It's no secret. Sebastien posted this after the heats:
"During the finals we will create a live link:
Me-walkie talkie - Brittany - phone - Simon - internet - you.

I will try to include details aswell as results."

Looks like there is something wrong during info transit... Is the competition delayed ? William OT is 12:02... it is 12:47, what is Brittany doing ?

Oh - Just heard, Will T -90m, NEW WR and Gold medal Will W, -86, Silver Guillaume -78m Bronze


AWESOME GUYS

One down one to go ;-)

And Herbert?

 

[GreG.]

What about Herbert ? Did he turn ? :-/

 

[Ulf]

What happened to Herbert then?

 

[_Karol_]

Congratulations to you all!! Two new WR, great !

What about Herbert ?

 

[bubbleless]

Aparrantly Herbert got to 89m, was DQ'd for SP

 

[Ulf]

but not a BO?

 

[diver87]

Wow for me Herbert whould be the winner if he had done it. Just one CNF dive in Training and then a new WR rofl
Crazy guy

 

[laminar]

Wow! Awesome! Way to go William Winram and Will T!

 

[Kars]

Congratulations to all, great show, great effort, brilliant!

I'm especially happy for William Winram, who had struggled many times, and now seems to have overcome his challenge.

On the unashamed 50m WR, great job to! It appears that he did not even use a noseclip! I'm looking forward to more records in this exiting and very pure and visually appealing discipline!
Now the waiting is for a nice women to set a record in this elevating new discipline.

Wow so many new records for the final with the ladies, what a contrast with the qualification heats! Great dives for all the ladies, it's nice to see the gab is closing and more and more participate in the quest for a meddle and the WR.

Now the grand finale, very exiting, I hope to see some post interviews like the French have on their sites, maybe complemented with some surface and UW video.

Thanks for the updates!

Congratulations to all (including Herbert for a great dive)! Can somone post information about the others in the men final? So far we only know the first 3 and that Herbert was DQ, but there are still 3 others. All white cards, or not?

Just got back from and hour of 50 meter apnea laps at the pool - have eaten and avocado sandwich and am drinking water. 90 meters! Congrats Will! Fantastic dives all the way round. Reporting is stellar too.
Having a bit of coffee now. Birds are eating outside my window. There's snow.
More as it becomes available.
