Sukeltaja Indoor Apnea 2008 in Helsinki

Thread Status: Hello , There was no answer in this thread for more than 60 days.
It can take a long time to get an up-to-date response or contact with relevant users.
Just a friendly reminder - there's 2 weeks left for registration - sign up and ensure your place in best freediving event in Finland so far!
 
Might pop over to finland for a swim, but it depends on a few things not in my control yet. We´ll see. Sure looks like a nice pool!
 
Less than a week to register! Still looking for some high profile international Guests.

Here's a few things to whet your appetite

-Who wants to be a movie star? We've got a professional crew (Tekkore.Net Consulting) hired to produce a DVD of the event. For a sample look at the competition trailer:
http://www.tekkore.net/transfers/FDHD.wmv - footage will be shot in HD so make sure you're on it by registering!

-We've got some pretty nice prizes from our sponsors Suunto and Tivoli Audio - I won't spoil the surprise, but it's not hard to guess what Suunto product might be sort of hot for freediving right now.

-We've changed the Guest series so that all international guests compete in the individual disciplines as well (previously we had only "total points" guest series). Naturally the Finnish Champion can still be only a finnish national.

What a great competition. I don't think I've ever been in another pool that was this perfect for freediving (despite living in finland this was the first time for me in there).

2 new national records:
Mikko Pöntinen DNF 131m
Eero Soralahti DYN 184m

The rest of the results are here:

Huge thanks to everyone who participated in the organizing, as well as all the competitors
 
Nice results! Eero is going strong...

Seems like a great competition. Would have loved to be there to put up a fight!

Total winner? Antero? Or was it by discipline?
 
It was individual competition per discipline, but we always have a bonus award for most total points, which went to Antero for the second time out of three
 
Well done to everyone. Man, Antero is a tank! Eero is going strong too, great to see him cement a fantastic performance.

Seems like there were a few Surfacing penalties, were there some issues with the pool being shallow at one end? Maybe your local lead dealer is ripping you all off
 
Jome,

The result link is amazing! I followed 'live' the competition at home as last time, really good job and great results from everybody!

Best regards,
Balázs
