A dry suit seals you off from the outside water. In the PADI Dry Suit Diver Specialty course, you’ll learn how to use a dry suit. And that keeps you warm!
Prior to class:
• Purchase class materials and DVD at Scuba Systems
• Complete reading and Knowledge Reviews
• Watch DVD
At your classroom/pool session:
• You will review the Knowledge Reviews
• You will learn how to don and doff your drysuit, and about drysuit maintenance and storage
• We will be in the pool practicing the drysuit skills that you saw in the DVD, such as drysuit buoyancy control skills
• You will also have the opportunity to reserve your drysuit for your training dives
At your open water session:
• You will complete two Drysuit Dives
If you are have taken the class and pool portion of the PADI Open Water Diver class, you can take the Drysuit Diver classroom/pool session and then complete your Advanced Open Water or Open Water Dives in a drysuit. That way you are toasty warm. Plus, you can do one more drysuit dive and you will then be certified as BOTH an Open Water Diver (or AOW) AND Dry Suit Diver in one weekend.
Must be a PADI Open Water Diver or Junior Open Water Diver (or hold a qualifying certification from another training organization) and at least 10 years old.
DUI DOG Days are June 12 & 13, 2010 at Haigh Quarry. If you are doing your Drysuit Training on June 12th, or are already a certified Drysuit diver at that time, you can participate in this fun event! You will have the opportunity to try different models of DUI Drysuits, meet other DUI Owners, and eat lunch. Tickets are available at Scuba Systems.
This specialty counts towards becoming a Master Scuba Diver. Master Scuba Diver is the highest non-professional rating a diver can achieve.
