AIDA DEPTH WC 2009 in the Bahamas.

Thread Status: Hello , There was no answer in this thread for more than 60 days.
It can take a long time to get an up-to-date response or contact with relevant users.
Nice report, GlennV. And 50m cnf is a very respectable result, especially for a Dutch guy with hardly any place to do deep diving in his home country. Seem like your equalization issue is just a matter of more deep training.
 
Yep thats why I am thinking as well. Now just find a bag of money for all the trips to freedivespots around the world. (keep dreaming....)


p.s. It's about time for the next batch of results. The 2nd break should be over and the last batch of divers , the abyss guys, should be going by now.
 
uplink is up, here we go:

Jan, White
Shun, White
Will W., did not show
Per, sorry to say, yellow card, turned at 54m with sticky ears
Morgan, same story, turned at 83
Jure, White and a National Record
Patrick, nasty BO as it was quite bellow the surface, he is OK though
Niels-Jakob, White and a national record.

If all goes well we will have another report half way through the last block.

over and out.

I feel sorry about Per, too. Sticky ears just seem so very unnecessary, but little one can do about it. The next dive you can be fine. Very bad luck. Great with Niels-Jakob Hansen, though. Is that a Scandinavian record as well? Might not last long if Dahlström succeeds. Let's hope for a very white last heat.
 
Lets send some positive vibes over to Carlos. He deserves a nice comeback.
 
Reactions: trux
I heard rumors that Carlos was making 100+ with a mask during training. Yes, would be nice for a South American on the Podium, after all, the Blue Hole is pretty close geographically speaking.
 
Azapa, when you are online, why don't you tell us the next results? In the time of your posting, it had to be finished for Christian and Johan. Or don't you see what is happening from your place? Or are you not at all there, and someone relays the messages to you?
 
Gosh trux, your spoiling my fun here. I like to keep you all waiting a little bit. Or maybe I just sitting up on a rocky bluff overlooking the whole thing with a cooler full of beer, and and just too lazy to get off my butt and go down and ask for the results too often?

Ok, (shuffles the flip-flops on) back in a minute. If my beer warms up too much by the time im back up here you'll be owing me a new one...

back soon
 
Hey Glenn - I included a link to your review in mine. Congrats on your 50m!

I'm hungry to hit 60 meters now - with no packing and normal mask and monofin - after that we'll see . I wanted to do some CNF there - but my monofin felt so good with that suit I could not stop!
 
I am sure you will hit 60m very soon.
I was supprised that only me and Ken where doing CNF there. If you are training with the CNF guru , why not do CNF ? But probably mono is also nice. Have to get mine out off the mothballs and try a bit. Who knows , maybe I like it, but the dark side (cnf) keeps pulling at me :head
 
Herbert is underwater at the moment... I NEED RESULTS... said the addict...
 
He's a pretty good Mono guru too It was the suit - it was sheer hydrodynamic ecstasy. Plus Will kept giving me interesting stuff to work on.

YES - we wantses resultses - we wantses them..
