      Spot on. It's many things improving roller performance compared to a conventional gun. Longer propulsion distance, prestretch (preload), less recoil etc. Smooth acceleration, i.e. acceleration of the shaft over a longer period of time would probably be the biggest factor.

      Is less recoil coming from the bands retracting towards the handle and not away from it like on a conventional? Because the shaft will still generate recoil being pushed away from the gun.

      @isaacheimbach1089 Maybe you mean the same but "equally" is probably less of a correct term than what Aegan above proposed which is that that shaft gets loaded up over a longer distance. So, even if for argument's sake we say a 2 banded classic gun would have the same power input it would happen over a shorter distance and hence recoil would be felt more and possibly unsettle the shaft more. Also, as was eluded too by another commenter, the fact the bands move opposite than the shaft and opposite classic setups is very much why there's less recoil in a "pulley roller". Another factor is the very high handle placement which aligns recoil better than most guns except some Euro pipe guns. And yep, that handle and cutout at the rear was an Abellan feature and used by Orca with his blessing as I understand.
      As for it taking time to dial it in, that's likely very true. The Orcas do seemed tuned well. The makers seem like standup people and great spearos so deserve their success.

    Hey Daniel.
    We are a company that manufactures wooden invert roller spearguns and what you say about the recoil is 100% true. A lot of manufacturers falsely advertise about zero recoil which is totally wrong. In fact the recoil is a little less than half of what it would be if this exact speargun had the same rubber bands set up on top as a conventional speargun and the reason is what you mentioned later in the video. You get a 1:2 transmission ratio between the bands and the shaft. That halves the acceleration of the spear shaft which means half the acceleration of the speargun on the opposite direction too, which is the recoil we feel. I say that the recoil is a little less than half because the rubber bands are on the bottom and are moving on the opposite direction of the shaft which reduces the recoil a little more.
    Also the fact that the you have a transmission ratio of 1:2 doesn't actually mean that the shaft will get double the speed. Because the power of the rubber bands is exactly the same. What actually happens is you have half the acceleration of the conventional set up but the shaft accelerates for a bigger duration because you use almost the whole length of the speargun to propel the shaft which ends up giving you more speed on the shaft, if the speargun is set up correctly. But it definitely is not double the speed.
    Cheers from Greece!

      Hey Adrian, i think, you misunderstood what he is saying. He is not telling speed is the double of conventional guns, but on the setup itself, the shaft will move with two times the speed with which the bands will contract. That follows from the geometrycal boundary conditions. When pulley bound to bands moves x, the rope pulling the pulley needs to move 2x, this is a geometrical boundary so no discussion here.
      If you want to calculate the recoil power you consider the boundary conditions + momentum balance and setup the energy equation of the speargun as a system. If you want to be very precise, you consider the friction coefficients of every roller in the system + of the dyneema.

      That video series is great! It won't have a very different performance than standard rollers as far as acceleration/velocity goes, but the total kg load would be higher than in a monoroller since it basically has 1,5 bands (3 bands/2) instead of 1 that the monoroller has. Combined with a bit lower friction and better shaft release from the wishbone, it would shoot better. But probably not better than a double roller.

    • @AntiVaganza

      ​@@aegeanenjoyer668 I think I agree though part of me also think the roller crowd has underestimated losses in the bands going over the rollers. I think a lot of them think they have great powerful guns, but in reality they have less recoil which leads to better precision (great) and more power going into the shaft instead of the hand. But it's been proven that a perfectly fitted custom ergo grip on a classic gun will tame recoil from even very high powered classic guns. So, a classic gun with a custom handle - despite the shorter effective band pull - is still a very strong contender.

      @aegeanenjoyer668 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @@AntiVaganza Absolutely, I remember a spearboard member's tests on this with setups like 2x14,5mm at 3.8 stretch. Which also increases band pull. It really depends on the setup. For example a 7mm invert might be somewhat slow and not worth for its loading effort compared to even a light single roller, but with a lighter shaft it could work great. Then there are other types of guns like fusion, which kind of combines the two. Roller definitely have an issue with their muzzles though, shaft's tail is slightly lifted and at long shots they do lose some accuracy.

