The 110 is perfect for this.

Have started a bit of diving out in the big kingfish/pelagic waters around white island etc so am currently looking at a blue water gun. Tossing up between a pathos 110 roller or a 130/140 Rob Allen tuna.

How do you like the roller? Been thinking I might move the missus to one, she is pretty strong but vertically challenged so uses a 90. It's a bit limited on range on the bigger offshore reefs here. Thinking a 100 roller would work

Yeah I like the length I have a rock basher in 100 when I don’t want to damage my RA Spears �� pathos is a good roller a friend of my spearfishs around around the world and that’a his go to but I let him try the RA and he is currently trying to buy one. I think they work out cheaper than the Pathos and they are more customizable plus 110 roller would outshoot a 130 and have equal power as a double banded gun. Only things with rollers is how to load either a pretension shark fin or a load assist which can be a pain because you can load it and then swim off and forget it. But she should be able to get it to her liking RA come with a load assist but you can make a longer one for smaller arms. What’s the prices over in NZ was having a look and they look pretty expensive? Or I’m looking in the wrong places?
