Why do freedivers wear long fins? Longer blades move more water per kick, which means fewer kicks, which means less oxygen burned. Efficiency is everything when your air supply is whatever you brought with you.

The ocean doesn't ask you to be anything. You just sink into it. Freediving taught me that stillness isn't something you find, it's something you become.

The urge to breathe isn't your body running out of air. It's CO2 building up, knocking on the door, asking if you're still home. You are. You just don't have to answer yet.

Freediving in Dahab

Home again after a fantastic freediving week in Dahab and the Blue Hole. 17 members of Active Divers traveled to Dahab on the 26/10 to participate in a 6 day training week and it turned out to be a very successful week for all of us. With a lot of new knowledge and many new PB’s we all got home with a big smile on our faces :)
