Not sure why it hasn't been properly announced yet, but I have it on fairly good authority that this year's team world cup will once again be in Sharm, from 1-14 September

this is not an official announcement so don't blame me if it's wrong...

well, about a year earlier i had bought an omer cam wetsuit..i wore only a couple of times..a couple of my friends joked around that camo looks silly etc...so kinda put me off it :).
One of those guys is Egyptian freediving champ Ashod papazian (DB username: ashtheflash) so before the comp, ashod's elios started feeling a bit tight around his neck and he was complaining about it..so i told him why dont you try the omer camo..he kept on joking about the looks etc.. and so we reached an agreement, that we would swap wetsuits, my omer for his elios if they fit.. i tried the elios, fit me great, he tried the omer, and texted me (of course didnt have the nerve to call :)) that ïts the most f**n comfortable wetsuit he wore)...and so off to the comps it went with ashod :)...

the funny part s that during the comps, Jome was always posting updates here, so i was asking about ashod, i said you cant miss him, hes the bald egyptian with the camo wetsuit...3 minutes later i got a reply from jome.. "hes sitting right next to me":)
needless to say of course i made him repent for ever making fun of camo :)
