The PADI Scuba Review Course
Has it been a while since you’ve been scuba diving? Do you feel like your scuba skills and knowledge are a bit rusty? The Scuba Review Tune-up is just the refresher you need. It reacquaints you with diving so that you're back to feeling comfortable in the underwater world in less than a day.
The Fun Part
Brush up on your scuba knowledge and skills. Improve your diving ability, and get your scuba gear ready for your next diving holiday.
What You Learn
You go over scuba knowledge you learned during your initial training. Then, practice fundamental skills in a pool or a confined water area. You review:
Safe diving practices
Dive planning fundamentals
Problem management
Breathing air at depth
Recreational diving and dive tables: basic knowledge
Recreational diving and dive tables: dive planning
After you complete the knowledge assessment, you go through the Confined Water Skills Preview. You review information about each skill, why it’s important, points to remember when performing the skill and a short video clip. Completing this section just before practicing is a great way to refresh your knowledge of how each skill is performed.
The Scuba Review course is particularly beneficial if you:
Are a PADI Open Water Diver course referral student who wants a refresher prior to making your open water training dives
Are a PADI Scuba Diver who wants to upgrade to Open Water Diver
Just haven’t scuba dived in a while and want to get aclimated again
The Scuba Gear You Use
You use all the basic scuba gear, this is all available from Dive Central.
The Learning Materials You Need Quickly and effectively review scuba diving fundamentals with PADI’s Scuba Tune-Up Guidebook. Begin by answering a few questions related to dive safety, problem management and dive planning. For example:
What are the five steps in a pre-dive safety check?
What is the maximum depth limit for all recreational diving?
What are the signs and symptoms of decompression sickness?
At 12meters/ 40 feet a diver runs out of air. Her buddy is more than 60 feet away, what should she do?
