no contractions?

I like the idea of the FRV Bill. For someone who doesn't get contractions and is safety concious they sound perfect. I am going to wait until the II S is available Jan 2015 and order one. Youve been a great help thankyou for your time.

If you are safety conscious I suggest less weight and a ssi level 1 freediving course Rockie. Your eyes will soon be opened!
 
I’m in the same boat as the OP.. no contractions. I am new to freediving myself, and can sit here at home for example (pushing my limit more than in the water) and breath hold for 4 mins or so, and I don’t have a single contraction. I just suddenly get that very strong urge to breath, and my toes start wiggling all over the place and I start squirming… I can see this being an issue under the water. I’ve never pushed it underwater so I didn’t really know about this until I started practicing at home lately.

I’ll have to start looking at some good watches soon that can help with this.
