What kind of gear set up do you use for spearfishing? Has anyone got any creative ideas? There are a few guys around here that have gone to a back plate and wing set up - not really a DIR, but more of a stripped down version to be more stream lined.
 
On Scuba: Zeagle Stiletto BC, Flathead XP regulator, Octo-Z, Hoseless computer & compass on recoilers, HP Steel nitrox tanks, Cressi 2000 long fullfoot fins, Black Seavision Rx silicone mask, fairly low volume. No snorkel. Deep: 30 cu ft deco bottle. 120 H-valve tank, second Flathead XP.

Freediving: C4 Falcon fins, rubber Marsailles style weightbelt, same Rx mask as scuba. Cressi snorkel.
