LEARN TO SCUBA DIVE - STOKE ON TRENT

The Course

Good buoyancy control is an essential skill for all divers to master, allowing you to conserve air and energy as you swim more efficiently. The PADI Peak Performance Buoyancy Specialty concentrates on diagnosing and addressing some of the more common buoyancy problems.

Your PADI Instructor will help you perfect proper weighting & distribution, efficient kicking & finning techniques and neutral buoyancy.

You will see the benefit of good buoyancy control in improved air consumption and greater control in the water. Protect both the aquatic environment and your dive equipment as you hover motionless over the coral reef whilst taking that perfect photo.

Course Content

The course consists of a knowledge development session and 2 open water dives which will cover:

• Peak Performance Buoyancy fundamentals
• Use of PADI’s ‘Basic Weighting Guidelines’

Knowledge Development
