Polish freediver Mateusz Malina this past weekend set a new world record in the Dynamic Without Fins (DNF) discipline.
Malina swam 250m/820ft at the Polish Freediving Pool Championships, held from April 30th to May 2nd at the MOSiR swimming pool complex in Debica. He beat his own record of 244m/800ft set in 2016.
According to a Facebook post, Malina said:
“It was the toughest dive in my life, the pool was perfect but my preparations on the previous days were not. I’m extremely happy and satisfied from the outcome, I gave 100% of myself in that dive and I’m still exhausted 2 days later. However, I think I can move it further in future.”
The competition was held under AIDA rules.
