The sun was a bit warmer and the sand flies were out. But that did not prevent 14 of the #VB2016 competitors from having a white card kind of day. In fact out of 17 performances there was only one DNS, one yellow card and one tiny red card for a fixable\/coachable surface-protocol infraction. Day 2 of Act One of Vertical Blue 2016 also welcomed five more record setting performances. The first record to fall was a Chinese record in constant no-fins (CNF) at 41 meters, executed one year ago by Jessea Lu in Cayman. Taking her training very seriously, Jessea put in the work and dropped her foot on the accelerator as she sailed down to 60 meters today in three minutes and :04 seconds.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cPushing this dive as deep as I could, while maintaining a clean performance, was my goal for this year\u2019s Vertical Blue\u201d shared Jessea, \u201chaving accomplished what I wanted to, now I can just play!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Luke Maillas of the Bahamas continued his initiation into the world of competitive freediving with a new national title in no-fins by completing a dive to 37 meters in a quick one minute and :33 seconds. Upon surfacing Luke quipped \u201cI need to work on my technique!\u201d but that being said, he is one of those rare and lucky people who can actually equalize hands-free! so we suspect his progression will be prompt.<\/p>\n<p>Ryuzo Shinomiya of Japan and Stephane Tourreau of France continued to demonstrate what sheer elegance in the water looks \u2014 seemingly becoming one with the water molecules as they both fluidly dove to 96 meters \u2014 in free immersion and constant weight, respectively. The next diver, Hanako Hirose, may just be this year\u2019s sleeper with another incredible and effervescent dive to 90 meters in a speedy two minutes and :52 seconds. There may be no more joyful or animated moment in this competition than when Hanako surfaces with contagious glee.<\/p>\n<p>William Trubridge, the event organizer, made his first showing today with a substantial offering in no-fins, a beautiful &amp; forceful dive to 90 meters, securing his gold medal in that category. And the technology gods smiled up Deans Blue Hole as well, with the new underwater drone, the X-Adventurer Freetracker diving in perfect unison alongside Trubridge, capturing his entire dive (video to follow!)<\/p>\n<p>Sofia Gomez continued her strong run with a free immersion dive to 82 meters, securing herself both a Colombian and a continental record. Gleaming gold in her Oceaner suit, Kate Middleton overcame her nerves to receive a white card for a Kiwi record. \u201cI was very nervous at the beginning\u201d, Kate shared, \u201ceven though I was controlling my breathing in my warm-up, my nerves had my heart rate very high. But thankfully just a few kicks into the dive I felt the \u201coh yeah, this feels good\u201d I was hoping for.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Estrella Navarro Holm ended the day in abundance, with her 22nd national record for Mexico, and a new competition personal best . \u201cDiving with the drone was nice; it felt like I had an extra safety diver down there with me, watching over me. I liked it!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>And Vertical Blue veteran and world-class photographer Igor Liberti dove for friendship. The kind-hearted &amp; creative athlete is making all of his dives in tribute to Nic Mevoli.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI am taking VB2016 dives slowly, I want to be in the water-column where Nic was. Today I dove to 52, I will proceed to 62 meters, and then I will finish at 72 meters \u2013 the depth Nic planned on.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Complete Results Day 2<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.sportalsub.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/dia2.jpg\" target=\"_blank\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-24030\" src=\"http:\/\/www.sportalsub.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/dia2.jpg\" alt=\"dia2\" width=\"1383\" height=\"667\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n\n<\/div><h2 class=\"tabtitle\">Day 1<\/h2>\n<div class=\"tabcontent\">\n\n<div class=\"td-post-header\">\n<header class=\"td-post-title\">\n<h2>Day 1\u00a0Vertical Blue 2016 &#8211;\u00a0April 22th<\/h2>\n<div class=\"td-post-author-name\">\u00a0<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-2031\" src=\"http:\/\/www.sportalsub.net\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/sayuri-09125.jpg\" alt=\"sayuri-09125\" width=\"1280\" height=\"854\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.sportalsub.net\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/sayuri-09125.jpg 1280w, https:\/\/www.sportalsub.net\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/sayuri-09125-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.sportalsub.net\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/sayuri-09125-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.sportalsub.net\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/sayuri-09125-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.sportalsub.net\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/sayuri-09125-177x118.jpg 177w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1280px) 100vw, 1280px\" \/><br \/>\nSayuri descends (photo by Daan Verhoeven)<\/div>\n<\/header>\n<\/div>\n<p>On the very first day of Vertical Blue 2016 an astonishing nine national records were set, and the competition has literally only just begun. The first dive of the day was a clean and exuberant performance by Hanako Hirose, one of the petite and powerful ladies from Japan, who opened the comp on a very happy note with a personal best dive to 88 meters. Aolin Wang of China set a new record in constant weight with a super speedy dive to 80 meters in just two minutes and :20 seconds. Then Dean Chaouche of Great Britain had a break-through\u2026 with a no-fins dive to 74 meters.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s been a hard work to get here. There have been a lot of hiccups for me but I am glad to finally set this record\u201d said Chaouche.<\/p>\n<p>Immediately after, perhaps the mightiest of the Japanese freedivers, Sayuri Kinoshita took center stage and put an exclamation point on her ability &amp; strength as she garnered a white card for a constant no-fins dive dive to an impressive 68 meters \u2014 improving not only her own previous national record but also surpassing the men. As Ryuzo Shinomiya said \u201cShe beat me!