Welcome Lee, freediving is the way to go. Hope you enjoy it as much as we do.
Sup Lee!!! Welcome!!!:thumbsup2:
Thanks guys!
Welcome Lee!
Lee, what is the meaning of your user name? Is bulit just a cool misspelling of bullet? Why 7?
LOL! Yeah, you got it. It is also the license plate on my bike.
Remember the movie Bullet with Steve McQueen? A take on that!
Thanks for the welcome guys! I like this board. Way more civilized than Spearboard. No mega egos...
Dont mind me if I dont contribute much. I read a lot and as soon as things mellow out here, Im gonna start to freedive again. Maybe even post a report or two with some speared ornamentals! LOL!
Cheers! Lee

Brian, I used to freedive way more than I do these days. Back in California it was an every weekend deal. After all them years of messing with chemicals, I diminished my lung capacity. I was never a 2 plus minute apnea kind of guy. Few are. So the little breathhold I had, I killed. Im down to 45 to 60 seconds working breathhold and that gives me a max depth of 60 for a quick peek or a little more working time at 40. 40 feet is where Im comfortable. As you know, You aint gonna shoot much here in Florida at 40 feet. That is how I switched into tank diving. No sport, strictly to fill the dinner plate. Still better than sitting in a boat with a beer in one hand and a rod in another. That shit even sounds gay!:laughing:

You can heal to some degree and me and the guys will give you support, but we need your help.
1. Vent that boat bilge when spraying carb cleaner and other nastys...and get a good mask.
2. If you smoke cigs think about stopping .
3. If you think I'm going to tell you to give up Cuban Cigars your more crazy than I thought.:D;)
Cheers, Don
Lee, you remember I disagreed with you about the breath hold before, I think anyone can do a 3 minute static. It's just a matter of breathing up a certain way. Then to make it happen in the sea is you just gotta' break the psychological barrier along with tweaking the surface entry and descent a little.
Thanks guys. No cigs here, Don.
Dan, maybe I just need to work harder than most. Might be that technique has a lot to do with it.
Built 7--welcome sir. Hope you like it here as much as I do.
I have learned a lot on this forum and have met some great people here.
Glad to have you here
Thanks Hau!
