• Mask, fins and snorkel – Preferably low volume mask and long blade fins.
• Wetsuit – 3mm wetsuit suit is required for pool and 5-7mm suit for open water sessions. A good freediving suit with attached hood is recommended but you can get away with surf/scuba wetsuits. If your hood is not attached please bring a separate one.
• Weights and weight belt - Best choice is a rubber weight belt with an assortment of smaller weights to adjust for proper buoyancy.
• Depth and/or timing device – A waterproof watch at the very least, better yet a freediving computer is perfect.
