Re: Vertical Blue 2008

It's snowing in Vancouver today, and I leave tomorrow evening for Vertical Blue. Too much work to do much wet training, but yesterday I did a 5'33" FRC static, which using my personal conversion table could yield around 91m, but unfortunately I will need to borrow a monofin as my custom Leaderfins Flyer Pro was destroyed during shipment.

Lately I have been working on wet extensions to the mouthfill to extend my FRC equalizing over 80m. The big challenge is going to be the warm water, which I'm not used to.

Laminar and I will be introducing a new style of freediving at Vertical Blue -- Feet First no-fins diving. Just wait for the video!
