| PEAK
PERFORMANCE BUOYANCY |
|
One
of the greatest thrills of diving is just hovering
mid-water in a school of barracuda. No stress,
effortless, using as little air as possible. This
comes from good buoyancy control. This two-dive
specialty will focus on correct weighting using
your lungs correctly to control your buoyancy.
Save
air and energy and develop a more relaxed, controlled
diving technique. Great to combine with other
specialties where buoyancy is essential, such
as Photographer, or with an Open Water course
to build greater confidence.
