As a new diver, around my 50th dive, I began to wonder, "What's next?" and "How can I improve as a diver?" This led me to research various concepts to enhance my skills and knowledge. These sections are designed for NOVICE divers who are exploring these topics for the first time. For those who consider themselves experts, I'll provide links to more in-depth resources at the top of each section.
GUE Fundamentals, also known as "Fundies", what is it? What is it about? Should I take it? When should I take it?
Don't just do a buddy check...do a proper pre-dive plan. But how do I do that?
The dive briefing said 30 minutes at 80 feet and I'm diving a single standard Aluminum 80...that sounds reasonable....but is it?
Is it a stage bottle? A deco bottle? A bailout bottle? How is it rigged? Why would I want one? Is it part of my gas plan? Ooh awesome....can I dive longer with one?
