Re: Cave diving

Hi Conner and Jeff,

Sorry this is a bit late, but since you started this thread several weeks ago, I've been thinking about it a lot and now I am just really interested. If cave freediving is legitimate, perhaps I can use it as my long-term goal. Could you please share more about your cave experiences?

I was checking out the long list of cave/cavern sites here: Florida Cave, Cavern, and Sinkhole Diving. Which sites permit freediving? (the sites permitting open water level divers?)

I apologize this is a silly-sounding question, but do you know whether IANTD and/or NACD look favorably upon cave freediving?

How did you get into this? Apart from safety issues, can you identify special techniques that you use in caves - do you use different finning technique? Do you train differently to do this? Are you guys all self-taught?

Thanks much,
maytag
