Some big no fins dives were done and the day ended with no red cards at all. Congrats to all divers doing PBs today!

Hello fellow freedivers! The Lazy Seals are happy to announce the Apneists' Challenge 2009, our first competition of the year. It will be held over the weekend of 16-17 May at the Trust Porirua Aquatic Centre. It is a pool competition, so divers will compete in static breath-hold, dynamic with fins and dynamic without fins.

Kathryn McPhee, Dave Mullins and Guy Brew all ended 2008 on a high, taking four World Freediving Awards between them.

Fran from No Bubbles is coming back to Wellington to run another weekend freeiving course 13-15 February. here will be theory on the Friday evening with two full on days of diving and trying out different techniques over the weekend. These courses are highly recommended to everyone from absolute beginner freedivers to the most acomplished spearo.

The first week of the new year was a productive one for several of the lazy seals, with the first ever Dive Camp NZ going off without a hitch.

In December last year, Lazy Seals Kathryn McPhee and David Mullins were awarded the ICARE trophy for Best Female and Best Male Freediver of the year, respectively.
