In four weeks, on September 20, 2021, in Limassol, Cyprus, the 27th AIDA World Championship will commence.
Thanks to your support and to the attention you gave to our reporting of the Belgrade Championship and Vertical Blue 2021, we are planning to report on every day of the AIDA World Championship. Additionally, for an even deeper immersion into the subject of freediving competitions, every week before the Championship, we will tell you a story that took place in Cyprus when the history of freediving had just begun.
Pulley systems are still quite a new concept in freediving circles, but they are becoming more known as an essential addition to a freediving buoy/float setup, especially as freedivers begin to dive deeper. But first, what exactly is a pulley system?
It is the first world competition in freediving that will take place since the COVID pandemic began. Since 2019, there have been no world championships, neither in depth nor in the pool. In many countries, competitions are still forbidden, or can be held only with a limited number of participants. That is why this championship is so special.
