The competition has started ok today. Small problem is that they have very little time to put the official depth watch on the athletes.

hi everyone. i am sorry to say but yesterdays the doctors pulled the plug for the swedish freediver after beeing several days in coma. we had a silent moment for him yesterday down here in egypt. he broke the one and only important rule - never train alone. it is very sad and it shows the importance of always training with another freediver.
here is a new and nice thing to chat about: i just came back from the dynamicspool and if anyone thought it was 21degrees they where wrong. we checked it with a d3 and a d9 and they both showed 16 degrees. 16!!!! It is shallow the last meter on each end so it is kind of a strange pool.
today the competition is running and i havent seen any delays yet, allthough i am on land... going down now to find a sunbed close to where the boats are coming in.
i check back to you later with the latest rumours, performances and gossip!

Thanx emil for the updates, sorry for the loss of the freediver, these things shouldent be happening.
Anyway it sounds like it will be intressting to say the least about the pool event. Hope all dives to day will go safe and score alot of points.
I'm looking forward to your next gossip report, tell us more about Herbert and his 9+ STA is it just a myth or will he bring some WR to the competition ?
Emil do you have any more news about the Finnish team ??
Hope to hear from you later
Herbet did a 9:03 or something like that and it is no myth. My friend William Winram told me on the phone yesterday that he was there when it happened. He is apparently in very good shape and by the sound of things even the 111m is possible.
Cheers Stavros...
PS. I will probably have some more info on performances when the competition finishes and the Greek team cpt gets out of the water.

If everything works out, Czech will win. What do you think? Pedersen's team will surely be strong in the pool so that's kinda scary but 150+ dynamics of Vala and Zlatuska with Stepanek's 200+ and 7:00 statics for all of them seems to be unbeatable. Go CZECH
I think we are going to see many more BO's and red cards. This is a competition and people have nerves, no matter how well they do in training.
Stavros said:
Nice to hear that, and was not implying that Herberts 9+ was a myth, just wanted to know if more people could validate it. Thanx Stavros and to Will.
I hope that the Czesh team and danes will give Herbert a good run for the win. I would give a lot to be there now to see it all take place.
Does anyone have some pic's of the 16 degrees 33.33m pool ??
Thanx again to all of you down there, that let us at home know how things turns out.
Cheers Daniel
