Salty Divers Mini Apnea workshop & Free Diving Training with Centurion Freedivers.

Fernando from Centurion Freedivers doing some warm up excersizes, breathing apnesa and relaxation techniques
This past friday night the Salt Rock Spearfishing Club was treated to a mini apnea workshop & training session by Fernando from Centurion Freediviers. We did some basic freediving physics and physiology. Fernando also covered the basic saftey guidlines and practices. The practical started with some relaxation techniques and apnea breathing techniques. These were very in lightning and it will be good to go and implement these out in the sea.

Fernando instructing the Co2 and O2 tables practical session in the pool.

After we were warmed up and relaxed we headed to the pool to put into practice some apnea excersizes. We did static apneas using Co2 and O2 Tables, this was a real eye opener for most who very easily under Fernando's instruction broke there personal bests and reached each the taget times with ease.

After the pool session the guys and their wives enjoyed some drinks complements of SAB and a braai around the pool. A big thanks to Fernando for putting the training session and course material together and Princes grant for the use of their pool.

Spearfishing and Surfing - Whats Up?

Hey guys,

At the onset of the weekend I was quiet bleak, coz the rivers had come down and wrecked what would have been an all time dive weekend.

But all was not lost, as it turned out the surf was fairly good and surfable from Friday morning till mid afternoon Sunday. On Friday there was some goos swell and my lighty was getting some serious double over head waves ...and beattings :-)

The conditions we great yeasterday and dispite the small swell I landed up surfing for almost 8 hours. Braiden churps up on our out the surf "I still have some energy" ... damn I miss those days!!
Anyway its monday morning, I am sunburned, stiff and only think of one thing ..... and its not work :-)

This Friday nite the Salt Rock Spearfishing Club's monthly meet. 

This a key evening as we will be setting things up for the year.
 On the agenda will be:
  • Club Fees & what we will be doing as far as shirts or jackets for the year.
  • Club Trip?
  • I will also be doing a short tutorial on making a basic flasher ...
  • And we are currently in the throws of redesigning the Club logo and web site, and I am sure there will be some discussion around this.
We will be doing the "Dop n Chop" thing at my place......  and the long term forecast shows no rain!!!!
This will be a good one to invite some mates ...oh and bringing the wife and kids is a must!
