Question Kiss training, Who is best in UK??

Hi,

I've seen a Sports KISS advertised by a local diver on here. If I were to buy this can anyone recomend a good RB trainer? I would go with Andy Hayhurst but he is no longer working, (and not answering his phone - ANDY??)

Not too fussed about how far I travel. Just interested in a good recomendation to a good instructor in the UK.

Thanks,

Dave C

Give Dave Thompson (dave.thomp@virgin.net), Martin Robson (info@eau2.com) or Steve Copeland (steve@copeland.net) a call - any one of those guys would be an excellent choice!

I'd suggest speaking with Zak (Brighton based I think).

Might be worth dropping Spike a PM too as I think he's doing the course with Zak.

AFAIK, Zak isn't a KISS instructor. Shame really as he probably knows more about the unit than anyone else in the UK...

I heard rumours that this situ is about to be rectified, of course I might have misunderstood.

I wouldn't want to comment. I'm sure he'll be a long at some point to put the record straight one way or the other...

Just done my KISS course with Dave Cooper. I can recommend him as been extremely thorough and made the course fun and intertesting. He is not based in the UK but does run courses over here.

Either way if you're gonna dive a Kiss - you'd do a lot worse than asking Zak who he would recommend and any suggestions or advice regarding the unit. He's def. one of the good guys

I did my MOD 1 with Dave Thompson out in the Red Sea and would recommend him. You can read the report Here

PM me if you want a chat sometime.
