I just arrived from a three day trip to Sharm diving. And i loved it as usual except for the last day.
We meet an Instructor on the boat that came from Russia with her Students (Five Children) to give the course in Sharm; Cause she was not a resdent a friend of mine who is a DM dived with her.
After my first dive i was assisting one of the children and he's BCD with the TANK was in the water with the instrucotr i think 20 meters away. he had 8KG and a wetsuit i waited for her to come and give him the BCD. But she did not so one of the instructor took control and hold the child as he went down the ladder and is still waiting for her to come.
She shouted out me and the instructor thought she wants the student on the boat and she we will come makes perfect since. and then we found the student jumping in the water with and swimming to her. I was shocked and looked to the instructor and kind of asking with eyes is this practiced in open water courses? he had the same look in he's Eyes. He did not want to pass he's authority and question her. But we just felt that was very reckless.
After the dive my friend the DM who Was with them in the water came out pulling he's hair. And i will not bother to mention what he tolled me. I will only stick to what i witnessed.
In the 2nd dive the instructor refused to change the tank for one of the students he had 120 BAR??? and war started on board with 2 instructor and her; SHe said whats the problem when he finishs the air he can buddy breath!!!!!!
The DM master refused to dive and said if that student reach 50 BAR he's out.
Anyway you got the point;
I just think how can instructors get certified with this kind of mentality? I see loads of this stuff. Is there a way to send complaint to PADI?
