How to shoot a SMB - or why we shoot the SMB the way we do.

[Music] hi I'm sorry no faith explorers we are still in the Philippines beautiful weather on great time here and today I would like to talk to you about why we shoot the SMB the way we shoot it and at the same time introduce you to the new AI z spool so we get a lot of questions from people that solve videos where I was shooting an SMB and they were asking me why do you do it the way we do it specifically was which hand you're doing what and so on so I would like to explain that a little bit regular SMB about one meter three feet from the spool I have all of this pre connected one specific thing is that I have a bolt snip in this that is fixed to the SMB so I'm not using the double ender from the spool to also hold the SMB so that gives me a little bit more freedom attaching it and I don't have that stress on the on the double ender because a lot of people complain that this thing opens up in the pocket and then they've line everywhere so it's not going to happen like that so when I want to shoot the SMB the very first thing I do is obviously I open it and I'll open it completely so the second thing is I remove the double ender and clip it to my honours next thing is there should be no line in the water because there you can get entangled it can catch stuff so you make sure this is all reeled in and now your right hand takes the inlet firm grip and your thumb and index finger take the spool so why do I use the right hand shooting the SMB is a very short action but I want to have my left hand free to control my buoyancy just in case because the moment I start inflating my buoyancy theoretically changes so of course I will tilt down a little bit swim down a little bit against the the Edit point see but in case something happens or if it is a bigger lift leg I have a chance to deflate right my left hand is free that's the reason I have it in my right hand so now I start inflating it and the moment it is full and my left hand obviously is holding my regulator the moment it is full my left hand takes the spool breathes it off to a point where I can see this not basically to avoid something like this right otherwise the whole thing's going off and then I let go the FMB so now my right hand is free again because now I have the time when the thing goes to the surface but now I'm ready again to donate and I don't have to switch and risk dropping it that is the prime reason why we do it the way we do it we now check it out on the water you will see how that works arm was the thing really going up and not falling to the floor [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] I hope is clarified a few things I hope you like it tested if you have questions comment please do so otherwise if you like it please subscribe to our Channel check us out on Facebook and I'll see you next time bye you
