Sweden won the Finnkampen title

Well I noticed the same thing, but to me, it was surprisingly little packing for that caliber of performance.

I counted "only" 15, where as Tom Sietas does 80-90 packs. Even my self over 30 for that puny 100m dive. Of course there are different styles of packing - some do small but many, others large volume but few. But even in the latter case I think 15 is quite conservative for an experienced "packer".
 
Hi Jome

More of a personal though that Anders and I keep coming back too, the amount of air is as you all would agree on, ain't static. It's differs from time to time.
Some dives the first big breath ain't 100% ok, but you can manage it with a "clever" pack, and some dives the first is bigger and better than "normal" and packing is adjusted to that. But on occasion I personally feel to packed, but keep diving with too full lungs, just to adapt.
But lately it has been more moderate packing or less than usual and still room to improve in length or time of the dive.
