    I know a lot of divers who are better than but there not interested in spearfishing,most of them are freediving instructors but I will do my best to convince one to dive with me

    Dan please don’t get me wrong , I do appreciate the feedback from every diver in this forum but I am trying to explain exactly my problem to Marco

    As you said I will just take it step by step until I reach my target ....thanks everybody

    i don’t think that I am doing anything wrong but what I am trying to say is that my bottom time even at 10 meters for spearfishing it’s not that good

    Keep in mind that I am talking about bottom time for spearfishing and not freedive , a lot of divers can dive for 30 meters but not all of them can hung on the bottom for at least one minute searching for a fish at depth like that

    I did so many breath hold tables both o2 and co2 but none seems to work .

    I have talked to my freedive instructor regarding the equalization beyond 21 meters , he said that I have to do diaphragm stretches

    I did take freediving course I couldn’t dive more than 21 meters due to equalization problem but spearfishing to 21 meters its seems to be difficult at this time

    I am been doing cardio a lot recently just to improve my bottom times as matters of fact I change my whole life style just to become a good spearo but nothing seems to be working

    I am diving straight down but my dive time is max 30 second and this why I couldn’t go farther or hung at bottom.all what I do is just see the fish from the serface go shoot it then come up again and the fish has to be within max 10 meters depth otherwise I will not be able to dive to it because I couldn’t hold my breath that long

    I have seen some spearos in you tube dive for 20-40 meters in hung at bottom for atl least one minute and come up again at surface with total dive time around 3 minuets...how is that possible I mean it seem really hard , i can hardly dive to 10 meters no matter what kind of training I do , still couldn’t make it beyond 10 meters for spearfishing

    Is there something that I am doing wrong or those spearos that I am seeing in you tube are just unique?

    Thanks everyone for the info.... I am starting to fall in love with this forum already.

    Yes I am wearing 1.5 mm Sox

    Next time I will try 2 mm and sea how it goes

    I will definitely try those fins over and over again untill I break them ...lol

    Hello everyone , I bought the c4 fins medium stiffness about two weeks ago and I have used them twice so far.

    I noticed that they are quite heavy in the water and very hard to kick with them ....have anyone has the same problem with those fins or could be only me

    I am an average build guy and I weight around 90 kilos (198ib) and befor I forget I get some cuts in my ankle every time I use them
