What are divers saying about SPEARGEARTM?

Marty Kolar, NASDS Advanced-Bullhead City, AZ:
"I have made many dives and hunts with your speargun holster since my purchase. It is as new today as it was on day one. In all that time, I have never had to search for a strap to put the gun back in place or to unbuckle. In swimming through surface kelp mass(as is sometimes required diving the Channel Islands of CA.), the kelp doesn't wrap around the gun or impede your advance. Freeing your hands make a big difference in such times. The best part is not having to carry the gun unless and until some fish must be taken. After reading the comment about bent shafts and such from Florida, I am thinking about moving. (Smile) Thanks for a superb product that doesn't break."
Rodale's Scuba Diving Magazine:
Field editor John Francis of RSD (Rodale's Scuba Diving Magazine): Simple and unobtrusive - "The best thing about this holster is that, unlike homemade contraptions using PVC pipe and the like, this one effectively disappears when not in use." Rating: ***
Valerie Daubert, Dive Master and Skin Diver Instructor at Bill Jackson's Inc. -St. Petersburg, FL:
"Being a certified Dive Master and Skin Diver Instructor at Bill Jackson's, Inc., I'm frequently asked to try many products, and SPEARGEAR is one of the best products I've used. SPEARGEAR is an excellent hands free way for me to carry my 49" RIFFE Speargun while I'm shooting pictures instead of fish; or divermastering on a charter boat leading underwater tours; or while I'm in the Florida Middle-Grounds with my friends shooting my larger 55" RIFFE. I always feel confident knowing I have my SPEARGEAR speargun holster with my extra speargun. Thanks again for a great product."
Mike Wade, Stickmen (freediving) Spearfishing Team - Mobile, AL:
"I find it useful when the need arises to carry and extra speargun. I pack and extra gun in the SPEARGEAR speargun holster when hunting with a pole gun. It has become essential gear, especially when beach diving. I have found it to be both easy to use and safe."
Leroy McDade, Instructor - PADI; NASDS - Athens, GA:
"I have used SPEARGEARon several hunting trips and have found it easy to harness and unharness when wanting to use the gun. I like the idea of diving hands free to look for lobster, etc., yet having my gun close at hand when I see a nice big fish to go for."
Danny Facciola, Instructor-PADI; OWSI-Olympus Dive Center, Morehead City, NC:
"Unfortunately in North Carolina we sometimes are forced to choose between carrying a crowbar and necessary tools to dig for treasure in the 'Graveyard of The Atlantic' or a speargun to go after the numerous grouper and snapper surrounding the wrecks. Finally a holster has come along so we don't have to choose. SPEARGEAR is a necessity off Morehead City. Once you've found that porthole, you can quickly unhook your gun and go after the big fish that was guarding it!"
Jamie Joanos, (SPUC) ST. Petersburg Underwater Club - ST. Petersburg, FL:
"I wanted to tell you what an awesome product your company has developed. On many of my Florida Middle-Grounds and Elbow spearfishing trips with my friends, it's not uncommon to have a primary shaft bent or destroyed by large fish. We use to carry an extra spearshaft mounted on our primary spearguns, but since we're using RIFFE Spearguns, which pride themselves on being precisely balanced with a single shaft, we never liked the idea of throwing off that balance with an extra shaft mounted on the side of the gun. Your product has served us very well. Now we not only have and extra spearshaft, but also an extra gun that stays completely out of the way unless needed. Your product also works very well for photography and lobster trips, just in case that 'big fish' shows up unexpected. Thanks again for designing an excellent piece of equipment that is both effective and affordable."
