Dahab 'triple depth' competition in November

[jome]

Congratulations to Natalia and everyone else...

I guess this is as good a time as any to publish the mini-interview we did with her
http://www.freedivingfinland.net/nu...e=article&sid=194&mode=thread&order=0&thold=0

Be nice, none of the people involved speak english as their native tongue, and the whole thing was translated from finnish to english to russian to english, so it may be a little rough around the edges...

Congrat! Ryuzo. He made Japan National record for FI, -80m

Good job for Tomoko too. I know you are good coach :inlove

 

[turtle]

Yep, mark harris 61 m FI!
Also forgot Ute who set a german womens' FI record of 45 (i think, although dahab is already beginning to make me hazy)

-- Today, Constant weight! (From what i remember again) --

Ryuzo 82 m
Mark Harris 61 metres

Lots of very very good dives today and NO blackouts or sambas at all, so a sweet day of good dives out in the blue hole for all. Tomorrow is last day of the event :waterwork But i'm staying out in dahab anywy

I think Lambis is going to put up some of his photos of today, so keep an eye out for that.

10m on the UK national record - that's great - well done Mark!
what depths were people doing today? unassisted, right?

 

[turtle]

unassisted is tomorrow - constant weight dives were today.

Oh, forgot, ryuzo set another NR with his 82 dive today - came up looking completely fresh.

And Linda did Italian womens constant NR of 66m!!

---live transmission from dahab---

Wolle and luc are arguing about how you manage to BO at 50 metres. Lambis is swinging a weightbelt menacingly.

Wolle will put all the results so far up on his site tonight

Awesome job Ryuzo and congrats on the new NR. And what about Natalia....is there no limit to the number of records she can hold at one time? - amazing!!

[crazy girl]

Hey, Ryuzo & Tomoko! Goooooood job you guys!
Ryuzo made 3 National records, CWT -82m, CNF -50m, and FI -80m!
I'm glad to hear that!!! Yes, Brother Taka would think so...
Congrats!!!

 

[samdive]

Hey Fred, congrats to you too! lots of great performances going on. Wish I was there (but I will be in just over a month)

Cheers Sam! It's been absolutely fantastic - did 40m in FI & CW, then 31 today for CNF, all very happy, relaxed dives... Shame you weren't able to make it, you'd have had a blast for sure.

Last day of competition - CNF

Natalia M ... 55m new WR!
Linda - new italian NR 44m(i think)
Ryuzo - 50m NR
Also, Ute set a german women NR of 21m

Sebastien Naslund may have new swedish CNF NR of 56m (again, depending on fuzziness of my head), but awaiting decision on possible line violation.

...and, everyone had very good dives, no BOs or sambas, great atmosphere, bring on next year :wave !!
