Well I finally did it, I am now OW certified! What a great feeling! We did our dives off Oshima island in the Seito inland sea, about 2hrs south of Hiroshima. Temp was 57F and vis was 10-15 ft. As far as I'm concerned PERFECT! I can't wait to be back underwater!
Now as for the title of the thread. I have been reading this board sometime now, (which made the class a lot easier!) and have read differing opinions on what entry level skills a new diver should be taught. I thought it would be ineresting to see what you all thought would be the ultimate list of skills and confidence building excercises a beginner diver should be taught, regardless of what associaton you are affiliated with. There is a lot of experience on this board, I just thought it might be an interesting topic.
Thanks for all your help ScubaBoard! Chuck
