About this episode

The episode covers the Bali crew's experience completing their freediving instructor course and their spearfishing adventures.

Part two of the Bali crew adventure. Matty, Liv, Noffs, Rhys (No Viz) and Chiz push through flu, blood noses and an LMC scare to finish their freediving instructors course with Adam Sellars and The Pressure Project — every one of them nailing their 32m depth, static and dynamic requirements. Then they head up the coast to spear the rumpongs, Bali's handmade floating FADs, with the experienced local guides at Spearo Co: first-ever dolphin fish, triple tail everywhere, and Matty sprinting across the open ocean after a jammed roller gun. Liv's one-shot redemption dynamic after four failed attempts is the moment of the episode. If you're curious about a freediving instructors course or spearfishing Bali on a budget, this one's for you.
