Re: freediving
What is wrong with taking the freediving class to improve your freediving and safety? Because i am pretty sure they put a big emphasis on SAFETY right? I really like the idea of taking the course to improve my depth and time, so i can reach my goals and also be able to shoot more and bigger fish. Also, about the going to the market to talk about diving..notice the quote said "when i couldn't go DIVING".. not "couldn't go SPEARING." Maybe the fish aren't in, is it bad if i went out just to work on my breathold?? or should i sit around the marina on a beautiful day and talk about spearing?

Re: freediving
Average depth probly 15 to 20 due to the type of fish I like to eat with dives going much deeper for dog tooth or grouper with alot of the snapper and grouper in guam they like wrecks the start at about 60 and bottom out at 125 such as the toki maru but reef fish are tasty and easy to get like "hangoin" or orange tail tang time depends intirely on the day some days are good others bad in 15ft 3:45 in 125ft being my very limit about 18 to 22 seconds if i see something if i dont ill turn around at 90 and head up i have been freediving and spearfishing for money and fun for 16 years i got a jbl when i turned 6 (death to mullet)

Re: freediving
I think the freediving course is a great idea. If he has a problem with it so what, if you feel like it makes you a better diver and you got your money out of it then who cares what he thinks. You are only as good at spearfishing as your diving allows, if you can improve your techniques as far as diving goes then it will only help improve your chances of bringing home dinner.

Re: freediving
Are you saying freediving courses are in themselves useless or when people try to apply what they learn to spearfishing?
