Hi all,

I want to say Hello to all. I live in Germany and I do scubadiving since 12 years. Since a coupe of month I'm interested in freediving too. It's a pity that I live far away from the sea and the lakes in the neighbourhood are cold and have only a visibility of 1 - 2 m. So I can only do my exercises in a pool. :-(

I work with apnoe tables too and my dry PB is now a little more than 4 min - I started with 1 min 30.

In some weeks I will spend my holidays in SE-Asia and I'm looking forward to see for what my excercises where been.

Cheers
 
Hi rbsub, welcome aboard!

I am also stuck in the pool for now. I also do dry tables sometimes.

Do you also think that pool training is sometimes boring?

I think about a waterproof mp3-player. Anybody with experience with such a thing?
 
rbsub 4minutes is impresive we going to se asia dont forget to have sun screen seems not available in philippines nor do remember seeing in thailland or malaysa are you staying at a german resort or swiss are you going to use a travel guide book i like lonely planet i dont know if they publish in deutch you germans are impresive in the qualitity of gear it always seems the best cigarlung
 
Cigarlung, thanks for the advices. I will definitly not spend my holidays in a German Resort. I usually travel around with my backpack and my Lonely Planet (for sure ).

BTW: Since 2 or 3 month "Lonely Planet" is now published in German, too.
 
dear rbsub good to note you will be backpacking i when traveling like a break from my fellow country men thought it was funny and also a relief to be thought to be swiss or german world has good reason not to be to happy with us in the states i am envious of the you germans travel ican never get the time off of damn work most american employers unless you are a school teacher think one week is plenty of time off hope to work alot for ten or fifteen more years then live in the philippines and volunteer my time at a university lab if good lord allows.
