I was not part of the instructors gang, but I can contribute some pictures and movies (well, the juiciest ones I cannot publish really... :rcard )
As far as I could tell, they were having a very good time, always whining like all freedivers but enjoying every minute of it. I saw quite significant participation from Russia, Czech, Switzerland, Japan, and other nationalities such as Turkey, Poland, Chile, Egypt, Ireland, Korea, and I am forgetting several others.
