RUSTY DIVER REVIEW

• 
  
  
  Scuba Steve's Scuba Shack "Rusty Diver Refresher Course" is designed to quickly reacquaint you with your diving skills, and then quickly move you back into the open water environment.
  
  After a straight-forward knowledge and skill development session, we will dive in small groups at a local dive site.
  
  Scuba Steve's Scuba Shack "Rusty Diver Refresher Course" contains three parts - Knowledge Development, Water skills Development and the Open Water Dive.
  
  During the Knowledge Development Session, you will review the basic dive safety information and overview skills that you will use during your open water dive.
  
  The Water skills Development Session will refresh you to the essential dive skills, such as mask clearing, regulator clearing and alternate air source use. You will complete skills and gain confidence in confined water before diving in the open water.
  
  
  

  It will be like riding a bicycle ... you never really forget how !!!
