Surviving Winter Freediving

There are ways to make winter freediving a bit more enjoyable. In this video I'm testing out using 7mm winter gloves instead of my old 5mm all-season gloves. I'm also adding a layer by having a 3mm singlet under the wetsuit. This dive is done in Western Norway during the winter. Temperatures are about 3-4 degrees celcius in the surface and -3 in the air. My survival tactics: 1. Upgrade to 3-finger thicker gloves. 2. Add that underlayer, a 3mm singlet helps! 3. Put the arms on the outside of your gloves to lock out water. 4. Put your legs on the outside of your boots to lock out water. 5. Bring a towel to stand on, this way you don't start by freezing on your feet. 6. Bring hot water for the suit (guess that's a given all year round). 7. Organize all your gear BEFORE starting changing into it. 8. Start by putting on the pants, that allows you to keep a warm sweather and hat on as long as possible. 9. Don't push your limits. When you get cold, get out of the water. Safety first! All my gear is from my local diving store, Frivannsliv (www.frivannsliv.no). They know what works in the arctic areas.
