Position yourself comfortably in the water, get a good grip on the handle of the gun with your left hand as you prepare to load.

With your right hand, reach for the right elastic, pushing with your left hand.

With a straight right arm, wedge the gun handle against your chest with your left hand.

Once the gun handle is pushed firmly against your chest, release it and use your left hand to grab the left elastic.

Use your chest to push and simultaneously pull the elastics with both arms towards the notch on the spear.

Click the cable into the spear notch and the gun is ready to fire.
