If you haven't dived in the last six months or feel rusty and nervous about entering the ocean, this refresher workshop is for you. Before the night, you will have an opportunity to review your theory. Then, you will come to the club to review equipment, ask an experienced diver questions, and spend an hour in the pool practising dive skills and fine-tuning buoyancy/ trim.
Juniors: If your parent or guardian isn't participating, they will still need to stay the whole time and watch.
The cost is $40 and includes pool entry and use of the club wetsuit, weights, BCD, regulators, and a cylinder of air. You will need to bring your own fins, mask, snorkel, and bathers.
When you fill in your registration form, please read the event waiver with the terms and conditions, including refund conditions.
You will receive a link to an online quiz. This will include questions and resources to help you revise scuba diving theory as well as help your workshop lead get an idea of where you are in your diving journey and what you need to work on. If you have any questions while reading through this information, please reach out. You will also have an opportunity to ask questions in person during the workshop.
Meet no later than 5:30 pm at the club shed at 159 Sir William MacGregor Dr, St Lucia QLD 4067 (https://maps.app.goo.gl/WcC6gPR81YwpBd1g8). As soon as you arrive, start trying on wetsuits and BCDs. Your workshop lead will then gather the group and go through how to assemble the equipment, dive theory questions and what will happen in the pool,
Get in the water by 7 pm for an hour of skills training with an experienced diver. Each session is different and highly individualized to the divers' needs to improve their dive skills, confidence, buoyancy, and trim. If you have any particular skills you would like to practice please ask.
