  • Ahhh haaa! So this is where everyone is now seeking refuge? jk


    Well my name shouldn't be to hard to figure out. I've been diving for almost 2 years now and have made some great friends and had some incredible experiences that would not have been possible without the sport of freediving. I love the psychical and mental exercise of diving and am always looking to grow as a diver and expand my knowledge of the ocean.


    I've pretty much surfed my whole life up until about two years ago when I had a pretty nasty accident on a trip to nicaragua where I broke a bunch of ribs and shredded my back. I wasnt able to get back in the water for quite some time and somewhere along the way I picked up freediving as a way to get back in the water. Now I find myself diving more then surfing...even when theres waves :rolleyes1:


    Well enough of the match.com intro, just wanted to get this out of the way so I can start posting and sharing some of my experiences that I havent felt comfortable putting out on other sites. Some of you know me and the rest that dont...well I look forward to meeting/diving with you in the future. So far I'm pretty impressed with the way this site seems to be formatted and think there is a lot of potential in growing this community. :toast:
