BLUE: Freediving the California's Video and DVD-r**

This video is destined to become a classic for California freediving. Shot entirely by freedivers for freedivers, this adventure takes you from the cold rugged north— where abalone and ling cod abound—to the warm offshore waters of Mexico.

You'll see these conservation-minded divers hunt and enjoy abalone, ling cod, rockfish, white seabass and yellowtail. Along the journey you'll see some great natural history shots of sharks, white seabass and giant black seabass.

This first video music composition by composer/diver David Laird compliments the beauty and action of the underwater world off California. One of the best music tracks I've heard.

Doug Jones does a magnificent job in editing the exciting sequences of the hunt for trophy fish and game.

Meet David and Doug as they treat you to an hour of non-stop hunting action.
