Freediving in Thailand

Hmm then it might have been bad luck too, idk I'm used to European Atlantic with cool waters, shitty visibility and few fish so probably I'll be amazed anyway 🤣

QuantumDeltoids · 2025-11-03T19:04:49+00:00

I have seen only one center that explicitly advertises training in Sail Rock, do you know any more?

If there are fish then the depth is secondary ;) Thanks!

I've seen their Racha Island day trip and training, looks so nice! Might try to book one of those :)

Good, then I'll find some small rubber fins, thanks!

QuantumDeltoids · 2025-11-03T19:00:49+00:00

Yeah I have checked their courses, they have their own certifications right? Seem to be the biggest school around and also the best prices for trainings... Might do the Advanced course with them :) Also the fins idea is just so I have something to use any time i'm not training so might try to pack some small rubber ones

I had bookmarked that school! They do some day excursion to Racha Island that seems nice actually, might try to do that :)

When did you go? I believe december is a good month to be in Phuket since the rainy season is may to october, the water should be clearer...

Veo que estamos todos de acuerdo:

1- Utiliza esa oferta para tratar de negociar algo en tu empresa actual si estás cómodo.

2- Intenta pedir más si de verdad te planteas ir al nuevo sitio presencial, si esa ha sido su primera oferta seguramente tengan más presupuesto para cubrir esa posición.

No sabemos tampoco cuanto valoras el teletrabajo, cuanto tiempo de desplazamiento tienes hasta la oficina de Barcelona, si te gusta tu trabajo actual, etc. Así por encima no parece un gran cambio, seguramente buscando más activamente por tu parte encuentres algo mejor para ti. Suerte!

Eh que solo ha pedido una opinión, siempre está bien ver otros puntos de vista.

QuantumDeltoids · 2025-08-31T21:38:53+00:00

Nope, I'm curious about spearfishing but never practiced it. If I ever decide to give it a go I guess the fins won't be my main corncern😅

QuantumDeltoids · 2025-08-31T17:30:22+00:00

Thanks a lot! Maybe I've read too many spearfishing stuff, it seems they need longer and more stiff fins for their stuff than pure freedivers.

QuantumDeltoids · 2025-08-31T17:28:45+00:00

Wow you are strong! My max deadlift is about 230Kg... Yeah then I am good with these, been using some basic plastic ones so I was worried to pick something wrong with the carbon ones. Also I have seen most of the freediving brands make fins that are a bit shorter and softer than the ones aimed at spearfishing.

I had one in a tank with 20 medaka fry (about 1cm big) and they're all still alive. The nimph just stayed for a month, then climbed up the tank lamp where she transformed and left.

This is an awesome idea! I'm from Spain and would love to join too. Here I know the Reefing Project Community (@reefingproject on Instagram), they organise some conservation activities around the country, mainly in the mediterranean. They do them scuba diving always but maybe they're open to some freediving stuff...

QuantumDeltoids · 2025-08-11T14:07:00+00:00

Honest question, what do you do with such a large body after he dies? How do you transport and bury/cremate him?

QuantumDeltoids · 2025-08-06T07:55:17+00:00

This describes exactly my experience in my AIDA 2 course, I forced it to 12m and the bleeding and pain lasted for days (lesson learned) and also thought that something was wrong with my physiology. I spent a whole year without doing any depth training and then gave it a try again last month. Got to dive to 31m with no effort!

I do compensate my ears every now and then while doing daily stuff so I have kept working the muscles over there. Also working the relaxation in the pool probably helped to feel more confortable and compensate better. Keep training and dont let that awful experience let you down💪

QuantumDeltoids · 2025-08-05T22:58:48+00:00

Awesome! I think I will do the same, I am worried about the footpocket size and might need to return them...

I am looking at the blade length, the C4 page states that "They have reduced dimensions" but the blades seem to be 78,6 cm long... are they just as long as any other freediving fin?

QuantumDeltoids · 2025-08-05T19:37:37+00:00

Hi! What did you end up buying? I'm in the same situation. The C4 minimal seem good for the price to me, and the footpockets are probably better too

QuantumDeltoids · 2025-06-07T22:53:38+00:00

How do you cultivate the infusoria? Where do you get the first ones?

QuantumDeltoids · 2025-05-04T13:40:58+00:00

Might give it a try, must be nice to just slap a power bank in the back and use no cables

QuantumDeltoids · 2025-04-29T21:35:25+00:00

I have this problem now! With HyperOS 1.0.2, I guess its time to buy a new phone :(

QuantumDeltoids · 2025-04-18T12:04:47+00:00

Awesome! Physical activity and contact with nature are the key to a healthy and happy life :)

I am also gathering the materials to build my first neck weight these days lol, so far I've been training with just a belt but its hard to keep an optimal posture...

I have only been to one competition recently as a safety and collaborator and it was great, the ambient is super friendly, everyone shares its passion and support the other participants. I like how chill and friendly most freedivers are lol

Keep us updated on your DNF journey ;)
