During November Swedish Annelie Pompe returned to the Red Sea (Egypt) and set out to reclaim the Freediving Variable Weight World Record which is currently being held by Natalia Molchanova (127 meters). The sled used by Annlie during her attempt. I was fortunate enough to be approached by Emil Sergel of Sergelmedia to help with the filming of this project which is also being optioned to Red Bull as part of a 24

This review is aimed at competitive and recreational Freedivers (deep diving). Some time ago I did some research to find the best footpockets for a pair of newly acquired carbon blades and although there are quite a few options available on the market, my search was finally narrowed down to two brands.

This is to be my first ‘product review’ and how it came about was through the fins I’m about to review… I am a professional Freediving Instructor and judge (I do it full time for a living as opposed to being just a weekend instructor) and I currently work with, have dived and trained with some of the top freedivers and Freedive trainers in the world.

Over a period of roughly three weeks Sara did three dives outside the world famous Blue Hole in Dahab with

These last few months have been hectic with running freedive courses, training, video editing and competitions but I’ve had some time the last few days to start going through the multitude of freedive photography shots I’ve taken the last few months here in Dahab, Egypt. Will be posting mostly freediving shots over the next few days and might mix it with a few ‘surface’ shots of Dahab as well:) Thanks for

For those of you looking at the images in the Freediving section of this site and wishing you could hold your breath to explore beautiful reefs or simply dive deep… Its easier than you thought:) I am currently in Cape Town, South Africa and will be hosting Freedive courses on a fulltime basis for all those interested through my company Freedive Cape Town – part of Freedive International (for those
