Hello Southern Freedivers!!! I live in Birmingham, Alabama and I am looking for more freedivers in the southeast area to dive and train with. Right now I am diving with Jason Welbourne and am interested in finding other freedivers. We had three people diving with us but one of them had to move back to Turkey- he sure will miss our quarry with all those beautiful blue spots for him to dive on the Turkish coast.
I felt working with more than two freedivers was better. One can dive- one can breathe up- one can meet the diver- you know the drill. I cannot do a whole lot of driving because of money but I can go as far as the Florida panhandle from time to time and I know some folks in Georgia were meeting up for a while. I am just wondering if there is anybody a little closer to home to dive with.
Check out our cheesy webpage or please reply.

When do you guys go to Bluewater Adventures to dive in Pilham. I use to go there to train with my friend Charlie Wheat who lived in Montgomery, he died while do some training couple years back. I haven't been there since. I've talked to Jason welbourne a few times online. I live in north georgia and spend most of my diving spearfishing but I want to come over and do some training with you guys sometime. It takes me about 3.5 hours to get to the quarry but I can make a day of training out of it on the weekend. Let me know when you guys go I can meet up with you, I want to really get back there to the quarry I had alot of fun there. So let me know!

Safe diving

It is good to hear from you. I talked to Jason after we got through diving the other day and was excited to hear that you may be coming out next saturday to dive. I heard about your friend and am sorry for your loss. I think that the more people we have the better. I do not have internet at home right now but you can get in touch with me at 205-240-3403 anytime about diving. I am free most weekends to dive and I am willing to travel as well. Good hearing from another freediver in the southeast!

J I'm not going to be able to make this Saturday but if your can and want to travel we can dive here at lake lanier or jocassee. I have 12 foot zodiac inflatable boat that I dive and spearfish from so that's option that open to the club. I'll still make plans in the near future, it's just that my wedding is 5 weeks away and trying to get last minute things lined up and organized kinda pops up on the weekend. sorry guys but I do look forward to getting back to the quarry to dive soon
