Want to know about how your dive gear works? Then the PADI Equipment Specialist course is for you. This course familiarizes you with the operation and maintenance of your dive equipment. The more you know about how your gear works, the more comfortable you are with it, the more performance you get from it and the better you can care for it.

•        Must be a PADI Scuba Diver or Junior Scuba Diver (or qualifying certification from another organization)

•        Reviews the theory, principles and operation of dive equipment

•        Routine, recommended care and maintenance procedures, and equipment storage

•        Common problems with equipment and recommended professional maintenance procedures (may include a demonstration of repair procedures)

•        Simple suggestions for comfortable equipment configurations and an introduction to new gear (may include optional confined water dive to try new or unfamiliar equipment)

•        No dives are required, so you can take the Equipment Specialist course any time of the year

•        The PADI Equipment Specialist Course is not an equipment repair course

•        Certification counts toward the PADI Master Scuba Diver rating.

   

Great Dive Shop!

Great Dive Shop, the instructor went out of his way to explain things and he was super patient. My husband has been trying to get me Scuba certified for years and I kept putting it off, but now that I am certified, I really wish I had done it sooner. The process was a lot easier than i thought it would be, and the teacher walked us through everything in a way that was really easy to understand. after I got my certification, my husband and I decided to sign up our two kids (14, 17) and now our whole family is certified.  I would say this place is family friendly and a great place to take classes and buy equipment.
