Which is why she kicks you butt in spinning class three days a week? Tongue

Acutally freediving is, more or less, FREE!

I just don't have the money to keep up with all of you with real jobs. It costs way too much money to keep up with all of the latest tropical dive locations, technical toys, charter fees, certifiacations, ect.

That doesn't mean that I am bored with diving after 25 years, just looking for a new challenge that's based on your skills as a diver and not the size of your wallet.

Just think of all the divers that you know who dive like total crap and yet are always coming back from some fantastic trip or tech dive.

That's also a big problem with techdiving. You don't have to be a great diver to go deep, just have the cash to fund it. There are plenty of really BAD tech diving instructors out there who prove this point very well. They are so out of shape and lacking of skill that they can't even dress themsleves for a dive- let alone HELP someone in trouble.

Freediving is all about putting in the time and being comfortable in the water. It is the one part of diving that you can't "buy" your way into.

It's also easier on my car when I am only loaded down with one gear bag at the end of a day instead of three bags and an easy half dozen tanks. 8)
