Introduction to Cave Diving Course

Passing through a cavern, until you reach the point where daylight cannot penetrate and you have utter darkness may seem scary to some, but to others it is yet another world to explore. You, with your lamp, guideline and extensive amount of training can enter this world. Obviously because of the greater risks involved in this specialised form of diving, all cave diver training starts in Open water first.

Peter and Joakim started their Introduction to Cave Diving in Open Water Course yesterday, which will teach them the basic principles of cave diving.

The course began with them rigging equipment to make sure everything fits properly, they have all the essentials easily accessible, and they’re not taking anything that’s not necessary!

Then Jason took them for some practice doing line drills much to Alan’s amusement. It may look easy but Peter and Joakim will tell you it certainly takes some practice! Once they’d got the hang of this they went on to learn how to lay guidelines with the reels.

Fran was ecstatic yesterday, she is currently doing her Tec 50 course along with 4 other divers and she found out that morning she was finally get to see the Stubborn! You couldn’t, not be excited for her! Meanwhile Howard Payne’s group went off to explore the Polynesian . . .
