First Skills of Tec Dive

  • Technical diving (also referred to as tec diving or tech diving) is scuba diving that exceeds the agency-specified limits of recreational diving for non-professional purposes. Technical diving may expose the diver to hazards beyond those normally associated with recreational diving, and to greater risk of serious injury or death. The risk may be reduced by appropriate skills, knowledge and experience, and by using suitable equipment and procedures. The skills may be developed through appropriate specialised training and experience. The equipment often involves breathing gases other than air or standard nitrox mixtures, and multiple gas sources.
    The term technical diving has been credited to Michael Menduno, who was editor of the (now defunct) diving magazine aquaCorps Journal. The concept and term, technical diving, are both relatively recent advents, although divers have been engaging in what is now commonly referred to as technical diving for decades.

    It's really refreshing to see such precise scuba skills. It encourages me to want to work towards the same goal. Somethings all divers should consider.

    • @dive_like_grinch
      @dive_like_grinch  Před 6 lety +2

    • @tecdive8045
      @tecdive8045 Před 5 lety +1

      depends on your definition of best, but if best means most precise and thorough skills - with virtually no quality variation between instructors (and so no need for the BS excuse of "looking for the best instructor") then GUE and UTD (my preference) are by far the best. Good luck on your journey

    • @charlesg7926

      Also something often overlooked is the location. If you find an instructor in calm and warm water, it’ll help you focus more on learning and the skills. In locations with cold and choppy water, you’ll be more distracted and it’ll be harder to learn new things. Once you’ve mastered it though, cold/choppy water provides a good challenge
      And personally, I recommend PADI for basic OW, advance and rescue. PADI is the “fun” courses. Which is good when you’re learning the basics. You want to love scuba, not hate it. With that said for advanced dives, SSI/TDI and GUE are both more thorough than PADI on technical stuff. So I recommend them for Tech or cavern/cave diving. That’s what I did and I’m a pretty solid diver now

  • @tailemac
    @tailemac Před 4 lety

    Awesome trim and video. Are these GUE divers? They are the only ones I know who dive with precise trim like this. I’m Padi diver all the way to DM but I do hope to train with GUE tech someday.

    • @Yggdrasil42
      @Yggdrasil42 Před 4 lety

      Any tech agency will train these skills. GUE is a good choice if you're into their specific diving style. I've met many good instructors from them. I personally did my tech training with TDI, because they do consider sidemount a valid configuration for open water technical diving. Had excellent instructors too. So look at what you want to do, then find a good instructor. The agency choice is secondary.

    • @charlesg7926
      @charlesg7926 Před 2 lety +1

      A few random tips: 1) I recommend learning doubles or sidemount now. And get certified for them. Buy the gear. 2) Also get really good at clipping and unclipping and using stuff, like lights, reel, SMB, etc. Learn how to memorize where they are. 3) Just do a ton of dives each day and at night refresh yourself with CZcams videos and try to emulate that trim, technique and buoyancy skills. 4) have a dive buddy videotape you scuba diving/swimming so you can see and thus improve your technique

      Why? You have the long hose that is secure. The teammate has good skills. Both divers have both hands free to other other things like deploying an SMB for blue water ascent. Why do you *always* hold to each other?

    • @Yggdrasil42
      @Yggdrasil42 Před 4 lety

      In recreational diving that's a good idea because of the short octopus hose and less than perfect buoyancy control. In technical diving not so much due to long hose and better skills.

    good basic drills as advertised..however....Trimmed tech..why no H valves?

    • @Yggdrasil42
      @Yggdrasil42 Před 5 lety

      What do H valves have to do with trim or tec though? H valves seem like a solution that no one really needs. They complicate things for rec OW divers, while people who need redundancy are better served by fully redundant gas supply like manifolded doubles or two independent tanks in sidemount. The only place where H valves have a purpose is in very cold water where the increased flow from buddy breathing could cause a single first stage to freeze, and having an H valve with two first stages should help. Even then two tanks would be the preferred solution.

      Those aren't really done in technical diving. Serves no real purpose. The horizontal "skydiving" position is where it's at. A 90 degree roll to your left or right side can be useful, especially in sidemount, to pass through narrow passages or doorways in wrecks or caves.
