Re: in the Cpto of the world pescasub discriminates against women Sardinia

Ramon, my Spearfishing partners are World Class freedivers. They train every single day at the highest level. They don't drink, smoke, they do Yoga at the highest levels, they train depth Freediving several times per week. They understand their limits, capacity, mental situation, just like all of the champion Freedivers who compete at the World level. But if you watch a World Cup Freediving competition, you will see the best divers in the world Black Out, and sometimes have horrible, debilitating, deep, Black outs. Here is an example. You have finally found a fish! It's in a cave at 180'.. You shoot it, and spend a few seconds untangling the line from the rocks. On your way up at 60' you have a Loss of Motor Control.. but who sees this? Your buddy who is in the water who has swam down to 75' to meet you and watch you carefully as you ascend? Nope.. because you are not allowed to have another person in the water.. right? Now here's another question for you. You finally find a fish. It's a Grouper. 15kgs. Tournament winning fish.. You shoot it at 180' and it gets tangled up. You need to make 3 subsequent dives to free it. What Freediving competition allows a Freediver to make 3-4 dives to 180' in one day let alone within an hour or two? With no spotter... It is time to change the Machoman Mentality which you define above. Training. Yes. Purposefully choosing places where the diving will be extremely deep and dangerous and not allowing proper safety. No.
