Hi Sergei. Crystal clear explanations on how to handle the freediving buoy. Very good advices on the right knots, the placement order on the carabine, and so on that will make freediving sessions much easiers. Thank you!
Hi Sergey, the figure eight knot is the best of all the three knots you are presenting the clove hitch is known to be slipping too. That is the reason why boaters are always securing it with an additional knot tying their fender.
Hi Peter! There is no such knot as the "best not" 😎 In climbing some climbers love 8, some bowline. Everything has advantages and disadvantages. 8 more difficult to untie, when the rope is wet. But of course it is more "secure"👍😎
Try the munter hitch for the diving line. It's easy, dynamic and can replace a pulley system - add or deduct rope lenght/depth w/o changing knots bet clove hitch and 8 loop.
Munter hitch will work, for sure. But after start using pulley system once, there is no reason to do anything else. It's much more convenient for setting the depth, as well as bringing the rope back :)
Great video. My comment is that I would make the distance from the ball stop and anchor longer (longer than the distance of safety lanyard to prevent possible entanglement).
Thanks! It’s a nice video! If you have time, could you also introduce how and where to connect the red line if we’re not going to boat diving? For example, just a normal training nearby the coast? I saw my instructor connect it to the floating ball under the sea ever but I don’t know exactly how to do it.
Hi Sergei! thanks for all the great videos you make I really appreatiate it, I know it's a lot of work! As a climber that is starting to freedive I kind of cringe a couple of times on this one LOL! I'll trade you a session of freediving tips for a session of rope management and knots :) Just kidding I'll gladly share with you my knowledge for free, feel free to shoot me message anytime.
Haha, thx! I used to be an outdoor rock climber myself for years. Sadly, I don't have time anymore. Only indoor bouldering now. After the pulley device was introduced in freediving, there is not that much need for rope management and knots. The simple bowline is more than enough for 99,99% of situations.
Great useful video. What about the carabiner size? Which one do you prefer? Sometimes I'm using two of them. It helps me to adjust the depth. May be you can mention this technique as well?
Sergey hi my name is nikolaos. i wanted to ask you. i want to buy the fabric of this flot i dont want the tube inside .can u pls .tell me where i can buy the fabric ?

Thank you for the comment! In 2-3 weeks I am planning to make a part 2 on the same sobject, I missed a few things on the first video...
Best video covering this topic. Nice job!
Cheers buddy. Will do a second part, since I forgot to cover some things in this video😊

Sounds like a good idea for one of my next video😉
Yesssssss! And first ☝🏻
Yeah!!
I am grateful to you
thx my friend!
Nice video, setting up the buoy has always been sort of tricky for me. will share on our group page if that's ok :D
Glad that it helped. I missed a few details, so, will do a second part on this topic soon
@@KAIZENFREEDIVING awesome! will look forward to that!
@@DavePatricio quite busy at this moment, but as soon as a have time will do a vieo about it :-)

I just got a set up waiting to arrive it has a pulley system does the tying rope set up apply as well? Or adding a second connection?
Second connection :)
like #100 is from me :D great video

Look like I need to do a second video😉 if carabiner small, then yes, better two. But if big, one is enough. But thx for the comment!
@@KAIZENFREEDIVING And size of this big carabine??!
@@Stevens737 hard to say, will have a look at mines. But basically just biggest at the shop
Sergey hi my name is nikolaos. i wanted to ask you. i want to buy the fabric of this flot i dont want the tube inside .can u pls .tell me where i can buy the fabric ?
Hi Nikolas! They are from South Korea, google Double K, pretty sure they have a website :-)
Thanks...
You are welcome!
Hello Sergey, do you somehow attach one of the end of the rope inside the buoy or just let it loose?
hi! good question! yes, I always attach the end of the rope inside!
i think that last part is called daisy-chain
Yep, can be called this way!
Too much talking 🤣
Haha
