As of January 1, 2017, DIVING FOR FUN will
NO LONGER be offering training services. However, we wanted to continue to provide
a list of the classes we offered along with course outlines as a reference for all our past customers.
Course Overview:
Whether it is a regulator problem, a wet suit tear or a broken mask strap, the Equipment Specialist
course can help. The Equipment Specialist course prepares you for basic equipment maintenance, care
and adjustments you will encounter every day. In addition, you will get the valuable background
information on equipment repairs and purchasing, making you better able to protect your investment. However,
this course is NOT a repair course.
Prerequisites:
Must be at least 10 years old and certified as a Junior Open Water Diver or an Open Water Diver.
Course Activities:
This course will familiarize divers with the operation and maintenance of your personal diving
equipment. You will learn about the theory, principles and operation of diving equipment,
recommended care and maintenance procedures, and proper equipment storage, common problems
encountered with equipment and recommended professional maintenance procedures and simple
suggestions for comfortable equipment configurations and an introduction to new equipment.
In addition, during the classroom, you get to touch, feel, try on/out, if you would like the
different types of masks, snorkels, buoyancy compensator device (bcd), weights, weight systems, fins and accessories.
- Classroom:
There is one classroom session. The classroom session will
cover dive equipment chapters in the Encyclopedia of Recreational Diving Manual, review your knowledge
review answers.
- Independent Study:
Read the chapters about diving equipment in the Encyclopedia
of Recreational Diving Manual and complete the knowledge review located at the end of the
chapters. You will need to turn in the knowledge review prior to certification or provide a copy of an
Adventure Log signed by an appropriate instructor if you have already done dive one in connection with
your Adventure Diver or Advanced Open Water Diver Certification.
- Open Water Dives:
This is a non-diving specialty.
Forms Required:
No forms required for this course.
Materials/Equipment Required:
The Encyclopedia of Recreational Diving DVD.
Length of Course:
If you have read the chapters covering dive equipment in the Encyclopedia of Recreational Diving
Manual, completed the knowledge reviews prior to coming to class then the classroom will last
approximately 2 hours depending upon class size.
