I remember you telling me once when we were out there that you could freedive good enough to get four decent size abs. That was always pretty much my motto, well then three abs, and now unfortunately none.Depends on where one has to lug the tank, how long the surface swim is to the dive site,and what water one is in when sucking the air. You are certainly right if the diver just drops off a boat and dives right there.
I always found that overall free diving was easier, of course I wasn't trying to set records and about 40' was good enough for where I was diving. I could get a bit deeper, but I wasn't a fan. I could certainly move around a lot easier and faster without all the scuba gear.
BTW, Jennifer says hi.
I’ve been involved quite a bit at the dive shop lately.
