Mares Californian

[poildeq]

Hello

I am from Canada and travel to Cuba every 2 months to spearfish.
I bought from a Garage sale a Mares Californian that seems like all the O-rings are gone, I have ordered from Scuba's World the replacement parts, I plan to repair it. However having read about the various mod to improve the accelaration of the shaft with the Tomba the Tovarich and the Kora-yo I would like to buy 1 of these kits anyone actually and try it on the Californian. Can anyone on the forum suggest a North American or European distributor for any of these kits where I can purchase it or if there is anyone on the Forum who manufactures them, I would also buy it from them.

Thanks.

Forum member Tromic (DeeperBlue Forums - View Profile: tromic) is the inventor of the Tomba. I don't know if he has developed a commercial initiative for distribution. But you may contact him through the forum. Just click on the link above to his Deeperblue user's page.

How do you want to use that gun? With 8 mm or 7 mm shaft? "Free shaft" or normal shaft (with line slider)? I suggest 7 mm, normal shaft.
With "normal shaft" you could use Tomba12, Kara-yo, STC X-power.
With "free shaft" you could use TombaF7, Tovarich, Evo-Air, STC X-power. [FONT=&quot]
