Advanced Buoyancy Control

SSI recently approved a new Specialty in Advanced Buoyancy Control. This is a diving
certification that counts towards your Specialty Diver certification and/or your Advanced Open Water certification. And it’s an excellent stand-alone course if you just want to improve your buoyancy control to make diving more comfortable, relaxed, and enjoyable. You will see your air management, diving comfort, and general confidence soar after you've mastered the finer techniques of buoyancy control.

Some of the topics covered will include:

  • Proper weighting and weight distribution and weight “trimming”
  • Underwater breathing techniques
  • Understanding the lungs as an internal “BCD”
  • Body positioning
  • Maneuvering in tight quarters
  • Changing positions with minimal effort
  • Fin control
  • Proper BCD inflation/deflation
  • Controlled ascents/descents

Costs: $300.00 plus books.
Optional Aquarena dive on Saturday for an additional $30.00

Combo- $299 for Diving for Science and Buoyancy Class
