SaltFree 3 days Easter Break

Easter weekend at SaltFree was fantastic, We all met up on Friday morning and went down to the platform on a cold, wet morning and began to sort the lines out and get ready for some new P.B's.

The bad weather gave way on Sat and Liv Phillips (National Record Holder) came down to do her 55mtr CWT dive which looked fantastic! Leaving us meir mortals on the 30mtr line.

Sat was a great day and saw some personal new P.B's in CWT & FIM disciplines and also some more on Sun at the end of the day.

Liv gave me all the much anticipated details for my first competition which is being held on May 31st at Camberwell which you can check out here.....

This is the competition i have been waiting for since last year and after sending off for my BFA Membership i can now get into some training specifically for Dynamic and Static. I have 6wks to prepare now and everyday counts so here goes....

THAT'S SOME BIG FEET!! Quack!

SaltFree March Constant Weight

A good solid dive at SaltFree last weekend (shown above). The weekend was a great experience and the platform looked amazing thanks to Dave & Sam. It was also great to meet someone who i have been e mailing for the past, god knows how long (Mr Jay Cluskey). I was also glad that he doesn't eat south African peace crisps or muesli bars!!

I am back at SaltFree at Easter time for 3 days to improve my depth part of freediving which will hopefully see me diving to some good solid depths?

I have now secured sponsorship from two people now http://www.ad2000servicesltd.co.uk/ and http://www.9lounge.co.uk/ AD2000 services sponsor me for all my training expenses now which allows me to take time off to train and fund my training needs, they are a fantastic security company who i have used for over 6yrs now as a major service provider to my day job. They operate nationally and are one of those companies that is "small enough to care & big enough to do the job" they have supported me deliver some pretty hard results in my job and employ some of the best security personnel i have ever meet.

Nyne cocktail lounge operate out of Bexley Heath and sponsor me for my equipment and is run by Pete Marshal (world champion cocktail god!!) whom without i simply could not afford the kind of products i need to compete with this year, so a massive thank you to you both for getting behind me and my love for this sport.

ITV Meridian Tonight Coverage of WR

I was contacted by ITV after our fund raising WR attempt that has now seen the UK officially break the Australian WR for extreme ironing. I was interviewed yesterday and the news went out last night. I did a 5min interview which heard me say the words SaltFree a hundred times and they only managed to get in a bit about our training as freedivers :-(

I wanted to give my new founded home a great plug but at least i managed to get my NDC t-shirt printed up in the morning with SaltFree (the deepest freediving in the UK) & Woodstock Divers (the club that allow me kindly to train every week) which was something.

Anyway...enjoy!
