Didn,t know this thread was in existence, thanks lads. This could be put down to a bad weekend if everyone at the dip were not so friendly and supportive. I had a great weekend despite the bad dive on sunday. I was struggling to equalize at the surface due to snots despite the nasl rinse and salts I had brought with me. I went back into town on sat before my dive and got a snot buster inhaler type thing that to be fair definatly worked but i couldn,t equalise past 25m at all and was struggling to hit that. I actually felt better on Sunday until I started the warm ups and struggled to equalise again resorting to turning around and continuing to drop another few metres before begining the ascent. I thought I might have problems as I hadn,t been deeper than 15 metres in a long while due to the weather here of recent weeks. I got a red card before I ever started the dive as i dipped/submerged my airways during my breath up. Like I said this could have put a downer on my weekend but the saltfree crew and angels don't let that happen and I had a great time over the whole weekend. the dives only account for such a small part of this event even if they are the main focus. It was great to see Brian there too who put in some cracking peformances on free immersion, constant weight and cw no fins. Brians only at it a short while so I think we will be seeing a lot more of him in the future. Thanks again to the angels for keeping a close eye on all and the Sam and all the saltfree crew for the whole event.

well done Ireland! Good on you Fergus enjoying the time. Everyone I seem to meet re-freediving makes it so much fun that results are secondary. To loosen those stuck tubes try letting the hot shower jet down on the area for 10 mins, sniffing the hot water in and through. It stings a little. It seems to loosen me up better than most meds though.
cheers
