My wish is long term. I want to dive to same depth in meters as I'm old in years. And of course, every year add one meter at least. Hey, how long (and deep) can I go? Will it depends on my age or diving abilities?

 

[Pastor]

Wouldn't that be nice if you could get stuck at 21m sigh

To read more of the free diving threads, find out just how long I can hold my breath & how deep I can dive?

 

[TRITON]

I'm happy to say that I've already achieved one of the goals for 2008. ,I did 157m DYN.

 

[azapa]

And how many coffee can I drink in 2008:t:t:t

 

[whucash]

I know it may sound funny but my goal for this year is to reach 60 feet... And due to my ear problems i couldn't reach that depth before...
Keep your fingers crossed

Goals are relative to our own limitations (internal) and the standard set by the community (external)... 60' was a very deep dive not too many years ago, and most people on the planet can't dream of doing that. The path is its own reward. Good luck!

Not sure if I quite understand that? - I dont drink caffeine loaded drinks!

 

[azapa]

maybe you should start? there is a lot of nay saying here regarding coffee and diving, but (at my level) I have never seen a big difference. Now, being drunk and up late the night before.........take a 50% cut in your apnea abilities...
