Tanya's new record
Tanya Streeter has just broken another record. This waswas in variable ballast. THatmeans you canride a sled down, but you need to swim, or pull, yourself back up. This is harder than no limits because you can't just ride alift bag back to the surface.

She also has a very tight knit team of safety divers. Unlike when Audrey died, and onl;y had a diver on AIR at 300' and one on mix at 560', Tanya has divers stationed every 30' along the way. Amny of the deeper supoprt divers wear "twinspiration" rebreathers. Tanya posted a series of updates on her training dives on the Deeper Blue forums.

She is now contemplating a stab at the hardest catagory of all- unassisted constant ballast. THat means you dive down, and swim back up, on your own without the use of sled, line or even fins. The men's record in this sits at 200'!
