Which Freediver Wants A Free Range Rover?
January 28, 2010 in News by Jorg Jansen
Dubai resident Sara-Lise Haith sent me a mail announcing the Fazza Freediving Championship UAE, a small freediving competition in Dubai where you can win a free Range Rover. In the past competition the results where pretty doable for some top freedivers, so maybe it’s something for you to join?
Keep in mind that the date of the competition can change somewhat if you want to participate. Last time it was not a regular freediving competition, so keep that in mind.
FAZZA FREEDIVING CHAMPIONSHIP UAE – APRIL 2010
The Diving Championship (Hiyari), commonly known amongst international freedivers as the “Dubai Range Rover Freediving Competition), will be held at the Le Meridien Mina Seyahi from 8th April 2010 – 9th April 2010.
Under the patronage HH Sheikh Hamdan bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Chairman of Dubai Executive Council, the Fazza’ Championships include traditional sporting events including falconry, hunting with dogs, archery, freediving (hiyari) and the renowned youla championships.

I received the press release below about the US National Freediving Championships that will take place in Hawaii from April 22-25. Looks like it’s going to be an interesting competition, so if you’re in the neighborhood, go for it! US National Freediving Championship set for April 22 through 25, 2010 at Freedive Paradise event. 
AIDA International has a new website and a new web address. It is not yet made public on the old website. Probably because it’s still work in progress. But it is already looking to good for not mentioning it here.

Jorg, I don’t know what you call “pretty doable”. Last time Tom Sietas won with one of his 8′xx, and consider that you can wear only a swimsuit and have to hang on a rope two meters below… Well it would be interesting to see if Mifsud is interested in a Range Rover too.
Well, it seems that Tom Sietas isn’t interested anymore in competing. So give it your best shot!