    @aegeanenjoyer668 ปีที่แล้ว +11

    Inverts (polispasts) having higher shaft speed is a myth. They have the same as rollers and in fact have less initial shaft speed that traditional guns. Smooth acceleration (and a couple other things, like higher kg load, pretension/preload, and longer propulsion distance) is what gives rollers and polispasts much more power. They basically develop more force + they lose their stored energy slower (i.e. they sustain it better). Ergo they travel farther away, but the shaft speed is pretty much the same - it is just sustained for longer.
    This has been measured with tools (in the channel of Spearfish gr I reckon. Title is "traditional vs roller speargun" or something similar).
    Theoretically, if the bands contracted slower it would mean they have to pull a 2x heavier shaft. But they don't, the shaft is the same as it would be in a classical three-band. What happens is that the bands go through 2x the dyneema length through the pulleys, at the same speed. The bands don't contract slower, they just contract for half (-50%) of the distance they would in a standard roller or a full invert without pulleys. It's distance covered, not speed, that changes compared to a non-pulley speargun. Basically what a couple other spearos said in the comments.
    Hope everything is understandable :) english is my second language
    EDIT: Anyone wanting to check shaft velocity himself can go to the calculator created by Spiller, J. (2021) in his scientific study. Measures velocity, penetration, recoil and other things.

    • @AndrianBLUE
      @AndrianBLUE ปีที่แล้ว +2

      My friend...
      In your first paragraph you say something that has no logic at all... You say that invert roller spearguns have same or less speed but the shaft travels further because it sustains the energy for longer.... You do not understand physics at all.... From the moment the shaft has stopped being pushed from the rubber bands or the dyneema line it starts decelerating. It doesn't matter in what way it accelerated. Only 3 things matter. Exit speed, drag resistance, weight. Since drag resistance and weight are the same (we are talking about the same shaft) the only variable that will affect how long the shaft will go is the exit speed. Nothing else. So the only way the shaft can travel further is if it has higher exit speed. Simple physics.
      Also you say that invert rollers are more powerful because of a bunch of reasons but with same or lower shaft speed.. Wrong. The kinetic energy of the shaft is what matters. The formula is
      K.E=1/2*m*v^2.
      So from what you can see the only 2 variables that affect the shaft's kinetic energy is it's mass and it's speed. So for the shaft to have more kinetic energy (which means more penetration) it has to have higher speed, since its mass is not changing...
      You clearly don't understand the physics behind a moveable pulley system.... The bands contract at half the speed that the shaft is moving. This is a fact. That is what the moveable pulley system does... The moveable pulley moves half the distance that the shaft will move during the contraction of the bands. So since the shaft moves double the distance the pulley does in the same amount of time this means that the shaft moves with double the speed in comparison to the pulley which means with the bands since the bands pull the pulley directly. This is not up for discussion...
      Please study the physics first and then try to give information about the subject.

    • @aegeanenjoyer668
      @aegeanenjoyer668 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@AndrianBLUE The issue here is that I too used to think that inverts have higher speed which would explain their better shots, but when measured, it turned out they don't. What they have is mainly smoother acceleration. There are no other vids besides Bekas' testing this, Rob Allen already tested rollers (found the same thing as Bekas: no higher speed, just smoother acceleration) and he's about to test inverts too. Guess we'll see if his results are similar to Bekas.
      A roller and an invert have about the same max shaft speed with a classic gun. You are free to conduct your own tests and show otherwise. Physics doesn't disagree with this either since you can increase acceleration without increasing speed (or mass). Maybe it's you who doesn't understand physics? Because there's no other explanation, currently all tests have shown no higher speed than classic guns. With this piece of proof we can deduct that the theory of rollers and inverts having higher speed is a myth, and any physics law used to explain this is simply misused since physics can't be wrong - the only one who can be wrong is one making a claim that does not agree with empirical testing.
      Anecdotally it makes sense too. A double roller will have about the same performance as a three-banded invert, when the two guns having the same shaft mass and the same kg load on the shaft (let's say 60 or 70). If inverts had double shaft speed then inverts would shoot MUCH farther with the same kg load and shaft mass. But they don't. And there's no pulley in rollers "doubling their speed" and yet a 2x14mm roller shoots astronomically better than a simple 2x14mm gun.
      As for band contraction, I think we disagree on semantics and not on the subject. The material of the bands and the weight does not change so their contraction speed does not change but the speed at which they cover distance does. Different phrasing, same thing.
      It's basically half that of a normal roller, so if that's doubled in the shaft, then the max speed remains the same as in a roller or in a classic gun. Even in the scenario where the shaft speed is doubled, the max speed remains the same as in a roller or classic, lol. Good luck proving it's double than roller shaft speed (and basically quadruple than that of rollers and classic guns).
      You're free to ask Bekas about this and then conduct your own tests. I'll be coming back to this comment when mr Allen publishes his results on inverts.

