“We would like to thank all athletes for participating and their outstanding performances,” Jeffrey Habets, one of the competition organizers, told us. “Also, we would like to thank all volunteers and our sponsors, including Molchanovs. Without their support, we would not have been able to host this event in the way we did.”


The organizers look forward to arranging the next edition of the Feel Free Freediving International Pool Competition in 2025 in a larger venue and possibly with world-record status. Habets told us, “We love to create more awareness of our beautiful sport to the public and to make the sport of freediving bigger in the Netherlands, but also worldwide.”
