Underwater hunting as a sport

Category: Underwater sports




I think every sportsman, coming to the competition at any level hoped to occupy the highest possible place. As regards the international competitions, then on the successful performance of counting all underwater community of the country, advocated by the athlete. Each time we hope for success, and every time we hear the same thing:

- Arrived late; - No time to explore the waters; - I do not have the money; - Poor organization; - Did you see the fish, but not shot, or shot, but it was nezachetnoy, etc.

And no one speaks about one of the main components of success. On to what physical form was underwater hunter, coming to the competition if he would do to them? Here I would argue, saying: - So it is multiple winner of various competitions!

Experience shows, this is absolutely not enough. Even in order to theoretically claim a high place in European Championships and the World. No doubt many will agree that in our case there are four key components of success.

This:

  • General and special physical training;
  • Experience;
  • Knowledge of the area;
  • The quality of equipment.

    Unfortunately, the first, and from my point of view, the most important aspect of our athletes are paying the least attention. What and affects the results.

    Here are a few interesting examples.

    Greece, 2008. UEFA Champions League. All the big fish were taken us deeper 43-meters. What finally allowed us to take third place. You can not accidentally be at such a depth, to find and take the fish. This was preceded by many months of hard training.

    Venezuela, 2008. World Championship. Drove up to one of his earlier "sacrificed" on the exploration area point. Throw buoy. Wear a mask, and I see a hunter, carrying on all cylinders to me the place had been marked with the clear intention to go there to dive. Obkladyvayut to select mat, grab a gun and jumped into the water. Flow is strong, rowed him to his buoy. I know that under the eaves in the hole with a bunch of hemulonov lives Competitive Grouper. Depth in this place on 23-24 meters. Dive without training almost simultaneously. Before my face sweeping glimpses fins HHone. I notice at the bottom of the river dragging my removable cargo. We are sailing on the abandoned trail. I begin to feel the lack of oxygen. And the opponent pushes forward like a dolphin. In the distance looms a cornice with a hole. I see her hiding in the fish. Hunter begins to emerge ahead. And I too. I would have fifteen seconds, and I would have looked there, and probably used this chance.

    Pop up. With the nearest boat waving their hands, crying. I understand that I am far away from his warning buoy in eighty meters, and within sight of one of the judges' boat. Can be fined. I hasten to correct the situation.

    Making the second run to "their" hole, past the boat of his more successful rival. Recognize him Janis Siderisa, he smiling at me, shows "OK", and pretty leaves. (Janis Sideris, a Greek, a Champions League winner 2008, the next World championship silver medalist 2008). I understand that the cherished Grouper goes along with it. But all the same dive in the same place. Cargo is not holding buoy - a very strong current. To burrows sail to the limit, it Namuche and something flashes. It would lie a little, wait, but not enough supply air. A few times went to the target. The result is the same. In the fight over the stock does not remain in force correspondently. Although at this depth, with no current time dive with maturation in my area three minutes consistently. It would seem bad, but it is not enough.

    Jump in the boat, I feel like a squeezed lemon, but plunged a total of five times and struggled a little with the passage. Nevertheless, I give the command to his skipper to move in the future, the deepest waters edge, because I thought the hunt at the depth of his skates.

    Cape. The strong current. Depth of about forty meters. Carefully preparing to dive. Dive. Visibility is bad - ten to twelve meters. Falls directly on a pack lutsianov (set off with two kilograms). They are many. Maybe more than a hundred. Fish slowly and majestically parts before me. Many of them - at a distance of sighting shots. Do not hurry. Inspect the herd. I noticed in the distance a huge fish. If the bulk of fish in this pack weighs three pounds, this handsome at least twice. From this moment I see only him. Throw removable cargo from buoys (gross error). Sneaking to the fish. After that, everything happened like in a bad film. So, as I approached her, exactly the same, she sailed away from me, not allowing me to a distance of 100 per cent destruction. And very much like to make just such a shot. All too beautiful and the weight would be the trophy.

    I felt that had clearly "outlasted", and all the fish did not let being on the boundary of effective shots. I realized that the leader shall not be given, and the need to shoot anything. But it turned out that the flock is too out of reach. Surely it is pertinent to recall the saying "Greed has destroyed trendy chap. Pop up. I try to save the air, stocks of which is long gone. I draw your attention to the fact that there is no moving up. Too much negative buoyancy, because it was shipped to hunt up to 25-meters. I remember that it was necessary to lose weight is not separately removable, and the entire weight belt, buckled to it, as I did in Greece. Then it would be pulled out for tench.

    Ply fins, trying to strengthen the will to keep fleeting consciousness. His hand on a weight belt buckle, ready at any moment to reset it. I flew to the surface, submarine tracking some fifty meters from me. Turn away, to the judge and the skipper had not noticed me shaking, because it is fraught with disqualification. But my fears were groundless. They calmly munching sandwiches and drinking coffee, not paying me any attention. I looked at the computer: the depth of 37 meters, time 2 min. 25 sec.

    That day I shot one student record fish, vesivshuyu more than 4 kilograms. On the second day of competition during the three hours of hunting from designated four (me and another ten members disqualified for an hour) I shot seven fish, of which three were valid, and eventually took the 24-th place of the nearly 70-and participants.

    On the second day, hunting for a bank with a depth of about 25 meters and over, I once again caught myself thinking about his lack of physical preparedness.

    Spearfishing - this is a serious and dangerous sport. Accordingly, the training process in preparation for a competition should be designed. It depends on the result of competition, and your health.

    Remember, if you train yourself. I think the answer will be negative. Maybe you know these people, most likely the answer will be the same. So on what result can be expected in such an approach to the training process? By the way, hunting in the river can not be regarded as training for performance at sea competitions, as while diving in the river are quite different principles. You could even say that the principles of the deep sea hunting as far from the Black Sea, like the one in turn on a river.

    Summing up, I want to see that after all the main components of success are in our hands. Start with their physical readiness, save up invaluable experience and improve equipment. Enjoy physical activities, the process of hunting and communicating with friends. And. Do not reinvent the "bicycle". Everything has been thought out before us. Selected priority areas in its development, refer to competent specialists. This saves you time and health.
