Drysuit Diver Class
Drysuit Diver Class
Course fee does not include drysuit rental Description: Want to stay warm? Want to extend your scuba diving season? Then dive dry. A dry suit seals you off from the water and keeps you comfortable, even in surprisingly cold water. There is incredible diving in the world’s cooler regions and in some areas, conditions are even better in colder months. Becoming a dry suit diver allows you to expand your boundaries and dive more places, more often. Prerequisite: If you are at least 10 years old and certified as a (Junior) Open Water Diver or higher, you can enroll in the Dry Suit Diver course. Academics: The first thing you will discover is which dry suit style and accompanying undergarments are right for you and the diving you will do. Then you will learn how to take care of your dry suit. During two dives, in addition to a confined water dive, you will practice:
  • Putting on and taking off your dry suit with minimal assistance,
  • Mastering buoyancy control using your dry suit,
  • Dive safety procedures when using a dry suit.
You may be able to get college credit for the Dry Suit Diver course – ask your instructor about earning credit. Equipment: Clearly a dry suit is necessary along with your basic scuba equipment. Your instructor or dive center staff will explain other gear or equipment options you may need to dive comfortably with your dry suit. For example, because you’re more buoyant in a dry suit than in a wetsuit, you may want a different weight system setup. You can pick the certifying agency of your choice: PADI or SSI.
