Question Neck Weight and nose clip

Hi,

Can someone tell me where I can get a neck weight for dynamic apnea. I'm also after a big nose clip...... Anywhere on-line would be good, preferably in the UK or Europe.

Thanks!

Sarah

Re: Neck Weight and nose clip

Hi Sarah, welcome to the forums. You can make a neck weight quite easily by yourself. Search the forums for threads on that.

For the nose clip, you can get either a Paradisia or a nose clip from FIT. They both do the same thing.

Which part of Thailand are you at right now?

I asked the same question a while ago and made one using a bike innertube and lead shot. There is a picture of how to do one on the threads.

Checkout the British Freediviing Association (BFA) web site for details on pool competions, probably wont be any info yet as its a bit early.

I want to compete next year too in dynamic so i might meet you one day?

Take care
Chris Holmes

Re: Neck Weight and nose clip

I posted how to make a neckweight with pictures of the " how to" process. It's in spanish, but I think you can follow the instructions easily. I'm using a speedo competition nose clip, and works fine for DNF

Oh Koh Tao. That's where Apnea Total is.

I live in Singapore, so that's very close to where you are. Maybe when you come back to this side of the world, we could meet in Thailand for some diving.
