Intro to Tech Day 23rd Sept Wraysbury

On Sunday 23rd Sept I'm going to be running an Introduction To Technical Diving day at Wraysbury.

This is aimed at recreational divers who are interested in progressing to technical diving but have questions as to whether it is for them or the correct way to progress.

This will include an overview of technical diving including;
- what it involves
- differences in equipment
- differences in approach
- tech diving techniques
- tech diving skills
- how to move into technical diving

There will also be a practical session where we look at buoyancy control, streamlining and skills.

The cost for this is £50 per person. Spaces are limited so get your names down if you are interested.

I would mirror Garf's comments, come and get the low down from a top instructor rather than reading about it on t'internet...

Great offer Mark although I'd be more interested in one for people who have already moved in technical (at novice end) but aren't flash pants like Garf

I'm actually due to be diving Sunday, in the sea, yipeee otherwise I'd come along to see ya anyway Haven't had a chat in ages !!

Hope it goes well