    • @aegeanenjoyer668
      @aegeanenjoyer668 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I forgot to add: This isn't a conversation about whether invert or roller shaft speed is doubled compared to classic guns. Tests have already been conducted about this and the theory that they do have double speed was falsified. This is how the scientific method works, if your theory does not agree with reality then the problem lies with your theory, not reality.
      We are merely theorizing about why this happens - greater power with similar maximum speed.
      As for physics, f=ma would account for the force of the shaft at a given moment. If you combine all moments (let's say per second) you'll find the force of the roller and invert gun being higher due to smoother deceleration. In other words, they shed less (a) and this in turn allows them to shed less kinetic energy, and maintain it better. Net force per second (N/s) applied on the shaft is higher in rollers and inverts, including because of preload. Net force charges the object with KE (you can read this exact sentence in Britannica). KE=f^2. Rollers and inverts are charged (i.e. force is applied to their shafts) over a longer period of time and lose energy slower. Ergo they achieve better shots because the spear can maintain it's speed better.
      I did a quick search and there are studies out on this. Look up Worthington, J. (2017) to see how much the load (N) is increased in rollers compared to classic guns. Then check out Spiller, J. (2021) to see how muzzle velocity of rollers is 33 m/s (39.9 m/s with a booster), same measurement as Bekas and Rob Allen found (and lower than a classic gun). So we already know that 130cm double rollers who shoot at 7m have about as much muzzle velocity as a classic gun with a similar force load (N) and shaft mass. You can also see how he measured a roller+booster with 304J of spear energy and a three-banded invert with 312J of spear energy at 39.9 m/s and 40.4 m/s muzzle velocities respectively, with a 7mm shaft. The penetration was also the same (38 and 39 cm).
      Even with an overpowered invert, there's no double speed. This is official physics research, so please educate yourself before getting all upset on youtube comments.
      Nonetheless, dive safe :)

    • @aegeanenjoyer668
      @aegeanenjoyer668 ปีที่แล้ว

      Also: I tried the speargun calculator from Spiller (2021), thought I'd mention the results. A 2x16mm roller comes up as having the same muzzle velocity as a 4x16mm invert (1 doubled main pair + 2 additional pairs). Both guns have 1kg mass (a conventional tube gun), 1m loading length with 1.25m 8mm shafts. Muzzle velocity is 32 m/s and 32.3 m/s respectively, and remains almost equal (equally decreasing) up to 8 meters. The invert has 18% higher recoil, but I assume less friction (which is not calculated).
      Give it a try, you'll like it.
      EDIT: Managed to get the invert to shoot faster than the roller, at 1m/s and 1cm extra penetration (consistently from muzzle to 8m). 2kg mass, 1.2m loading length, 1.45m shaft length 8mm, 338J (roller) and 360J (invert) on the shaft.
      Roller is 2x16mm, invert has the more common 1x19mm (not doubled) + 2x18mm. All bands at 310% stretch and the 19mm at 320-330%.

      Nah, on guns like these, the reel sits on a U-shaped bracket. Imagine the U lying down with the open end towards the muzzle - the bands slide in there to hook onto their attachment points. Back in the day, some builders didn't have this bracket and would either end the bands in front of the reel losing a lot of band pull length or you'd have to pull the bands over the reel which was possibly cumbersome.

