The BlueSkunk Bubble Ring Challenge 2005
The first event of its kind finally drew to a close. BlueSkunk Freedivers hereby proudly announce that:
The BlueSkunk Bubble Ring World Champion 2005 is non other than freediving superstar:
Herbert Nitsch
He was rightfully awarded this title after an internal investigation, initiated after a protest, disclosed that competitor ChristianRedl, the candidate with the most votes, actually misused his powers of judging by voting multiple times for himself which led to his eventual disqualification from the event.
Herbert Nitsch won this challenge with a staggering 27 votes ahead of his closest rival. It has to be acknowledged yet again that Mr Nitsch is indeed an athlete of extraordinary ability. We bow our heads in awe! May the sun forever shine on this blessed individual and may his example guide us into a bright future.
Official results:
1.place herbert
2.place turtle
3.place immerlustig
Honorary mentions for supreme bubble rings go to:
sansan for the biggest
er453r for the zen-est
octopus for the purest
watts for the coldest
apneannelie for the creative-est
The organizers wish to extend a warm ‘thank you’ to everyone who participated and helped to make this event possible. It also shows that the art of bubble rings is alive and well.
Hopefully we meet each other again for the next bubble ring challenge, scheduled September 2006.
Until then, peace and harmony, everybody.
…and bubble on!
Roland
