Technique is the critical thing for no-fins freediving.
Haven't done it in a while but my PB with fins dynamic is about 144m. When I tried doing some no-fins ones for the first time could usually make about 75. With a bit more practise I had a PB of about 85m.
I was doing this with very poor style, as in using straight arms. Got some swimmers to teach me the correct arm stroke, and I got some tips by watching David, Topi & Jasemin. Anyway practised for a while and it really made a difference. I can now normally do about 100m with a proper warmup. My speed is a lot better also, I do 50m dynamic in about 40-45 seconds.
150m is amazing, I'd love to see the style that Stig uses. Also curious to see how Herb did his 137m one this year. I'm not sure if that's official, if not his other one was 132m or something I think ?
hi Wal
What was it that you were doing wrong with your arms cos going from 85mpb to 100m is quite a bit, just curious to know how this made such a difference.
cheers
