the guns). Not sure about that particular float but Apnea.co.uk in Jersey, Channel Islands (UK-ish) carry a lot of Imersion gear. [I haven't seen much Imersion gear around but the mini daga spearing knives look excellent.]
 
And here's the new Okipa 2.
Looks like a little RIB boat but it's a float. Description says it's floatable enough to let you sit on it (they don't mention pitching a tent :))

I need a new buoy and i decided to go with one of the double bladder inflated ones (more or less they are all the same thing)
Now, i found these 3 i can buy in my country (so i don't have to pay additional customs duty and VAT) :

1) Imersion Torpedo Float Double Bladder
https://www.apnea.co.uk/product_info.php?cPath=1_31&products_id=270
2) Omersub Master torpedo
https://www.apnea.co.uk/product_info.php?cPath=1_31&products_id=271
3) Picasso torpedo double bladder
Free Dive Zone :: Products :: Floats :: Picasso Double Bladder

The problem is that my country regulations say that the buoy has to be at least 10l, and i just can't find that info. for any of these floats. Can anyone help me with some info ?
