AIDA DEPTH WC 2009 in the Bahamas.

[efattah]

Interesting announcements for the finals!

I must Alexey's 111m announcement is puzzling after his samba on 102m and BO on 83m...!

 

[ptoot]

Is there any footage available on Herbert's SP?

 

[wdaf]

Herbert lost his scuba certificate or what?
if i remember right he still had it CNF.
is there no instructor there that can for the sake of safety certify him?

Another excellent Sara Campbell report live from the Bahamas CNF Finals Men And Women – By Sara Campbell | Shark Freediving

Also a lot more info about Herbert surface protocol went wrong in that article. So go and read!

[Jorg]

no problem here... tried it in internet explorer 9 beta, 8, 7 and 6, firefox different versions and my favorite chrome.

Still problems?

 

[Aber]

No problem here either. Great report, Sara, and good luck to you all today!

Will we see you challenging Ernest in Unashamed soon, Sebastian? Then you can at least beat him in one discipline.

 

[azapa]

if you are tuned in and wondering about the new results, well, so am I. no calls yet. i suspect we will all know when things are done.

maybe its just as well as I am looking out onto a beautiful blue, but cold, Pacific Ocean, and i hear from the locals that the viz is great. Instead of reporting on dives I might actually go and try a few myself!

 

[azapa]

hang on a moment (squeeks back into house, wetsuit half on all lubed up):

olga - yellow card - turned early at 58
misuzu - white
klara - yellow, turned at 68
jarmila - white - nr
sara - white
natalia - white

right about now Sebastian is offering around a platter of matured cheeses, nuts and grapes, accompanied by a slightly chilled Pinot Noir. Its not easy serving wine on a slippy platform, so lets wish him luck. In the mean while, the official intermission view from my terrace:

 

[Stuart]

Next installment probably by a tired Will from Hamilton's GOOD LUCK to all

Marseille... sitting on sea side,waiting for updates.

A new Scandinavian Record for Johan Dalström. 101m and a white card. Very well deserved after all his incidents in trying to reach the magic mark.

Carlos looking strong after a dive to 110m. Maybe this dive will get him a medal. That's very promising. I really hope we get more divers competing with Nitsch and Stepanek for the CW World Record in the future. It will be good for the sport to have more Nations racing for the World Record and competing for the medals in the Worlds.

Thanks a lot to Simon for reporting.

Ed: Carlos' dive will of course get him a medal. The question is what kind.

 

[glennv]

Woooooow. Great for Carlos !!!!!
So that is at least a bronze (shared) medal ?

 

[GreG.]

i thing at least bronze as you said... also maybe no bronze medalist if one of the last 2 fails...
it is a little bit anoing to have incomplete results...

So looks like Herb wins this one... congrats to Herminator
