Slip-Tip: Detachable tip for spearfishing and bluewater hunting

The Slip-Tip is an advanced tool for spearfishing, designed with a front tip release mechanism. This technology allows the tip to detach from the shaft once it has penetrated the fish and to position itself crosswise inside the flesh.

This technical feature prevents the fish from levering against the shaft, reducing the risk of breakage or tear-out of the spearfishing gear during retrieval.

Technical features and applications

• Recommended for ocean bluewater hunting and fast, powerful pelagic species with soft flesh, such as Wahoo.
• Ensures greater holding power even when the fish is not fully penetrated, thanks to the crosswise positioning of the tip in the flesh.
• Reduces the chance of losing the fish by increasing the effectiveness of the spearhead in dynamic and demanding hunting situations.

The Slip-Tip is therefore an essential component for spearfishers targeting demanding pelagic species, ensuring efficiency and precision when retrieving the catch.

Slip-Tip: Release Tip for Spearfishing

The Slip-Tip is a specialized tool for spearfishing, designed to improve catch effectiveness thanks to the progressive tip release mechanism.

Its operating principle involves the controlled detachment of the front section of the tip upon impact, which positions itself crosswise once it has penetrated the fish. This design provides a more secure hold, reducing the risk of losing the catch during the subsequent retrieval phases.

Hunt Target Trigger Mechanisms for Freediving and Spearfishing Spearguns

The Hunt Target trigger mechanisms are made from AISI 316 stainless steel, ensuring mechanical strength and durability even in underwater environments. They integrate a line retention system (line release) with a side-mounted design, which acts on the side of the sear, keeping trigger pull weight consistent even under high line tension.

Technical and Construction Features

• Materials: Blackened AISI 316 Stainless Steel with anti-reflective treatment, levers with minimum 60 HRC hardness and polished surfaces to reduce roughness.
• Mechanism dimensions: 47 mm long mechanism housing, 16 mm thick, 18 mm high, optimized for compact installation in the speargun barrel.
• Line release: Positioned on the right, 22 mm long, 2.5 mm thick, reversible for right- or left-side mounting by simply unscrewing the pin.
• Trigger pull weight: Variable from 1.5 kg to 180 kg of shaft load, supports up to 5-6 bands with 16 mm diameter and 320% stretch.
• Safety test: Tensile strength up to 500 kg.
• Fixing pins: Welded and treated to 48 HRC, ensuring solid fastening and tamper-resistant safety.
• Noise-reduction system: Rubber inserts eliminate the typical trigger click, reducing detection by fish.
• Trigger: Semi-curved shape inspired by semi-automatic hunting shotguns, with a short and highly intuitive travel for excellent trigger feel and smooth release.

Available Versions

The Hunt Target mechanisms are available in four variants, each developed for specific spearfishing needs:

1. Target 2 Standard: Rear-set, compact mechanism with excellent release feel.
2. Target 2 Combat: Designed to support a high number of bands, with a lightened housing and slim side profile. The levers feature high surface hardness (minimum 60HRC).
3. Target 2 Match: Allows the trigger position to be adjusted within a 10 mm range (5 mm forward and 5 mm back) and rotated for customized ergonomics based on the position of the first phalanx of the index finger during the shooting motion.
4. Target 2 Match Combat: Combines the features of the Combat version with the Match trigger position adjustment.

Functional Details

• The very long levers reduce the force required on the trigger, increasing sensitivity and accuracy during the shot.
• The rear-set position of the mechanism allows an additional 4-5 cm of band propulsion stroke to be used, optimizing the energy transferred to the shaft.
• The dual spring, on the trigger and on the shaft sear, ensures secure and reliable engagement of the shaft.
• Blackened screws and countersunk seats provide a clean, understated look and reduce reflections that could disturb the spearfisher.

Tribal 80 and Tribal 100 Reel for Spearfishing

The Tribal 80 reel is a high-capacity horizontal model designed specifically for open-water spearfishing. It features a lightweight spool made from floating polymer, helping maintain optimal trim during the dive. The clutch knob, made from AISI 316 stainless steel, ensures strength and durability while controlling a precise, reliable click-stop drag system.

A distinctive feature of the Tribal 80 is its adaptability to different spearguns thanks to the special washers supplied, which allow the spacing of the mounting screws to be adjusted. This system, similar to the Modular version, ensures high compatibility with multiple spearfishing setups.

Slip-Tip: Release Tip for Freediving Spearfishing

The Slip-Tip is an advanced release-tip system used in freediving spearfishing. The mechanism allows the front section of the tip to detach after it has passed through the fish, helping the tip position itself crosswise inside the catch’s tissue.

This type of tip is designed to provide greater holding security and reduce the risk of losing the fish, ensuring better alignment and a more effective hold during spearfishing action.

Slip-Tip: Spear Tip for Freediving and Spearfishing

The Slip-Tip is an advanced Spear Tip designed specifically for freedive spearfishing and bluewater hunting. The tip release mechanism allows the front section to separate from the shaft and turn sideways inside the fish’s body after impact.

This technical innovation prevents the fish from using the shaft as leverage, reducing the risk of Spear Tip breakage or the fish tearing off, ensuring greater reliability during retrieval.

Applications and Technical Advantages

• Ideal for taking powerful, fast pelagic species with soft flesh, such as Wahoo.
• Significantly increases Spear Tip holding power even when the fish is not fully penetrated.
• The tip’s ability to turn sideways in the flesh improves the chances of success in spearfishing.

The Slip-Tip is therefore an essential component in freedive spearfishing equipment, thanks to its mechanical strength and its ability to minimize technical risks when retrieving large, powerful, fast-moving fish.

Flopper system — Hunt Technology innovation

The flopper on the Black-Out Plus is a true non-recessed flopper, with a thickness of 1.2 mm, designed to deliver the same penetration as a traditional recessed double flopper thanks to the AISI 316 penetration cone. The cone is machined from solid stock, permanently welded to the shaft, and creates a continuous fairing that eliminates the typical “step” found on non-recessed floppers, significantly improving penetration on fish with hard scales or large bones.

• Flopper thickness: 1.2 mm, perfectly smooth and free of rough spots to preserve the fish meat
• Special high-strength 2.5 mm TIG-welded pin with lattice welding between flopper and pin, eliminating the risk of hole ovalization even under extreme loads
• Flopper locking system in the open position, welded and free of protrusions so it does not limit penetration
• Beveled and polished flopper to ensure maximum respect for the fish meat
• Same protrusion as a standard recessed double flopper

Staggered double flopper configuration

In the staggered double flopper version, two single floppers are mounted very close to each other in a staggered position on the shaft body. This system ensures total holding power: it is extremely unlikely for a fish to break free from floppers of this type, which lock open on both sides.

Availability

• Available diameters: 7.0 — 7.5 — 8.0 — 8.5 — 8.75 — 9.0 — 9.5 — 10.0 mm
• Flopper configurations: Single Flopper / Staggered Double Flopper
