[News] William Trubridge announces "Project Hector"

Absoloutely superb, a true legend!!!!!

Does he have a little samba there?
 
Big congratulations for this dive, monster dive.

But in my book this is double OK sign... NHF
 
Yep i think too that the exit wasn't total clean it had a little samba but i mean really light one it was conscious, but we'll see. I think that after 100m like that having a little samba like that is somthing that do not count at all. still impressive. Also there was a judge there so if she gave him white card no complain at all accepted.
 
Well, samba is not a problem as such as long as the protocol is properly done. The double sign could be indeed a problem, regardless of the card Will got. Martin Stepanek also got a white card at his last CNF WR, but the record was then revoked after a protest (judges mistakenly told Martin that bottom camera is sufficient and they did not use any tags).
 
Little late on my congratulations Will.

but its insperational! a record that will NEVER be forgotten.

the Pure 100m is yours!!!!!

now take a well earned rest and start contemplating the next dive.

thanks again will for the insperation.

OK, so Will made 101 meters today (just to shake off any doubts of the samba yesterday). Well done! Huge performance, and huge congrats to Will!!!
 
That was the idea - I don't like 'shadows of doubt,' so today the surface protocol was much more decisive
Thanks Deeper Blue folk for all your support!
 
That's the way to go!
Brilliant... can't wait to see the whole dive...

Ps. actually the most impressive thing for me was the fact that Will did 3 dives to 100m CNF in 3 days!

That was the idea - I don't like 'shadows of doubt,' so today the surface protocol was much more decisive
Thanks Deeper Blue folk for all your support!

What a wonderful dedication (Hector's Dolphin) and an incredible dive. Trubridge, you are an inspiration.
