Vertical Blue and Dean\u2019s Blue Hole on Long Island, Bahamas have long been recognized as the pinnacles of freediving \u2013 where giants of the sport contend to be the champion of champions. At\u00a0Vertical Blue 2023 by Garmin<\/strong>\u00a0we expect nothing short of a spectacular 15th<\/sup>\u00a0anniversary where 40 athletes from 20 different countries will attempt personal bests, national records and world records alike. This elite depth-competition is the premier sporting event of the year for the world\u2019s most talented competitive freedivers \u2013 the \u201cWimbledon of Freediving<\/em>\u201d, as dubbed by the\u00a0NY Times<\/em>. And with the deepest, self-propelled divers ever in history, going head-to-head this epic event promises an unforgettable experience that will leave us all breathless.<\/p>\n

Garmin understands the importance of physiological analytics and aims to empower freedivers to push their limits and discover their full potential by aligning goals with scientific insights\u00a0\u00a0\u2013 which is exactly what all of the #VB2023 athletes are striving to achieve.<\/p>\n
