Over two nights and two days last week, 5 intrepid divers took on the challenges of the PADI Deep and PADI Enriched Air course. Congratulations to Jye, Ceri, Mark, and Kerstin, as well as to Kevin who completed the Nitrox course on its own.

The course saw us work on the theoretical aspects of diving deep including amongst other things – gas consumption, appropriate ascent rates, equipment and specific relevant techniques.  In the Mean time the Enriched air course went through the advantages and special considerations around the use of gases other than air whilst diving.

On the weekend we got to go out and put this all into practice in the water – in what were varying though general very good conditions. The team went through some challenges, but pulled it together well in the end and all deservedly attained the above mentioned ratings. Congratulations to you all!

We look forward to spending time underwater with you again soon.

Simon,  Brendan and all the DCB Team.

Deep down you want the best training you can get. A fun weekend was had on the Deep diver specialty at some of Sydney’s best dive sites. Coupled with the Enriched Air Specialty we learnt the techniques for safe fun deep diving. Congrats to Ernst and Sam on a well completed course. (That counts as two specialities toward Master Scuba Diver :)

See you soon for some more diving

Cheers from Brendan & Team DCB

Last Thursday night and Saturday saw Martin, Jennifer and Andrew complete their PADI Enriched Air course. Congratulations! The course took us through the theoretical aspects of using Enriched Air including the advantages as well as the potential risks. Saturday saw us head out of the harbour and dive off the boat at Colours Reef and Old Man’s Hat. What a beautiful day to be out and about! We saw Wobbegong sharks, Port Jackson sharks and loads of other fish. Though definitely the highlight of the day was the Eastern Fur Seal that played with us for a bit both when we were above and below the water!!

 

Thanks for a great weekend guys, looking forward to seeing you soon!

Cheers Simon & Team DCB
