you very likely meant depth discipline, or constant no fins.
My guess is that we'll still have to wait a while (wont give a number of years!) to see it happepping because:
- in CNF there are no major equipment factors to play with and improve fast on existing limits, as we could see in CWT with the switch form bi to monofin, for instance.
- seems less interest in CNF, with less top performers aiming to challenge the existing limits, which see already quite unreachable for most! Apart from Martin and Will, i'm not aware of anybody doing regularely 70+.
- getting to 100m and back will likely take close to 4 minutes, if Will's record dive is the benchmark (82m in 3min9sec), an amazing feat that i wonder how many people can achieve...
Then again, Herbert might just want to have a go on the CNF record and the way he is diving now, it might take months not years!

I belive that the CNF record will continue to get closer to the CW record as more 'elite' divers participate; already we have witnessed a few significant achievements in the discipline.
100m seems possible; 1m/s = 3.3 min
Anyway, wanted to hear what the boffins had to say on this matter...
