Today was my first day of the FREEDIVINGWORLD COMPETITION here in Sharm… I had announced 84m in FIM, a dive deeper of a small meter than my previous NR from last september. I am feeling a bit overtrained for few weeks…. So my mind is not so much on the freediving mode and mood these days… I prepared my material this morning without proper concentration, like if i was going for a snorkeling boat trip… Not analyzing than today, compare to my last sunny training 2 days ago, was windy and cloudy… And that today the warm-up lines were too far from the athlete platform to lay down on it between each warmup dive… So my 2mm suit was not enough… Official top is in 5 mn…. I am freezing… dont wanna dive… try mentally to get trough these negative body and mind feelings... without success… my daily coach Miguel bring me to the line with a nice smile… last breathes… official top in one minute…. I am shivering… What am I f**** doing here? What is this stupid sport? All seems wrong in my head… Official top… I have to do the job… first pulls… oupsssss current too… not good… my alarm rings for the first mouth fill at 20m… cold and bad sensations…try to imagine Miguel smiling up there to warm me up… not feeling warmer… my body is tense like a frozen lobster… few pulls more… feeling worse… I decide to turn (and to stay fresh for tmr…). Was the best choice to do even if I am a bit disappointed… All these pre-compdive stress for nothing... I will try again tmr with my warmer Elios 3mm… Added 1meter more to make it a bit challenging… I never learn from my mistakes… What can I do… My main issue tomorrow is gonna be my ears equalization, as I did not arrive to achieve the regularity I wished on this crucial topic this year… lets see…. inchallalllalllaaaa… lets dance with the red sea barracuda tomorrow…
