Apnea in fresh water

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.
Looking nice!
As a kid I snorkle a lot in France during the summer Hollidays.
Where in Belgium is this? I'm from the south part of The Netherlands, so I think it is worth a visit.
 
Hi "The Pupil"

"Where in Belgium is this? I'm from the south part of The Netherlands, so I think it is worth a visit."

Sure but to practice freediving in "stone carry" (steengroeve) you must have a licence by AIDA or Apnea Academy, or, SSI free diver or Lifras …of BEFOS in het Nederlands enz.



To see "La Gombe", follow these links ( in French):

If you read French, you'll find a lot of "Holliday report" (Red sea, Maldives, etc ) with pictures and videos there => http://www.passion-snorkeling.com/forum/voyage-f19.html

Hi dcvf,

My last freediving course got canceled since they didn'thave enough participants. Wanted to go to Tenerif in January. But couldn't get the days off.. Arrangein the end I Will have my paper.

But it amazes me how many fish are down there, and de Steur, I lovethat fish. And Close to Luik, so not that far away. What camera did you use for the shots?

Did you already follow a freediving course?
AIDA other, level?

"Wanted to go to Tenerif in January. But couldn't get the days off.. Arrange in the end I Will have my paper."
For what level?
Fine

"But it amazes me how many fish are down there, and de Steur, I love that fish. And Close to Luik, so not that far away."
It's a kind of Sturgeon => https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sterlet
There are concentrated at this place, not on other places in the stone carry, sometimes 1 or 2 big carp Koi or a pike (snoek)

"What camera did you use for the shots? "
Sony HDR-AS15 ( from my son) , as mentioned in the third link from my previous answer .
I'll try again…later with "Light"
Up to now (*) I filmed with => http://www.passion-snorkeling.com/forum/mon-ensemble-video-t3082.html
In april 2015 Maldives for the last time

I'm looking for another HDR-AS50 perhaps => http://www.sony.com/electronics/actioncam/hdr-as50
But always fixed on "self made wing" to stabilize…like on the third link from my previous answer.

Nope, not yet. At first I wanted to take a 2* AIDA course in NLD but was canceled. Then was looking for a 1 or 1+2 star SSI course in Tenerif or Dahab. Not sure what it will be, summer holiday Greece perhaps?

Still looks great :) I found out that a father of my friend also dives there with his club.

Nice quality and a mighty piece of engineering you made !! I have a budget action cam from China which doesn't disappoint me at all for 85 euro, although the buttons of the protective housing are quite hard to press.

Action camera's are fun but need to be be careful about colour saturation and the Fish-Eye (some people hate it)

Cheers, Luuk
