Become a 30m Freediver!
As a Molchanovs Wave 2 Advanced Freediver you will extend your limits further in all disciplines (up to a depth of -30m), become more proficient in no fin techniques, and learn about the monofin technique which is the fastest and most powerful way to navigate the underwater world.
You will learn the history of freediving, how it all started, where, why and how we got where we are now. You will dive deeper into the physics of freediving, how it affects your body, learn about Dalton’s law and Henry’s law, and their relation to safe freediving.
You will go into detail about depth and distance dives and understand the main differences and adaptations of our bodies. You will continue your breathing education and improve the Frenzel equalization maneuver with specialized drills, tips and guidance.
As you progress with your technique skillset and performance, you will also work further on mental training, introducing mindfulness techniques tailored to different contexts of free diving. You will also be introduced to injuries related to freediving in the middle ear, inner ear, sinuses, and lungs and subsequently learn how to prevent and treat them. Safety is also taught and practiced at a higher level with details on blackouts, decompression illness, learning how to avoid them and mastering advanced rescue techniques.
