Hello fellow freedivers! I've been freediving since first learning to swim, and training in static apnea from the day I was given my first digital watch as a kid. This website has already proved a valuable resource to me for training tips and techniques over the past 2-3 years and I'm rapidly learning more from this forum.

'Dry' extreme sports had my full attention for a long time, but now my slightly arthritic bones prefer the smooth movements and freedom found in freediving. Neutral buoyancy is bliss!

Searching for a fellow apneist to train with has so far been unsuccessful, that's one of the reasons I'm here. Also, I don't drive, so most of the time it's practically impossible for me to get out and enjoy some real freediving - as well as being extremely dangerous! It would be great to hear from anyone in the area who needs a buddy to train and freedive with.
 
Hey, welcome to DB. Goggle SaltFree as they run out of Wales (Chepstow) not they far on a train?
 
Thanks. Wales is quite near me, and some parts are easy to get to by train / bus... I'll check them out now.

I dive at a site near Kirby Lonsdale that is very close to you in summer.

We are in Manchester so is only an hours drive. I'll send you my e-mail.

Safe diving

Thanks apneaboy, and jay. Will do. I know Hodge Close very well, used to regularly hitch there to climb that slippery slate!
