JF: Ålesund, Norway; In January 2011 I decided to compete in the Swedish Pool Freediving Championship without having sat foot in a pool for years.
I never really liked water. Especially to put my head under it. Never been comfortable doing it. But I do like holding my breath.
So it was time to grow up and head down there and see where it would take me.

With the results in that competition (Silver Medal in Static with 6.31 min and a 5th place overall), and the results in my second competition the Finnish Pool Freediving Championship (Bronz medal in Dynamic No Fins with 134 meters and 5th place overall), I qualified for the upcoming Indoor Freediving World Championship in Lignano, Italy in October 2011.

Here you will be able to follow my preparation for that big event. If you´d like. I won´t twist your arm..JF
