Re: [News] New British Freediving Record

Awesome work Liv! Was a pleasure to watch and a very well deserved record.

Liv is now officially the Queen of the Pool, holding all of the British pool records. Yay Livvy!

And to something a bit more concerning - is anyone worried that the Newsbot has 666 posts?

Re: [News] New British Freediving Record

Here are the results. Dynamic No Fins scores had a factor of 1.3 added for comparison with dynamic.

Particular mention to the new guys who attended their first comp and did so well, even if the results may not have reflected it every time. And congratulations to Ross Elliot for taking the award for Best Newbie, very well deserved!

Can't not mention the huge effort Matt Kitchen put out to get this comp up and running, it's been a labour of love/hate for some time and Matt has proved his organisational superiority to us mere mortals once again. Well done mate!

Cheers,
Ben

Re: [News] New British Freediving Record

wow wow wow - well done Liv! and of course Matt for organising. Sorry we couldn't be there (but hey I ended up at Glastonbury so I'm not THAT sorry!)

SaltFree Double Dip in two weeks time - we could do with a few more entries to make ends meet and could really really do with some safety freedivers for the warm up area. If you'd like to enter, or help - please get in touch by Friday (when entries close)

thanks and well done again to everyone in Brockwell - who were the judges?
