    Hey Ryan, I'm from Queensland Australia and I love to watch your videos. I'm just a beginner but I go spearfishing whenever I can and try my best to implement some of your hunting skills. Keep it up.

  • @RCT3crazed44
    @RCT3crazed44 Год назад +1

    Hey Ryan, have a question for ya.
    This is one of the only times where you aren't wearing a black wetsuit in your videos.
    Noticed a lot of wetsuits geared towards spearfishing are ocean camouflage or even "fish patterns" like Venture wetsuits.
    With all constraints the same (diver's ability, etc.) do you think the color of your wetsuit makes a difference - however slight or significant?

    • @RyanMyersExpeditions

      Makes zero difference. Just wanted to find a 1.5 mm for tournament day and this was the only color I could find.

    • @Kumukarl
      @Kumukarl Год назад

      I bet it was on his mind and that’s why one of the first things he said while paddling back to weigh ins was ” nobody died”. It also looked like he and Sam paddled in together and we’re close. But it’s safe to assume they weren’t following the one up one down too closely.

    It's awesome that so many invasive's were taken out! One thing I was surprised to see was that people appeared to be diving solo? Are they really encouraging that at the highest level of competition, or is that a misconception?

    Rayn you are a great competitor and spearfishing champion. But please give back to the sport. You did not show the other competitors getting their trophies or the scores. I competed in the Kona national in the 80s against Terry Mosss who gave you your trophy, I finished 6th. I dove head to head against him for hours until I moved to the shallows and he beat me. Look up John Ernest a great diver that everyone hated. Don't be one that guy I know you do not answer comments on your videos. START. Please give back to the sport.

    • @cory_hugs7850
      @cory_hugs7850 Год назад +2

      Something about a man telling another man what he needs to do piss’s me off, he’s giving back by furthering the sport, getting youth excited wanting to be a champion one day, everybody has social media if you put in the work you’ll make a name for yourself. Bro is doing the sport nothing but good 🤙🏼

    Shooting such small fish...could you not have ditched the reel and just freeshafted? Or just use a sling or pole spear? Seams like it would have saved a ton of time an energy reloading the gun.

    I have to say I don’t like this format. Competitive diving that doesn’t promote a buddy system is very dangerous. Your quote of “nobody died that we’ve heard of” should be redundant and unnecessary

    • @wadiabenslimane5926

      well said. We competed in these Nationals too and we were shocked that we were the only ones enforcing the buddy system.
