PADI
Dry Suit Diver Specialty |
Dry suits let
you dive more challenging dive sites, and extend your dive season. When
you have the right cold
water scuba diving attire, you can stand up to the elements and take
advantage of the generally better visibility offered by winter
months—especially at inland dive sites such as quarries, lakes,
sinkholes and caves etc. As a dry suit diver, you’re equipped to scuba
dive some of the world’s incredible dive sites in the world’s cooler
regions that are best enjoyed in a dry
suit even in their warmer months.
The PADI Dry Suit Diver course
includes one confined water session and two open water certification dives. The
course will cover a variety of areas including:
|
-
Procedures and techniques for drysuit diving
-
Proper Ascent and Descent
-
Buoyancy control
for drysuit diving
-
Potential hazards and emergency procedures
-
Drysuit and
undergarment selection
-
Pre and post dive drysuit
care
-
Routine minor drysuit maintenance
