Have been volunteering at the local aquarium, now moving into the diver program and have to do my check out dive. Most of the skills are basic the only one I am not familiar with is the "tired diver tow". I assume it involves:
1. Inflating their bc and getting them on their back.
2. Grabbing the bc firmly, at "top" and towing them in.
Is there a kick for the "tower" that is preferred?
Assuming they have air Reg in their mouth or out?
Are you supposed to grab something else to tow them by?
I have heard of a tired diver push how would you do that?
We will be in drysuits, lots of lead. As a long ago Life Guard I have some ideas but not having time to take the Rescue Diver course prior to the check out any help is appreciated.
