I was looking to take my experience in the the water to the next level and Drift Freedivings, Oliver and Dangelo made that leap seamless. From the classroom to the pool and then the open blue, everything aspect was thorough and professional. Safety was always their #1 priority. You wont be disappointed choosing Drift Freediving!

Repeat Customer from across the state! I have not yet meet Oliver and his wife in person but have worked with both over phone and via email. What a GREAT shopping experience, this is my 3rd order in just a few months and WOW, just WOW. Oliver was texting me after closing hours to work out exactly what foot pockets would work best for me and he was right! The gear they carry is very high quality and from all over the world. Just a solid knowledgeable business. Thank you both! You have earned all my business!

Drift is the best!!! Joi and Oliver run an amazing shop with extremely well curated gear from all over the world. They have been incredibly helpful and hands-on with every single product I’ve ever purchased from them. They go above and behind with their customer service and are very knowledgeable about Freediving and Spearfishing. I’ll be a customer for life...

Drift Freediving is more than a store, if youre passionate about the sport, youll find there the right equipment and the right advise. I recently took my level 1 FII course, and it was a great and positive experience. Oliver ( the instructor ) is extremely knowledgeable, and took the time to correct each one of us every time, definetely coming back for my level 2. Special mention to his wife, she was so helpful when I was choosing my gear, and that made a huge difference when going through the class.

A+ service. Have taken FII level 1 and 2 with them and have had an amazing experience both times. I recently bought some fins fro them and messaged them via Instagram asking if they could assemble them for me since i had no way to do so. They then made it aware to me that i had made a mistake in the order and the blades didnt match my foot pockets, after making this aware they said they could swap the pockets or blade to fit what i needed. Would recommend them to anyone and they are definitely getting more of my business!

Had an incredible experience with the Drift Freediving family. From scheduling the course to the actual dives, everyone was extremely helpful, and customer service was great. The instruction was very individualized and I felt safe throughout the entire course. Was able to surpass anything I thought I could do. Looking forward to the day I can dive with Drift again !!!

I first met Oliver, and the Drift Family in early 2015 when I signed up for my first free dive course (Level 1 through F.I.I.). I can not say how happy I am for going through Drift, and Oliver now through my Level 2 freed dive course. His knowledge and compassion for teaching this sport goes is amazing. I have always felt comfortable with his teachings and knowing he is there watching you. Drift goes above and beyond to make sure you get the most from the experience and scheduling to work with you. His shop is top notch and knowledge the same for the products he offers. I highly recommend stopping in and saying hi and meeting some great people at a great company!Andy

Joi and Oliver are extremely helpful! I am a beginner, and the first day that I went in there I literally spent 2 hours trying on masks and debating fins. Joi answered all my questions, gave advice, and was also just a lovely person. They were really responsive over email too as I asked even more questions. They easily did a mask exchange for me on a second visit, and a return as well. This is a small business that treats you like friends. They didnt have wetsuits in my size (XS), and they only had one fin blade option for me (all around fiberglass), but they had everything else. Ill definitely be back. Also the dog, Jupiter is adorable.

I LOVE THIS PLACE!I have been a shopper and a class-taker at this place since it opened. Not only is the shop fantastic, but as an FII Freediving learning center its a one-stop facility (they even have their own boat!), and Oliver and Joi are always helpful. Id give 6 stars if I could.

I found Oliver and his Drift team when I first got hooked on freediving. Oliver was always responsive when I called or texted and as a result I completed my L1 and L2 with him - couldnt be happier!! In my experience Oliver and the Drift team create a comfortable no pressure learning experience that focuses on truly understanding the sport of Freediving....and how to enjoy it safely. I cant wait for my son to turn 12 for the junior course;). His new shop takes it to the next level as well. Thanks again guys!

I have been diving with Oliver and Joi for over a year now and had no previous ocean experience beforehand. They are amazing people and awesome instructors, and they have an awesome shop/classroom to boot! They are passionate about freediving and it shows, they emphasize safety and technique, not just numbers, and let you progress at your own pace. They make you feel like family from the start, and that is what freediving is all about!

I was treated like family at this shop. The owners are extremely humble and willing to work with you with whatever you need. They are very knowledgeable and wont just try to sell you on the top brands but in fact encourage you to try on and try out as many different kinds and types of whatever your looking for. I went to get a custom wetsuit and one of the owners named Joi help to size me up and get the best measurements for the best fit for me. She even kept the shop open after hours for me to be sure we got it exactly right. Family owned and operated and they will treat you the same if you give them the opportunity. They are Level 3 certified and offer many clases to get you where you want to be. They even do one on one sessions if your not good with groups or just want to get another opinion on a specific technique. Extremely recommend this shop for anyone and everyone that likes to do any kind of freediving or spearfishing. Dont just take my word for it.....go check them out for yourselves.

Great store! Ive gone out on the dive trips with Oliver and Joi the owners and they are always a great time. I recently took my level 2 course with Oliver and cant say enough about him as an instructor. The course was excellent and the small class sizes that he guaruntees ensures you get personal instruction. The shop also has everything you could need. I just bought some Dive R blades and Joi was a huge help putting blades in my pockets. Awesome customer service and owners!

Review №36

I took the FII level 1 freediving course and learned A LOT. I specifically went to class to improve my breath-holds. Before class I could hold my breath for 2 minutes. With one day of instruction from Oliver, I can now hold my breath for over 4, no exaggeration. The course is very straightforward, and Oliver is a cool guy who knows his stuff. I highly recommend the class if you want to improve your freediving or spearfishing skills.

I met Oliver at the Blue Wild convention in Florida and what a wealth of knowledge. Hes not youre ordinary shop owner, but an expert in all forms of tankless diving, From: deep Freediving instruction (Fii Level 2 instructor), to wreck Freediving, even in Spearfishing. As for gear, hell really take the time to set ya up right. As the only distributer in the US of Alchemy fins (at least when I bought them, there may be other distributors now) he took his time to explain how and why they are one of the most superior fins on the market...yet, even with his knowledge, I felt a bit uneasy buying unseen (not able to feel the stiffness) living in California. He assured me hed put me in the right gear and I would not be displeased. Reluctantly, I bought a pair I felt would be right and they ended up being a bit too stiff. Without question or hassle, Oliver worked with me to exchange them and get me into the pair I needed. You just dont find customer service like that any more. I give him and their shop a solid 5 star rating and have been sending my friends and students his way ever since. Thanks again Drift for all your help and support and wish you the best in business.Sincerely,Nathan LucasApnea Addicts Freediving
