New Year, New Goals!

Here we go again!! After putting our heads together and brainstorming on new goals and challenges for the dive team to tackle in 2013 it’s time to get the ball rolling. Baring in mind that one of our organization’s main values is ‘innovation’ that is; striving to develop new activities while continuously improving our procedures, together we have come up with numerous ideas both for recreational diving as well as for competition diving events to be held in 2013. This year we are facing our events with a BIGGER and BETTER approach as well as a ‘Can Do’ attitude and wow have we got plenty in store for you!

 
We have come a long way but we are always striving for more. On the 4th of March 2012, the World Record Diving team set the Guinness World Record for the Longest Cold Open Water Scuba Dive of 12 hours and 34 minutes. We are immensely satisfied with the result of this attempt however we believe that ‘you are only as good as your last game’ and that the principle is competing against yourself - it's about self-improvement, about being better than you were the day before. Thus, it is our goal this year to push forward, improve our abilities and raise the benchmark further for our competitors. 
 
And so, World Record Diving Malta is proud to announce that we are setting out to break our own record for the Longest Cold Open Water Scuba Dive, aiming at a 15 hour duration dive which will take place on Saturday the 9th of March 2013 at Starfish Diving School, Marina Hotel- Corinthia Beach Resort in St.George’s Bay, Malta.
Preparations are already well underway and the team is immensely excited to unveil who our key sponsors for 2013 will be!!! Stay tuned to find out more …

Here's what we've been up to!

It has been a busy couple of weeks over the Christmas period for everyone at World Record Diving Malta. Nonetheless, this has not stopped our divers from finding the time to get wet and be creative in the water. Members from our team have taken part in various Santa dives and also joined divers from other clubs to help decorate an underwater Christmas tree in aid of the national charity L-Istrina.


 
 
World Record Diving Malta started the New Year by hosting a formal ceremony in order to present certificates and medals to our team as well as to sponsoring companies for their support shown during last year's record achievement for the Longest Cold Open Water Sea Dive of 12 hours and 34 minutes held on the 4th of March 2012 at Starfish Diving School, Marina Hotel- Corinthia Beach Resort, Malta.
 




 

The team has also been busy putting pen to paper and coming up with new thrilling ideas for 2013 - keep an eye open on our blog to hear about our upcoming Treasure Island events as well as for our new World Record attempts in the not so distanct future...  2013 is definately going to be an exciting year for all at World Record Diving Malta!!
