WINNER – Kenzo Kiren!

By admin on March 15, 2011 in Best Dive Job in the World

Our team here at Blue Season Bali would like to congratulate Kenzo Kiren on winning The Best Dive Job in the World 2011. Kenzo fought his way through the past several months to emerge as this year’s winner despite fierce competition from some spectacular contestants. Like many of our entrants, his efforts have been both entertaining and candid, revealing a personality we are happy to welcome into our team.

Well, it’s about 6pm in Vancouver and I suspect there will be some festivities in town tonight. Kenzo owes a big thank-you, and likely a round of beers, to all the people who have supported his entry into the contest. If there is one thing that has emerged over the past two weeks, it is that all of our finalists have immense support from their friends and family. At the end of the day, what more could a person want? The love and support shown throughout the program has been a truly human experience and I am personally grateful for the opportunity to have been involved with it.

To all of our finalists, I cannot extend our thanks enough for making this contest such a huge success. I would suggest that you come away from this experience with a defined sense of accomplishment and a renewed valuation of your friends and family. The purpose of this contest, in my own mind, has changed over the past few weeks and I take more away from the fact that we have identified so many enthusiastic and outstanding individuals. Your friends and family already knew it, and we are now glad to have met you all.

You will succeed in your diving goals because you have what it takes. I train instructors for a living and if every one of them had your enthusiasm and personality, this would be an even more fantastic industry. For all of you who have entered the program, you should take pride in the fact that you have so many great people in your life willing to wake up in the middle of the night, miss exams, etc. to show their support for you. There is no prize bigger in life than the respect and support of those around you, and for that, you are all truly remarkable people.

I have said it already, but we will be launching a bigger, meatier, and more bad ass contest in a just a couple of months. You will all receive advance notification of the details of the contest and tips to win. Keep rocking and remember, all finalists are invited to come to Bali and go diving on us. Finally, I will extend one last huge, massive, COLOSSAL THANK-YOU to each and every one of you. You are all incredible people.

Much love,

Tom West
