Core Underwater Scuba Skills
Underwater skills are what separate divers who are simply underwater from those who dive with control, awareness, and purpose. Mastery here doesn’t mean being perfect it means being capable, calm, and comfortable in motion and in place.
How to Hover
Hovering means staying motionless and neutrally buoyant. Learn why trim is key and how to practice for control and effortless stops.
Finning Techniques
Frog, back, and helicopter kicks give divers better control and precision. Learn how they improve efficiency and teamwork.
dSMB Deployment
Deploying a dSMB midwater is key for safe ascents and boat pickups. Learn when to use it, the right gear, and how to launch while staying in control.
Night Diving
Night diving brings new marine life and vivid colors but needs extra prep and gear. Learn key differences, what to bring, and tips for safe dives after dark.
Why Carry a Light
A dive light improves visibility, communication, and safety on nearly every dive, not just at night. It should be standard equipment.
