Vertical Blue 2015 - Highlights from Day 4-6

Strong performance continued and 8 National Records were set throughout day 4-6. Although sky wasn't always crystal clear, dive conditions were good to make it for another great time at Deans Blue Hole in the Bahamas. Althought the winners of this year's comp had been already announced, the OceanicAllStars crew that captured all the underwater action going on has released "Act 2" of the 9 day competition so far. View the highlights below and look forward to the final chapter!
