Re: Cobia Adventure
Tony,
For a superior slip tip that will laugh at that kind of abuse contact Mori at (310) 628-8082 or Kitto at (661) 400-5223. They build the state of the art slip tips.

Re: Cobia Adventure
Wow. I am relatively new to spearfishing, and that video was absolutely awesome. Thanks for the video. Until recently (past 10 minutes) I didn't have any desire to pass the 120/130ft mark, but I am definately going to look into it now!!

Re: Cobia Adventure
Hey Freedro! I dive with Tony on occasion. I use a Riffe - Ice pick slip tip. Does your tip compare to the Riffe? You wouldn't happen to have any pictures would you? Thanx!

Re: Cobia Adventure
I saw Ray Odor hit one in the head that was around 65 pounds. We were 10 miles off St. Pete. Ray came back to the boat with a bent shaft and lost the fish. The skull was so hard that it bent the shaft and didn't penetrate.

Re: Cobia Adventure
Awsome video! You are going to have to make some cash and set us all up with video systems like that. Too cool!

Re: Cobia Adventure
I just saw this video for the first time today. I know, i know, welcome to last month inlet.
Very cool. The first thing I thought when you shot the cobe and it headed south, was "man you better get a grip on that gun!!!" Looks like he tangled himself on some structure and beat himself up before you gave him the dagger of mercy. |

Re: Cobia Adventure
Very cool video. What type of video equipment and housing are you using, and is it mounted on your helmet?

Re: Cobia Adventure
I hate watching videos like that. When I'm at work. Which seems like all the time. Thanks for letting us live vicariously down the stock of your gun.

Re: Cobia Adventure
Tony.
Eventhough I am a freediver and I know I will be never reach those kind of depths. Props to you and your friends. Those are some big cojones you guys have. Also what a great video very crafty to be able to shoot the gun and not miss anything with the camera. Great job. German Martinez |

Re: Cobia Adventure
Sweet video Tony. Those deep wrecks just seem so peaceful and alien in the videos. That technica/deep diving is definitely something I want to get into. Too bad about the cobia, 1 bent shaft and a broken slip tip and 1/2 on the fish. Not a bad dive. Solo diving that deep must be an experience all it's own...very freeing i bet.
