Training at Blue Hole, Dahab, Egypt, March 28-30th

Finally in Egypt! I've been looking forward to visiting the Blue Hole in Egypt for a long time, and it was fantastic to dive in warm, deep, clear water!
(It's difficult to find spots deeper than 15 meters in Denmark without a boat!)

This was my first time training Free Imersion and Constant Weight. We trained with Freedive Dahab. Linda was a great instructor, and gave me useful feed-back. My deepest dive was 36 meters, which I am quite satisfied with. It's awesome hanging at the end of the line, feeling the depth!

Diving with sharks March 24th 2010

Stig was training for a new Guinness world record and invited me to join him at Kattegatcentret for a training session with sharks. Here we freedived with a bunch of different shark species including sandbar sharks, nurse sharks, black tip and white tip reef sharks. It was a thrilling experience to dive with sharks. They were very calm and curious. Some of them swam close to us and one even brushed me with its fins!

Freediving under ice March 6th 2010

This cool winter has frozen the lakes and provided us with the opportunity to go below ice. Stig Åvall Severinsen set a new Guinness world record in diving under ice. He swam 72 meters wearing only goggles and trunks! Brr... Watch it here.

Freedivers from Aarhus Freediving Club enjoyed relocating training to a cool environment. A great opportunity for training dynamic with a "roof" over our heads.
More to come...
