Two days on the reefs of Agnes Water. One bloke who was mentally drafting his Marketplace listing for his speargun on Saturday afternoon \u2014 then shot a red throat emperor at 20m and became a fully committed spearo on the spot. This is the 1770 Beginner Retreat debrief, Mark Two, and it's everything the Noob Spearo ethos stands for: full froth, no ego, and a group of total strangers backing each other so hard it makes your abs sore from laughing. Shrek gathers the whole crew \u2014 students and instructors \u2014 on the last night for an unfiltered roundtable covering their biggest wins, worst moments, frothiest memories, and the universal lesson that keeps coming up no matter who you ask: slow down, persevere, and trust the process. If you've been thinking about doing a beginner retreat \u2014 or you just need a reminder of why you fell in love with spearfishing \u2014 strap in.
