free diver

Forty years ago flippers/fins and snorkels had not arrived at Kapinga. I followed Kalio where he was spear fishing on the outside of the reef.

Visibility about 60 meters, water temperature about 30 degrees. The spear gun was exceptionally long – possibly to get within range of the tiny fish.  Remember, no flippers and no snorkel were being used, just simple goggles.

The divers probably did not understand how to equalize ear pressure either.

The small fish are given a quick bite to paralyze them.

It was a rare opportunity to document this style of free diving.

Kalio will soon be surprised when he see’s these pictures for the first time after all these years.

四十年前鴨腳板或飛翅和廢氣管未到達Kapinga。 我跟隨了在他是在礁石的外部的矛漁的礁石的Kalio。 可見性大约60米,水温大约30度。 矛式枪可能格外是長在微小的魚之內的范围得到。 記住,沒有鴨腳板和沒有廢氣管使用,簡單的风镜。 潛水者大概不瞭解如何調平耳朵壓力。 給小魚痲痺他們的快的叮咬。 它是一個罕見的機會提供自由潜水這樣式。 Kalio很快將驚奇,當他see’ s第一次這些圖片在所有這些歲月以后。
