  • In this video I take you through the steps I took in order to make this Carbon Inverted Roller Speargun. i had a lot of fun building this gun and im very excited to put it to the test in the next few months when the Pollock return.
    This speargun is an ABSOLUTE Canon I will need to find some very large fish in order to give it a real test!
    I hope you enjoyed this video if you did can you please hit the like button and share.
    cheers

    Looks slick mate! Try wetting the knife blade before cutting the rubber - it will plough through with ease!

      Cheers D Mann I will try that in the future 👍 that's the same gun that I used for the competition with the single 16mm band so time simple is best 😂

    Hi . I have similar gun made by an greek manufacturer ( MVD Zeso Predator 82 )with barrel lenght of 82 cm. I found 3 pair of rubbers too much for my gun (actually not for the gun itself but for the 6.5 mm spear rigged on my gun ), so i removed one pair of rubbers and left two pairs of 16 mm and it shoots much, much more acurately. Other thing that i would recomend is to shorten the shooting line ,so when you hook up your primary pair of rubbers at the anchors , they should already have some pretension. I didi it simultaneously with removing one pair of rubbers and the difference is very noticeable.
    You can play with different setups, the gun is very versatile and removing rubbers, shortening shooting line etc. can be done very easily.

      I would agree with you 2 sets of bands is definitely enough especially for a 6.5mm spear. Still plenty of power!
      I have just got a signalsub nemesis HT 92cm inverted roller. Looking forward to seeing how it performs

  • @yanassi
    @yanassi 7 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    I’m not a spearo but i’m curious, since an inverted roller is more powerful than a regular speargun, wouldn’t it make a shorter gun (75-90) much better, or would accuracy suffer?

    • @skyespearfishing
      @skyespearfishing  7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Good question I guess most inverted gun are similar lengths to regular spearguns just they fire like a laser very fast and do well at range (like shooting using a double wrap)

    Nice job! Just finished my first teak inverted roller and using pulleys instead of shackles for that job. BUT, there is some advantage to using shackles as they won't bind up at the anchor point as quickly as a pulley. Please let me know how the Dyneema is holding running through the shackles. Any indication of fraying due to the friction? Thanks!

    • @skyespearfishing
      @skyespearfishing  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I haven't had a huge amount of use out of the gun so far if I'm being honest but seen no signs of fraying so far. 👍🤙 just in the process of making 2 more spearguns out if mahogany I have to say wood is my favourite material to use for building guns.

    • @skyespearfishing
      @skyespearfishing  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Vital-parts.uk I like being able to relax the primary bands at the end of each session as it can't do them good being part strech all the time.

  • @dustsnow666
    @dustsnow666 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    amazeballs!, So? did you get the chance to use it?. feedback?. Im in the process of building something similar for the Med, but having second thoughts on barrel length. how long is this gun?

    • @skyespearfishing
      @skyespearfishing  ปีที่แล้ว

      Its a 90cm barrel
      Yeah I shot a few fish with it then ended up changing it to a 70cm barrel instead of a 90cm.
      As I needed a shorter speargun for a competition in Finland.
      My opinion for gun length is don't make it longer than you need.
      As you can always use a double wrap to gain range (which you would want to do for an inverted roller as they are really powerful!)

    • @skyespearfishing
      @skyespearfishing  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I chose to use 18mm bands for the pre tension bands. On the advice of a friend in order to get the spear moving fast. Hope that makes sense? 👍

    • @vodice35
      @vodice35 ปีที่แล้ว

      People mostly use thicker rubber on pre tension rubber because it is easyer to load rubber that you pulling thru pullyes(archimed pully) and on the same time you get much more power on thicker band than tinner one.
