Lol - when I glanced at the thread title "Shameless Cave Diving Group..." I genuinely assumed it was another Team Chaos thread

OK, I might be interested BUT it depends on the content. Does the wording of the manual actually explain the skills rather than telling you only what you will need to know?

I have no intention of going cave diving as there are no caves around here but would be interested in reading about the skills if they are explained.

The manual covers the core of the CDG training program, so cover a fair bit, it is also from a CDG point of view to be used in conjunction with the CDG mentoring system. What it is not is a coffee table type book

Although it also covers (as I may have mentioned ):

Chapters
*Chapter 1 The Cave Diving Group
*Chapter 2 Dive planning
*Chapter 3 Equipment and configuration
*Chapter 4 Core skills
*Chapter 5 Exploring and recording sumps
*Chapter 6 Specialist skills and equipment
*Chapter 7 Awareness of mixed gases
*Chapter 8 Rebreathers
*Chapter 9 Dry caving and the cave diver
*Chapter 10 Cave diving outside the UK
*Appendix 1: CDG Documentation
*Appendix 2: Accident analysis
*Appendix 3: Further reading
*Appendix 4: Emergency contacts
