[ComandnConquerFreak]

once again, a great video, thanks guys!

[mrstaxski]

As an experienced but 'rusty' diver, who is currently doing the DMT, I found these videos invaluable. I've been diving for over ten years, so my memory of th basic skills is quite poor. Thanks guys.

thanks for the clip

Well I'm a DM and find these vids very helpful for keeping my skills up to demonstration standard.

[calkelpdiver]

For alt-air exercise you do not turn the students air off. Also, person needing air needs to alert air donor of the low/out of air situation. The donor takes control and not the receiver.

During the CESA where was the "instructor" to go along with the student to aid them in the skill? The instructor is to be there to prevent problems (like spit out regulator, hold breath). Very bad demonstration.

I was a PADI instructor for 15 years, and was better than these clowns.

[stokierich100]

@calkelpdiver You do realise that this is an instructor demonstrating a CESA?

Not an video of an instructor assessing a student diver's skill!

Why would there need to be an instructor to go along with an instructor doing a demo?

Pretty good demo actually. Compare to PADI standards. lots of 5's in the IE i reckon.

Your "clowns" comment just shows a lack of respect and judgement. Well done you!

[calkelpdiver]

Yes I know it was the instructor. But you always use a "qualified" assistant, be it another Instructor or a DM, to demonstrate the CESA while you the primary instructor are in control.

And my statement stands. It is videos like this that worry me about how divers are trained.

I trained people for over 10 years in California and made sure I turned out 'qualified' divers, not just 'certified' ones.

And this wasn't a lack of respect or judement on my part. It was a statement.

[stokierich100]

I still disagree with you.

The aim of the videos is not to take on the role of a Course Director teaching instructors how to teach, control a group of students etc.

The videos are a DM skill circuit, so are surely aimed at a Certified Assistant being able to perform these skills at demo quality to pass their DM, or perhaps as a quick refresher.

I think we are probably talking at cross purposes, and you seem to be damning this video for things that it is not even trying to be.

[GixerJohn]

Very good clip and very well demonstrated

Thanks!

Regulator clearing: 5 points...

Regulator recovering: Great, just stress a bit more that you lean over to your right.

I grant you an extra applaus for getting the right speed in the CESA demonstration!

[Steelshooter]

Great stuff, what great review. I'll be passing these onto friends looking to get into diving. You always need more dive buddies.
