Went on a little spontaneous splurge this past week and decided to treat myself to some new toys.

On Tuesday I ordered my replacement shaft that I lost at SWS.

On Wednesday I went to Neptonics Systems in Santa Cruz and picked up a Rob Allen 70cm open muzzle speargun.

On Friday I drove to John Banks home in Stockton and picked up a Banks Board.

Then on Saturday I told my wife about the purchases. She just looked at me and shook her head since I had just bought a new AB Biller speargun a couple of weeks ago.

I’ll make it up to her with some fresh fish really soon.  :smt003

Right on, Antonio. Sometimes it's good to be a little selfish.

I just got a nice tax return that's sitting on top of last year's untouched tax return and I've been itchin' to get out and spend some money....only I can't think of anything that I want!

Maybe a second gen P15 with a rudder...

Yup. That money is already in its own bank account!

If I did there would be a lotto hookup with boards for everyone!

Andy,
You should give one a try. They have excellent straps to carry on your back. Perfect for loooooong hikes  :smt044 :smt044 :smt044

Nice limits. Just a heads up Antonio, some forums (and the dfg?) don't like photos of more than one limit if there aren't two people in the photo. Something about how it could be conceived as over-limit and illegal.

Thanks Mitch. Definitely two limits on two separate days. I have about a dozen witnesses.......although most of them were drinking  :smt003

Uh, also there's a max possession of one daily limit (3) so you better have "gifted" three of those to someone else :smt002
