3 books in one (Divemaster / Briefing / Maintenance) for only €12,99 (printed version)
This is a book collection that should be found in every divers bag or box.
For every diver we have something so will Divemasters and divers in the process of becoming a Divemaster probably be interested in the book "DIVEMASTER – Just a course or a way of living".
And for every diver beginner or experienced there is the book "BIEFING – An art on its own" that gives you a little bit of extra knowledge that is needed after doing your dive course about the how and why on behaving on diving boats or why a briefing is given.
And then there is "MAINTENANCE – Tips and Tricks" for those that would like to take a little bit more care for their equipment
Now here is your chance to get all three of them in one book with a huge discount.
Divemaster
A must have for only €7,99 (printed version)
Anywhere in the world you can follow a Divemaster course at one of the many dive organisations out there but did you ever ask yourself ‘why am I actually doing it?’ Is it because I would like to have a job in the diving industry or just because I want to have an extra card to show all my buddies and friends, or do I do it for…?
So you see there are enough possibilities, but there is not much information about what you as a Divemaster can do in the dive business. And most of all there is no information to be found anywhere about the pros and cons of being a Divemaster.
After working for more than 20 years as a dive professional all over the world, but also as a dive business owner, I have seen many differences in Divemasters, instructors and shop owners. So it is time for a Divemaster manual to prepare new ways and perhaps change some old bad habits.
There are Divemaster course books in abundance, but for those who take the leap and start a Divemaster course or job, there is a lot of missing information.
I hope this book will make you enthusiastic or will give you answers to your still unanswered questions.
Briefing
The essential info for only €6,99 (printed version)
This book is meant for all divers from beginner to professional with lots of information on boat etiquette, dive briefings, and safety before, during and after the dive.
The dive briefing might seem for some of a waste of time, but for the majority of us it is the most important part of the dive no matter whether it’s from the shore or from a boat. Knowing where to go and why is of the greatest importance
if you want to see everything and do it in the safest way.
The buddy check – checking your own and your buddy’s dive gear – is essential not only to make sure if all equipment is put on and geared up correctly, but also in case of an emergency. Then you will know exactly where to find the part of equipment you need on your buddy’s dive gear and so does he.
Drawing an underwater map of a dive site is something not everybody can do. There are underwater maps that are readable for all divers, whether experienced or beginner, and there are underwater maps that are real works of art. These are mostly the ones we find in books about certain wreck sites or popular diving destinations. Do not forget that these are made by professionals.
Maintenance
The series important Nr. 3
We all know diving is an equipment intensive activity this is why our equipment becomes a part of how we feel underwater and with feel I mean safety and comfort.
Taking care of you dive equipment is something that is taught in almost every dive course. This because it’s a very important part of your diving day. Not only wile it makes sure you can use your dive equipment for a long time but also wile it is the first step in your own safety process.
Most scuba gear comes with instructional manuals describing manufacturer recommendations for care and maintenance and if you care about yourself, your gear and your buddy you follow these recommendations.
In this book we talk about the standard things all divers do before and after their dives to make sure all is ok with their equipment, but we would like to give you some extra advice in the form of small tips and Tricks on maintaining and cleaning your dive equipment.
Washing your gear ensures that it all performs safely but it is not only washing this book also gives information on servicing your BCD, Regulators and other gear that needs this done every once in a while.
