Ariston Ignatius Inot
Freediver - NR Holder
Ariston Ignatius Inot left behind his previous professional career to follow a new calling—as a deep freediver. Born and raised in the Philippines, a country blessed with crystal-clear waters, he developed a strong connection to the ocean early in life, cultivating a passion for swimming and aquatic activities from a young age.
At 25, Ariston began his freediving journey. Under the mentorship of Pacific Blue Freediving, he made rapid progress. Within just two years of dedicated training, he competed for the first time and set a National Record in the No Fins (CNF) discipline, reaching an impressive depth of 56 meters.
Ambitious and deeply committed, Ariston now aims to join the elite group of Filipino freedivers who have reached 100 meters. He continues to train rigorously alongside the country's deepest athletes and fellow national record holders, pushing his limits with each dive.
