Heroes of the Deep 2024-world record holder in freediving Andrey Matveenko and his difficult path to records-nomination In one breath

22 Jan 2024

Andrey Matveenko is a well-known person in narrow freediving circles, who has long been firmly established as a hardworking and purposeful person. Freediving instructor, world and Russian champion in August 2023, at the CMAS Rules World Deep Diving Championships in Honduras, he became the absolute record holder in competitive deep freediving, successfully diving 134 meters in a monolayer in 3 minutes and 59 seconds. Andrey's record managed to hold on to the top line of the rating for only 5 minutes, immediately after Alexey Molchanov dived... Nevertheless, Andrey Matveenko has managed to do something that few people in the world can do and no one else in Russia (except Molchanov, of course), and we believe that this is just the beginning of an interesting and powerful rivalry, which we will be happy to watch.
From the stage of the Moscow Dive Show 2024, Andrey Matveenko will talk about how he managed to achieve such outstanding results, training mostly only in the Black Sea (Andrey from Gelendzhik) and what difficulties he had to face along the way (spoiler: there were a lot of them!). And we, for our part, are very happy to present the athlete with a well-deserved award!

The show "Heroes of the Deep" starts at 17: 00 on Saturday, February 10, 2024 on the stage of Gostiny Dvor in Moscow. Any guest of the Moscow Dive Show 2024 can become a spectator of the show for free, just buy an entrance ticket to the exhibition.
