rEvo MOD 1
I don't know if there are any rEvo users on YD; but I've parted with the cash and am all set for my MOD1 with Dave Cooper in Geneva in March.

I'm keen to get as much practice on the skills and drills as I can before the course. Has anyone done a MOD1 rEvo course? What skills can / should I practice on O/C before I start?

I'm having the mCCR version, if it makes any difference.

Oh yeah, and someone please tell me that what Brett says about Dave isn't true!

Other than that, I ve heard Lake Geneva in March is almost tropical and perhaps you shouldn t take the drysuit when a 3mm wetsuit is ample.

I did my MOD 3 with Dave in Switzerland and really enjoyed it. All I needed to do was turn up at Dave's house and everything else just happened. There's a report on RBW I think. Lake Geneva was cold in November. I would say similar to a UK quarry in Dec / Jan, so it will still be very cold in March.

If you're currently diving OC I don't think there are any specific skills you can do beforehand. Just go with very low expectations of your buoyancy and be pleasantly surprised if you turn out to be better than you expect.
