Re: new national records set in dahab

I just took a look at tom sietas website, and it's written that he is 193cm tall!
Now come on top that! where are the 2m freedivers

Christophe (somewhere in the mid range with 182cm)

Re: new national records set in dahab

I am 196 m. If I put on my high heels I am two meters

p.s. If you didn't know, the Dutch are one of the tallest people in the world. It's because we have no mountains , so if we want the nice view we need to get taller ;-)

Re: new national records set in dahab

Great dives. Sara you are a good cm. taller than the girl I married. What can I say. Good things come in small packages. It's the size of the heart that counts.

Don't know exactly, but from what I remember from the PFI clinic, he is about my height - 170cm.

Re: new national records set in dahab

Well done all three of you, Dave, Sara and Patrick. Fantastic trifecta!

Dave we sure missed you in Wellington. Everyone was on a high having learnt of your great effort to 95 metres.

BEWARE: MAF will be waiting for you at the airport to remove that CITES (coral) from your head when you hit the bottom in training.

Looking forward to catching up once you're back - I hear the terakihi are plentiful right now.

Re: new national records set in dahab

Hey Aniko

So nice to hear from you, hope you had a good flight home.

Well, the record attempts in Dahab are officially over and Dave and I had a successful final day in the Blue Hole.

I did 65m, which I'm very pleased with. And I'll let Dave blow his own trumpet....

Thanks to everyone for their really awesome notes of congrats and hope to dive with many of you one day. Double Dip...? I'll be there!

So you should be pleased as it is fantastic. Such quick progression to such depths, taking British freediving to new levels.