\u201c, albeit with great pride for his fellow country woman.<\/p>\n<p>Then after a short break Adam Stern of Australia, joined what is perhaps the most elite club in freediving \u2013 the 100 meter diver kabal with a determined performance in CWT in three minutes and :06 time.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019d like to thank the whole freediving community for making me the diver I am and for supporting all of my efforts.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Stig Pryds decided it was a good day for a personal best, and with ease and grace he delivered a white card dive to an incredible 98 meters in free immersion, also notably ahead of schedule. Furthermore, the ecstatic Pryds gleefully shared:<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNow every time I have a new PB I will have a new national record too!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>First-time VB attendee Italian Homar Leuci, (who is normally competing with CMAS), punctuated his inaugural event at Deans Blue Hole with a definitive new national record for AIDA in free immersion 95m CWT in three minutes and :07 seconds.<\/p>\n<p>Colombian Sofia Gomez Uribe proved again why she is one to watch with a commandingly deep dive to an astounding 93 meters in a fast two minutes and :44 seconds, and a new national record to show for it. \u201cI am so happy!\u201d exclaimed Sofia \u201cI felt so good in my dive\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>Fan favorite, Tomoka Fukuda also made a 93 meter attempt, but sadly having completed the dive she was foiled by the pesky surface protocol. Camila Jaber decided it was time for her first national record in no-fins and took the Mexican title in two minutes and :15 seconds. \u201cMy dive was super bueno!\u201d Camila beamed.<\/p>\n<p>Next up for a no-fins national title was Anna Von Boetticher, who set a record with an easy (for her) dive to 47 meters, although contractions began quite early for her, as shallow 20 meters, so thankfully the German diver could rely on her experience to persevere. \u201cWhy does anyone do this?!\u201d she joked, \u201cbut seriously, I am happy to be back!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Among the nine was Luke Maillis who set the first-ever freediving record for his home country (and the host country of #VB2016), the Bahamas. A constant weight dive to 46 meters in bi-fins has Luke on the books.<\/p>\n<aside class=\"mashsb-container mashsb-main\">\n<div><strong>\u00a0Complete Results Day 1<\/strong><\/div>\n<div><a href=\"http:\/\/www.sportalsub.net\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/day1results.jpg\"><br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-2034 size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/www.sportalsub.net\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/day1results.jpg\" alt=\"day1results\" width=\"1385\" height=\"858\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.sportalsub.net\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/day1results.jpg 1385w, https:\/\/www.sportalsub.net\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/day1results-300x186.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.sportalsub.net\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/day1results-768x476.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.sportalsub.net\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/day1results-1024x634.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1385px) 100vw, 1385px\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<\/aside>\n<div class=\"td-post-content\">\n<div class=\"td-post-featured-image\"><\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n<\/div><h2 class=\"tabtitle\">Pre<\/h2>\n<div class=\"tabcontent\">\n\n<h2><strong>Vertical Blue 2016 Starts Friday!<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-2026\" src=\"http:\/\/www.sportalsub.net\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/Descending-into-Vertical-Blue.jpg\" alt=\"Descending into Vertical Blue\" width=\"900\" height=\"752\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.sportalsub.net\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/Descending-into-Vertical-Blue.jpg 900w, https:\/\/www.sportalsub.net\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/Descending-into-Vertical-Blue-300x251.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.sportalsub.net\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/Descending-into-Vertical-Blue-768x642.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>This week on April 22nd, 2016, 36 world-class athletes from 20 different countries will join dual World Record holder, William Trubridge, to compete in the 2016 Vertical Blue Freedive Challenge at Dean\u2019s Blue Hole, Bahamas.<\/p>\n<p>This freediving depth-competition is \u201c<em>the<\/em>\u201d sporting event of the year for elite competitive freedivers \u2013 the \u201cWimbledon of Freediving\u201d, as dubbed by the <em>NY Times<\/em>.<strong><em>\u201c<\/em><\/strong><strong><em>VB 2016 looks like it will be our biggest year yet, with the top athletes in the world registered.\u00a0 We have capped the number and invited all the top-ranked athletes from the previous calendar year, so that Vertical Blue maintains its standard as the most elite competition in freediving\u201d<\/em><\/strong> exclaimed Trubridge.<\/p>\n<p>Now in its ninth incarnation Vertical Blue also provides, a spectator-friendly competition zone, so fans can watch the record-breaking battles among the world\u2019s most\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/2016.verticalblue.net\/\" data-saferedirecturl=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/url?hl=es&amp;q=http:\/\/2016.verticalblue.net\/&amp;source=gmail&amp;ust=1461276485433000&amp;usg=AFQjCNEOHJeB6blM24VqDG0QaR54xYcO3w\" target=\"_blank\">talented athletes<\/a>, who are literally pushing the limits on what was once thought impossible for the human body to do.<\/p>\n<p>Comprised of three depth disciplines: Constant Weight, Constant No-Fins and Free Immersion (CWT, CNF, FIM respectively) this AIDA judged competition offers competitors six official dives to challenge themselves and their rivals to obtain the coveted Vertical Blue Championship title.
