What you can do in a Discover Scuba experience

One of my facebook friends posted this album, from a Discover Scuba he did: https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.457339601043598.1073741850.118839888226906&type=1

He describes how they did it, but like most Discover Scubas, it involved a little briefing time and then some in-water time.

I think it's fabulous how well the students have modeled the instructors. We've seen lots of pictures from a variety of people, showing Dive 4 OW students looking like this -- but these guys haven't got a full hour in open water yet, and here's how they look:



I think this brings home the absolute importance of instructors and staff modeling good diving technique at all times!

Agreed.

I learned to dive in trim simply because my OW instructor was in trim. I didn't know any better (or worse, as the case may be.)

Just goes to show it's more about the instructor and student than what agency or class.

Trim never came up even in OW, much less Discover. I learned on the boat from a DM teaching an 11 year old on our first dive vacation.

Sometimes you don't know what you don't know.
