The Constant Ballast event was held off a barge anchored just offshore from Lions Bay. Competitors were bused from the accomodations at UBC to the Lions Bay Marina.
In order to maximize the tide windows, there were two competition lines, with one line active at a time. The competition zone processed process two competitors every ten minutes. |

Safety Team
Vancouver’s safety scuba divers are world-class and very experienced. Our core deep safety team has been working CAFA competitions since its very beginning in 2000. Some of our divers have helped out in over eight local competitions, providing safety and support in Vancouver’s challenging conditions.
In addition to local support, we also had several more divers from all over North America and the UK. |
Underwater Video
Partnerships with Amphibico, Nuytco and Ocean Technology Systems provided an unprecedented opportunity for underwater imaging at these World Championships. These companies will provide world-class video equipment, lighting, and underwater communications, including live video on the barge. |
