The Vancouver Apneist Club is hosting occasional pool training/practice sessions on Wednesday evenings at the UBC Aquatic Centre. We are renting two lanes of the pool for freedive training and skills development. New and prospective freedivers are welcome to come out but please contact us first.
Our pool time is from 8\:00pm to 9\:30pm but please show up at least a half hour earlier for briefing\, stretching and gearing up.
We have rented this pool time so just tell them you're with the freediving group. We're charging a $5 drop-in fee to cover the rental cost.
See you in the pool!

Visibility is great and the Lingcod are spawning. This is the day after the pool competition\, so it's a great time to either celebrate your achievement or get in some more training to prepare for the next event. The tentative plan is to go to Porteau Cove which usually has lots of Lingcod eggs to look at. If the weathers not good for Porteau then other options are Ansell or Whytecliff or...

Visibility is great and the Lingcod are spawning. The tentative plan for this dive is to do a \\"Whytecliff Express\\" drift dive. We'll meet at Whytecliff and then walk over to the next bay to catch the tide. If the weathers not good for this then we could try Ansell or Porteau...
The tide on Sunday is up and down\, hence the drift dive. Lets plan to meet up at 10am. Don't hesitate to get touch via the yahoo group to help organize car pools.
