Hi amigos and amigas, I just got back from a 10 day surface supply dive job at 5 sites at a pulp mill in Northern Alberta....I had no access to the net, and no time anyway, as it was all 12 hour days. The complete opposite of freediving.... 5 man crew,Viking rubber suit, zero vis, AGA mask with comms, 50 lbs weight, no fins, confined space, cutting torches and dredges, toxic biohazard "water". Actually, one of the sites had 1 foot of vis at the top 5 feet....the "water" was red. Enjoyed it all, though!
I missed looking at Deeper Blue and all the good info here. I didn't find out about Eric's record result until 3 days later, when my wife told me. Not that any of us had any doubt of a record, given his 88 metre training dives. Congrats Eric.
Now I have to cram to train for the Western Canadian Regionals on Sept 8-9. Any help with Dynamic training would be much appreciated, as I feel that I am weak in this area (any tips, Mr. Fattah?).
Good to be home, and I hope everyone is doing well and getting some quality time in the water.
Cheers,
Erik Young
