Announced Performances CNF Finals
December 2, 2009 in News by Jorg Jansen
And here they are; the announced performances for the constant no fins finals for the men and women, that will take place tomorrow morning. If everything goes well, we will see three new world records and a total of nine national records.
With the women Natalia Molchanova is going for a world record with 62 meters. Niki Roderick and Jana Strain will fight it out for place two, if Natalia is successful.
For the men William Trubridge is going for a new world record with 90 meters, which shouldn’t be a problem if he can control his dive like he normally does in training. Herbert Nitsch is going for it and tries to go deeper then the current world record with a 89 meter attempt. That will be something. Deepest dive for him in training is 78 meters and in competition 74 meters. If he can make it, it will be a big progress.
Good luck to all tomorrow!

Don’t get why William chose only 90m? He show his best trainings results and it was clearly he could make 95+m.
Maybe something goes wrong and he doesn’t feel good?
Also interesting how they announce depth – could they see each other figures to make a correction in the last second?
@odvan if he manage to do it clean then it’s still enough.
No, they don’t know each other depths beforehand to make any last minute changes.
@Jorg I understand but it’s looks like one of two: he doesn’t feel well or he wants to do as much WR in CNF as he could. Or maybe he wants save energy for CWT.
Also William canceled his WR attempts after championship.
