This weekend marks the start of the Wellington Winter Champs in New Zealand.
There will be four days of competition in the pool and Grant is coming over to judge so it will be world record and world ranking status. The first three sessions will be in a 25m pool, and the fourth in a 50m pool. We don't have a lot of competitors but are expecting some high quality performances from them with 5 people attempting national or world records: Dave Mullins, NZ Chris Marshall, NZ Gavin Gray, NZ Phil Clayton, Britain Walter Steyn, Australia Kathryn McPhee, NZ Ruth Griffin, Britain Maria Hovden, Norway

Good luck to all the athletes, but especially Maria (the second norwegian girl in freediving history...). Go Norway!

Results from today and the draw for tomorrow are now up at WWC2008 | Lazy Seals Freediving Club
Fantastic dives today. 1 World record: Kathryn McPhee 151m DNF 2 national records: Walter Steyn 165m DNF Phil Clayton 132m DNF Plus well done to Maria who did a 4:38 static at her first competition and Ruth who very narrowly missed a new UK record with her 125m dynamic in miniscule fins (penalty in pulling up on the wall). We're hoping for some more great results tomorrow.

Big congratulations to Kathryn! Wonderful diving. Get the nerves off your back, you've done great and proven to us all you're world record holder. I wish you all the best for the rest of the competition and that you'll knock yourself out on the party afterwards
Congratulations also to Dave, Maria and all the others. I really wish I could be there. Have fun! Cheers, Elisabeth
