Nice pics! How deep can you freedive? I need a tank to go anywhere below 30.

Thanks 
That log is at approx. 20' and I can swim under it, trying for 45' which would be the bottom of the spring basin.

MysteryDiveBuddy:Thanks
Very deceptive photo. That log looks like it could be 60 foot. That is what I would tell people....who would know?

well I'm like 6.5-7' with the fins so if you take your fingers and get my length then go from the surface to the log it comes out about right so 60' would never fly

nice pics. with some gear changes I think you'd be hitting 45 easy.

my thoughts exactly... 1st thing in my book to change would be the mask. I remember getting limited by having to put so darn much air into the mask. MysteryDiveBuddy, you have to try out a good super low volume mask sometime.. it'll make that trip to 45' easy. I'd say change out the fins sometime too, but I've no finned it to just about 80' so I know that's not necessary, ohhhh but they help.Amphibious:
Nice pics though...they sure do look like you're deeper than you actually are. They are a bit large. with my screen setting I had to scroll over to view the whole pic.

I need some freediving fins but I have wierd feet so they aren't something I can buy on the Internet and they aren't often stocked in shops around here. As for the mask that is a Mares Seta and it's the lowest volume mask that I know of that will fit ( I have a funny face too )
Anyway thanks for the ideas. I don't find it difficult to fin down to the log I just don't dare go much deeper at the moment.

A good thing about not finding stuff easily off the net that fits you or is what you like is that you are able to accumulate a lot of stuff! Soon you have enough gear to invite the whole neighborhood along! I think you'll do great! Man, if I had water that clear to freedive in..... here we sometimes lanyard ourselves to a drop line so our buddy knows you are at least close to the rope if he has to go looking for ya...(or bring you up)

That's one of the freshwater springs around here, I love freediving there.