    Do you really need a gun that shoot in a distance of 6m? or better to improve your ambrush/aguatto technic and fish will come closer?
    I had personally roller, tried it for a year and after I switched to conventional C4 Mr Carbon. Way way less pain loading it, amazing precise and enough power to shot almost anything in Greece. (Ofc we don't talking here about 50kg tuna etc).
    Do you feel recoil from the gun? - as Jobs said 'you just hold it wrong'.

    • @aegeanenjoyer668

      Rollers have a larger learning curve and they're trendy so many will buy a couple but never use them.
      I'm Greek and many here use rollers and inverts. However we use shorter guns (85-95cm) for aspetto. The firepower doesn't exceed 5m usually. That's ideal for 750gr-1kg sargo as well as goldblotch groupers, barracuda and other fish, while keeping the gun very maneuverable.

    • @DanielMann
      @DanielMann  ปีที่แล้ว +3

      I’ve made over 100 timber guns since 2005. Eventually I ended up making fully composite spearguns. Mainly due to the design limitations of timber and the maintenance. All of Tim’s Riffe euros were water logged when I met him. They would get so heavy at the end of the day and bone dry after drying out. I finished them with clear epoxy and the gun performed way better. I do like the look of timber but I’m a practical man and less maintenance the better!

    Would you recommend roller guns for those who have difficulty loading other speargun models? (I had chest pain+difficulty loading a Rob Allen tuna gun even though my 3mm wet suit had a chest pad on it 😖)

    • @DanielMann
      @DanielMann  ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Hey Jade, I’d say go for thinner bands than a roller. Normal rollers can be quite difficult to load. Twin 14mm bands should be easier to load on the Rob Allen and provide plenty of punch.

    • @KristianGrSl
      @KristianGrSl ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I don't know what kind of fish you are hunting, but a speargun with two 14 mm bands and a slightly thinner spear, like the RA Snapper or Mahi, would be easier to load than a Tuna and would be great for hunting many species. You can also get spears with a resting tab midway on the shaft which can make loading even easier.
      Rollers are great but expensive and not necessarily easier to load. They also have more parts that can break. I'm sure the Orca 115v is an awesome speargun, but it looks like a "ship of the line" of rollers with block and pulley systems and lots of ropes :) If the lines gets tangled or one breaks it looks like it could be complicated to fix compared to a normal speargun or even a standard roller speargun.
      That said I do use rollers myself (Rob Allen Timberline 90 and 110) and I love them. They shoot like a dream. Another thing I personally like about the Rob Allen spearguns is that they do not use a reverse trigger mechanism. This means that a 90 cm RA will be a bit longer than 90 cm speargun from other brands, but it also means that the loading tabs on the spear is a but further from your chest making it easier to load.
      If you are really struggling listen to this Noob Spearo podcast where Rochele Davey is talking about loading spearguns (starting around 42m 40s).

    • @KristianGrSl
      @KristianGrSl ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Oh and if you still have access to the RA Tuna it wouldn't cost a lot to try putting 14 mm bands and a 7 mm spear on it :)

    • @aegeanenjoyer668
      @aegeanenjoyer668 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I'd say get a fusion speargun, without pulleys. This is called a fusion 1 or fusion 2 and is less complicated than an invert roller. They have a band on top and load very easily but are also much more powerful than a traditional 2-band speargun.
      For a setup I'd suggest an aluminium 90-100cm gun (reverse mechanism is best), with a 7mm shaft (25+cm overhang for easier aim), harder to get bent upon rock impact too.
      For bands go for a 1x16mm for the main pair (the main bottom band which connects to the top smaller band) and a 14mm second bottom band. Should load very easily. For pretension/preload I'd say go for 140-150%.
      Any spearshop that knows how to set up rollers would know how to set up this. And they are very easy to understand intuitively.
      EDIT: Whatever gun you get, get bands with a small internal hole.

      Also, there are a lot of shit guns out there. Some from "great names". If you ever spent time in a pool with them and you see them spray shots all over and have little penetration you will soon learn the value of distrusting old brands. And nah, don't say it's about locking your elbow or wrist. There are simply guns out there that comes badly tuned from the factories and sometimes with triggers so bad you can't shoot them consistently. In those cases, I am sure a better gun makes a difference.
      So, if you want to treat yourself to a gun that shoots provenly well it can never harm.
