Last one for the year! 🀿 On the morning of the 15th of August, 36 spearos headed out for the Maties Open. Good visibility but cold waters made diving quite difficult and the fish scarce 🐟 The Maties open is the only comp of the Maties spearfishing calendar that allows for the usage of boats, making this competition even more exiting. We had 8 boats in total competing, with 21 divers weighing in fish. Thank you for everyone who made this competition one for the history books, and to Apnea Addicts and Freedivers International for the awesome prizes. πŸ‘Œ

Standings:
1) Paul Bergoff (winning the competition 2 times in a row)
2) Julian Hall
3) Chris Swart
4) Daniel Duane (also the winning Matie)
5) JP Marias
