JAPAN TEAM SELECTION for RED SEA DIVE OFF '99 　 May 30th, 1999, JAPAN TEAM SELECTION for RED SEA DIVE OFF '99 was held in Tokai University Shonan Campus pool, chief organizer was Katsusaburo Kondo, lecturer of TOKAI University. The main policy was " Let's go to Egypt, Never go to Edge ! ". Our definition of athletic free- diving is " It is not a sport to break the limit, it is the sport to find out their own limit and return safely". In another word "Reckless courage worth nothing!". The security index is " when the competitor breath out, he has to stops trial". As a result, although one black out and one samba happened in static apnea, but both of them recovered quickly, two Japanese record were made, and everybody was so happy to join this selection! We appreciate to Mr. Kondo, Dr. Nakamura, life savers in Tokai University, and the other voluntary staffs. 　 RESULT After the qualification of Constant weight diving, the persons below were selected for the Japan Team member.
