Breathless underwater: Baden woman dives 63 meters
The 25-year-old Christin Gerstorfer from Baden (Lower Austria) dived deeper than any Austrian before at the CMAS World Cup Depth 2024 in the Philippines and set four new national records with her 63-meter deep dive! The video of the competition proves it: The extreme sport is not for the faint-hearted.
"Freediving has taught me a lot about myself and my personal mental strength. It also showed me what my body is capable of and gave me a more conscious body awareness. Underwater, we have to be able to rely on ourselves 100 percent, because we are constantly balancing on the edge," says freediver Christin Gerstorfer. At the age of twelve, she dived 15 meters into the depths. She started practising this dangerous extreme sport professionally at 16 and has been taking part in competitions since 2022 - and quite successfully too.
