There is more to a drysuit than you might imagine. By creating a pocket between you and the suit there is now a new air space that needs to be equalised when descending and ascending and will affect your buoyancy control. The course will get you orientated and experienced in using this equipment and ensuring your suit is properly maintained and looked after.
Your Drysuit Diver qualification allows you to expand your boundaries and dive more places, more often. Some divers prefer the warmer personal environment it brings during a dive whilst for others its an absolute necessity. Ever wondered how documentaries film under the ice?
