October 2022 We recently had an opportunity to try our hands (and feet) on free-climbing on real rock and we absolutely loved it. Free climbing is the discipline of rock climbing In which the climber may use climbing equipment such as ropes and other means of climbing protection, but only to protect against injury during falls and not to assist in progress. The other discipline would be called technical climbing which you could maybe compare to no-limits diving with the aid of sledges and lifting devices. I have always been wondering why there is such a large number of freedivers who are also ..read more

Liquidstate Freediving Blog 3rd June 2022 (Opinion piece) On one of the first pages of every AIDA course audiovisual, it is being stated that freediving is a “social” activity. This statement is obviously intended to encourage freedivers and prospective freedivers to form or join the freediving family and spread the gospel. AIDA as a non-profit organization has done their share to promote and advance modern freediving and I believe this statement comes from a good place in the heart of the organization. Before joining the freediving “family”, I regarded freediving as an intensely introspective ..read more

When we set about creating Liquidstate Freediving for years ago, fresh from the vibrant and social Asian freediving scene, we had this big idea of building a freediving community amongst the locals. We wanted to train Fijian divers who show enthusiasm and talent. In Fiji, rugby is religion. It is a way to fame and fortune for young man from villages, much like running is in Kenya. Other sports never make it to the public eye. Our progress in promoting the sport locally has been, to say it bluntly, glacial. Alas we are not dissuaded. As a circuitous way to the create interest in freediving, we ..read more

Living in Savusavu, or anywhere outdoorsy really, you develop a strong intuition about seasonal changes and weather subtleties. Sometimes you forget that visitors from faraway lands cannot be as tuned to the local conditions as you are. Our baseline conditions for freediving are as good as it gets: good visibility, warm water, absence of swell, waves, currents, and boat traffic. This was one of the reasons why we set up shop here in the first place. There always seems to be that day, when you just know the summer is over. Or maybe you feel like having only one or two showers a day as opposed t ..read more
