PADI EQUIPMENT SPCIALTY COURSE...IS IT WORTH IT?

Don’t miss a dive due to a scuba gear is-

sue. Whether it's a blown O-

ring, regulator problem, wetsuit tear or a

broken fin strap, you can learn how to

manage basic scuba equipment adjust-

ments.

As a PADI Equipment Specialist, you are prepared for the basic scuba

equipment maintenance, care and adjustments you'll encounter every

day. In addition, you'll learn interesting background information about

how your gear works, how it’s repair and other information that helps

you with your equipment investment.

Additionally, if you don’t already have your PADI Advanced Certification,

this course counts as one of your dives. More importantly this course

counts toward a specialty needed for your Master Scuba Diver Certifica-

tion.

PADI Equipment Specialty - How does it work?

To enroll in the PADI Equipment Specialty course in Bali, you must be

a PADI Scuba Diver (or qualifying certification from another organiza-

tion). No dives are required, so you can take the Equipment Specialist

course any time of the year.

With the PADI equipment specialty course you will come to our dive

center where our Instructor will go through the following with you:

• Review the theory, principles and operation of scuba diving equip-

ment

• Learn about routine, recommended care and maintenance proce-

dures, and equipment storage

• How to overcome common problems with equipment and recom-

mended professional maintenance procedures (may include a

demonstration of repair procedures).

• Gain simple suggestions for comfortable equipment configurations

and an introduction to new gear (may include optional confined

water dive to try new or unfamiliar equipment).

PADI Equipment Specialty - Where will I dive?

The PADI Equipment Specialty course is a non-diving specialty course

which means that there are no dives included in the course.

ENRICHED AIR CLASS

WE CUSTOMIZE THE SCHEDULE JUST FOR YOU

WHY DIVE NITROX?

1. Longer Bottom Times: Recreational nitrox (21 - 40% oxy-

gen) contains a lower percent-

age of nitrogen than air. The

reduced percentage of nitrogen

in recreational nitrox allows di-

vers to extend their no-

decompression limits(or dive

time) by reducing nitrogen ab-

sorption – the less nitrogen

there is in a diver's breathing

gas, the slower his nitrogen ab-

sorption will be at a given depth.

For example, according to the

NOAA (National Oceanographic and Atmospheric Associa-

tion) no-decompression dive tables, a diver using Nitrox 36

(or NOAA Nitrox II) may stay up to 50 minutes at 90 feet of

sea water, while a diver using air may only stay a maximum

of 30 minutes at this depth.

2. Shorter Surface Intervals: A diver using nitrox absorbs less

nitrogen for a given depth and dive time than a diver using

air. This means that the nitrox diver has less nitrogen to off-

gas during a surface interval, which can shorten the re-

quired surface interval drastically. For example, a diver us-

ing Nitrox 32 (NOAA Nitrox I) can repeat a 50 minute dive to

60 feet after 41 minutes, while a diver using air must wait a

minimum of 8 hours to repeat the same dive (using to NO-

AA's no decompression dive tables).

3. Longer Repetitive Dive Times: Nitrox becomes especially

useful for divers who engage in more than one dive per a

day. A diver using nitrox will have a longer allowable bottom

time on a repetitive dive than a diver using air because the

diver using nitrox has absorbed less nitrogen. For example,

after a dive to 70 feet for 30 minutes, a diver using Nitrox 32

can stay at 70 feet for a maximum of 24 minutes if he im-

mediately reenters the water. However, a diver preforming

the same series of dives on air may only stay at 70 feet for

19 minutes on his second dive (according to NOAA's no de-

compression dive tables).

4. Reduced Exhaustion: Many divers claim to feel less ex-

hausted after a dive on nitrox than after a comparable dive

on air. By reducing a diver's nitrogen absorption, nitrox may

also reduce a diver's post-dive exhaustion.

5. Shorter Decompression: Technical divers use nitrox to re-

duce decompression requirements. If nitrox is used

throughout the dive, the diver may require shorter or fewer

decompression stops. If nitrox is used as a decompression

gas (the diver only breathes nitrox during the decompres-

sion stops), the decompression stops will be shorter.

tor system for you. The new MK17 EVO is Scubapro's premium

high performance balanced diaphragm first stage. Engineered spe-

cifically for cold water and harsh environments, its internal com-

ponents are completely sealed off from the elements so neither

water nor pollution can get inside the chrome-plated marine

grade brass body to foul the mechanism.

tions. Additionally, its over-balanced diaphragm first stage design

gives you better breathing performance at greater depths. he C370 is

the newest addition to Scubapro's family of high performance second

stages. Fully adjustable, the C370 includes a user adjustable inhala-

tion effort control knob along with a small coaxial dive/pre-dive lever.
