I love freediving a hundred times more than scuba.

[TRCVyrus]

6-7 meters..

[thefan12345]

good guess for the most part!

Awesome... What depth is it?

[thefan12345]

Most ofit is between 4m - 8m, however at 1min of video I'm down at 9m and at 4:40 I'm down at 21.5m (we had the spot marked with a diving watch). I can go down to about 25m but usually it gets so cold I can't go any deeper, I need to go diving with a wet suit.

[benekwon]

you mean dry suit

[thefan12345]

You don't need a dry suit when diving in Greece (unless diving in winter), a wet suit will suffice. Using a dry suit in freediving would make it difficult because of the pressure and the need to put air in the suit at depth.

Thanks maros, I filmed it with a sony DSC-V1 and a Ewa-Marine housing (it's actually a plastic bag lol) and I was very nervous about taking this camera down in this bag. Its also really awkward as there's air in the bag so the camera is trying to float to the surface, at the same time I'm trying to swim down so it difficult to keep hands still.

I swimming in the mediterrenean. Possibly the best swimming experience I ever had aside from being in the Atlantic Ocean (in the south...not the north lol)
