Things are heating up after Cyprus! Here's a list of new world record attempts from the AIDA website, summarized as follows:
This week: (June 18-22)
Herbert Nitsch:
Cancelled constant weight attempt, free immersion, constant without fins, and variable weight (broken ear drum probably the reason why).
Static Apnea: he's made the prerequisite, going for 8'08 +
Tanya Streeter: (June 16th-24th)
Static apnea: going for 6'18, already made a prerequisite static of 6'08
Constant without fins: going for 30m, already made it in training. There is no AIDA record on the books. (FREE world record is -40m by Yasemin Dalikilic)
Variable weight: going for -112m, made -106m prerequisite
Coming up in July:

Did you miss that last item? Pipin has announced a no limits world record attempt with AIDA. I imagine he will be going for -171m, the same depth Audrey reached. Let's just hope he makes the record safely.
