Instead of doing thousands of dives, I am focusing on quality, and I'm listening to my body more.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I want to do my hard dives really well, I want to see what my true potential in this sport really is. I want to grasp that.
I think the real reason for my improvement is because I had such a long period in the off-season just working as hard as I could on all my new dives; making sure I did lots of repetition to get them consistent.
I think being a competitive diver for years helps you focus and dedicate yourself to what's needed.
Every time you dive, you hope you'll see something new - some new species. Sometimes the ocean gives you a gift, sometimes it doesn't.
Once I dive in, I dive in all the way.
As long as I'm getting waves and having fun, the results tend to take care of themselves.
While I can always use a break from the gym, I like to swim and dive to keep myself feeling good.
I dive as much as I can.
I like to try to hit all of my dives.
The thing I love about diving is the flowing feeling. I like a sport where the whole point is to move as little as humanly possible so your air supply will last longer. That's my kind of sport. Where the amount of effort spent is absolutely minimal.
