Yes, its probably because people like Sam have taken on the reigns, there is so much more happening. Crumbs, we even go on freediving holidays with our mates now. When Howard was on the scene, his efforts were virtually the only efforts and so his Cyprus comps were well attended and the only place to be. It was as if they were the only safe way to try our best. Now, we can go anywhere, anytime, Nice, Dahab, La Paz or dive locally with any number of set ups in our own Countries, and be safe, and thats what we do. So, having made a few holidays each year, we often cannot fit in the competitions.

Oh Sam! I did a 15 metre dive last week at the lily pad and had to hang onto the rope for ages to recover. Maybe the doc was right!
