My best in near-ice conditions (0C air, 4C water) was 67m with two wetsuits and a heat pack, and I had air to spare. However, if I were to attempt an 'under-ice' dive, I would do it with no wetsuit, and I think I could reach basically my pb, since all my deep dives are now without wetsuits, and the temperature of the water has pretty much no effect (either way I just get in, and GO!)

Who did 111m under ice without fins? The most I heard was 57m by Wim Hof of Netherlands with a samba/BO (no wetsuit).
