Cheers mate!
Saw a full page ad in GQ about that, good to see the vid.
Just looking at the Jura site...i quite like...
Ball Watch Company Chronometer COSC Arabic NM1020C-LCAJ-BK Watch at Jura Watches £744.00
Ball Watch Company GMT GM1032C Watch at Jura Watches £793.00 - Looks a lot like the Chopard GTXL that i like a lot but 1/3 the price
Ball Watch Company Ohio NM1026C-LJ-BK Watch at Jura Watches £489.00 - Swish
Didn't know they were that cheap, only a bit more than a Hamilton Mechanical that i was looking at. For that price i've got no quibbles at all, v good vfm

520' is 175m give or take a bit. Thats 18.5 ish bar.
Tanya's site gives a good explination of the different disaplines of free diving.
Now for a physics lesson, below 10m the human body becomes negatively bouyant so you sink, which is why in the first vid you see the guy sinking without finning.
There is a brit who went down to 300m on open circuit gear!!!! He spent something like 9 hours underwater!

Simon, they're probably the support crew for the crazy lady with the big fins, so the tek kit would be essential.
Do they have divers at different depths that would hand off to the next shallowest support divers when the lower ones hit their stop ceiling on ascent?

NXG, they are the support divers! Last 1 on her 120m attempt was at 100m IIRC.
Alot of my club are RB divers cos they like trimix diving, the mad nutters!

Two by the looks of the gauges, but why has he marked them with different coloured tape? Not going to be much good at depth, I'd have thought one band and two bands would be better...
