Dahab buddy, 2nd - 16th Sept?

[Tigermoth]

Hi,

I'll be in Dahab from the 2nd- 16th Sept, and will hopefully do an AIDA*** course at some point in that time.

My brother who I usually dive with will be joining me from the 9th. If anyone's around who wants to do some constant weight at any time then that would be great.

I'm currently comfortable down to 20m, with a max of 25m so far.

Wish I could join you... desperate for some open water diving...

by the way, am I wrong or have we recently met?

 

[Tigermoth]

Hey Simos!

Yeah, we met a few weeks ago at Richmond (it's Ronan).

Shame you can't come, I was really lucky and got some dirt cheap staff travel so thought I might as well book it and then work out the details later. Even if I have to confine myself to snorkelling and the odd scuba dive until my brother's out it'll still be fun

 

[Simos]

Yes I thought it might be you Ronan i'm sure you'll meet others at Dahab - why don't you get in touch with Linda and Lotta (freedivedahab) when you get there? I think Sara C is still out there too. I'm sure they can hook you up with others and if you are interested you can take some lessons with them too...

 

[Tigermoth]

How did you know hahah!?

Yeah, that's basically my plan. I'm going to do the AIDA 3 star course with them when my brother's out but before that I'll go along and do a days training with them to convert my SSI cert to AIDA and I'll see if they know of anyone else out there who's up for some training. I might just do some general training with them as well, maybe see if they can help me with mouthfill or just technique in general.

I'm sure there will be others out there up for some training, it is Dahab afterall!

 

[Simos]

How did you know hahah!?

Well - your location matched, the numbers you mentioned matched and the fact that you have a brother that dives with you matched too. There are not THAT many freedivers around so easy to guess

Let me know how Dahab goes - I've never been out there and would love to visit at some point. I'm sure you'll learn lots... Anyway, hopefully will see you before you go out there anyway.

 

[Tigermoth]

Oh yeah, when you put it like that it kinda narrows it down! Excellent powers of deduction!

Dahab is wonderful, I'm sure you'd love it. It's really cheap for accommodation and food so it doesn't have to be too expensive. Also the water is warm enough that you can go pretty much all year round, even in Jan or Feb.

I'll let you know how my diving adventures go and hopefully see you around soon

Hi hi! I live in Dahab and did my AIDA ** in June (with freedivedahab). I'm comfortable down to 20m with a max to 29 (FIM). Right now I am in Germany but will be back in Dahab from the 3.9. on. In case you're interested I'm happy to join you for some dives
