I've got one about Lanyards. I was just reading over the AIDA rules on it.
I don't have one but I was looking at making one. Not sure how it will actually turn out. Any advice on this? Thanks, Morg

Yep... buy one. Far far easier, Sam will have some for sale.
They get heavily scrutinised at some comps and sometimes judges with big arms try and rip them apart. In any case it's not just a lanyard to pull up a 70-90kg person, it's the 70-90kg plus all the water resistance plus it's going to get a hell of a jolt when the counterbalance catches up to the lanyard. Cheers, Ben

MEDICALS - MUST be signed by a doctor to say you are fit to dive in the past 12 months - there is no self certification for competitions
Sorry - its AIDA Rules Sam

Just a reminder that according to AIDA Rules you need to bring with you:
Passport Medical - signed by a doctor Lanyard Feargus - did you join the BFA yet? These will be checked at the briefing Thanks Sam

Two questions Sam:
1) Will the floods affect the comp? 2) At the briefing can we all have access to a no-fins tag with the band around it so we know what to do with it once we grab it from the bottom? Cheers, Ben

1) yes, you all have to dive 5m deeper (true answer - not as far as I know, I've asked Darren but not heard back yet)
2) yes, its just a wrist sized loop of bungee but you can try it
