Rescue Skills Refresher
Dive South
Poole, Map
Anyone who has done a Rescue Course will tell you that it is one of the most worthwhile courses to do. It adds an important skill-set , and it boosts the confidence of the diver to be able to handle the unexpected.
It is just as important that these skills are kept sharp!
In this session, we will run through some land based work, and also some rescue scenarios in-water - both self, and buddy rescue - and discuss strategies and improvements, along with any updates to rescue techniques.
When was the last time you practiced surfacing an unconscious buddy?...
To join in, it goes without saying that you must be rescue qualified!
Email info@divesouth.co.uk for further details on this or any other courses you are interested in...
Buoyancy, Weighting & Trim Workshop
Dive South
Poole, Map
We have some spaces for our Buoyancy, Weighting & Trim Workshop.
This session is to really fine tune your buoyancy skills and techniques for hovering in trim, through teaching you how to correctly weight yourself, where to distribute it to give you the best position and control in the water.
It will be an hour presentation/briefing and discussion with you to work out what you want to achieve so we can taylor the session to your goals. Then we will spend 2 hours in the pool putting it all into practice. We will go for a debrief afterwards to discuss how it all went for you and provide any suggestions and answer any questions you may have.
The session is £40. If you have your own kit then please bring it as we do like to get you in the pool with the kit you would be usually diving in. If not please let us know what you need.
We only run these sessions for small groups, so spaces are limited. To book your space or for more info please message Lisa at Lisa@divesouth.co.uk
You must be a qualified diver to attend, if you are not already qualified, please ask for details of our next RAID Open water 20 course.
We will also be running some 'Finning Techniques Workshops', some 'Rescue Refresher Skills Workshops' and some 'Drysuit Orientation Workshops, so please keep an eye on our events:)
