[spearguy360]

does anyone here ever use surgical rubber as a powerband cause i cant get ahold of any of the real stuff due to my loocation in new york if anyone has used this and has any suggestions please respond

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.

 

[spearguy360]

yea thats a good idea but i cant put my credit card online so im basiccally going with the surgical tubing unless anyones got stuff they dont need or want anymore lol!

why do you need a cc? surely theres someone in the US that accepts another form of payment.

 

[spearguy360]

cash would be my main form of payment???? does anyone have any old stuff they dont need lol jp

 

[guide1]

what about a money order? cant you just send cash? or do a bankdeposit? (im not from the US (AUS))

I suggest you 19mm latex, ı use 19mm really powerfull and durable and per food 2.75$. You live in origin of latex, use rope or steel for wishbone

you dont want the stuff thats clear in the middle, its not as powerful imo

 

[spearguy360]

yeah can u buy that kind of stuff at diveshops and stuff or will they not carry it???

 

[guide1]

only one way to find out.

 

[spearguy360]

good point lol

no a quick questin for a float would a soda bottle work or no?

 

[guide1]

i guess so, but if you wanted a cheap float a polystyrene one would be better and will cost sweet FA

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.
