About this user

Tom Steiner van den Ouweelen
tom@dahabdivers.com
Tom was born in 1965, in Switzerland, 1 km from Bulle (which means Bubble in French!)... He speaks and writes fluently 7 languages (EN, F ,D, SP, NL, I & HUNG) and has some good Arabic knowledge. Tom started diving at the age of sixteen with an intro dive in Barbados during a holiday, and after returning to Switzerland decided to start his diving education in Lake Geneva.

90% of all of his diving education took place in the cold and dark Swiss lakes and 10% in the Mediterranean Sea, starting with CMAS and finally PADI, TDI, SDI, EDA, NRC, IANTD and BSAC.

After 20 years of professional diving he has over 7'000 dives! Tom has been working all over the world in the diving industry and has also attended many international dive shows.

He is today an EDA Examinator, CMAS M*** Instructor (CD), TDI & SDI Instructor Trainer, PADI Master Instructor, Master freediving Instructor and finally a BSAC & IANTD Instructor. Tom is specialised in training Instructors in the technical field and his passion is Rebreather, Nitrox, Gas Blending and Technical Diving.

He has been training Instructors all over the planet and is one of the most experienced Diving Instructor Trainer's worldwide. Tom has trained Astronauts at the ESA (European Space Agency) and the Greek Navy and Coast Guards on Rebreather. He also organised the AIDA Free Diving World Championship at Lake Geneva in 2000, where his team were responsible for the security of 48 free divers, spending 4 hours non-stop underwater at a temperature of 4 degrees Celsius!

The second worldwide Reefball project by PADI is also one of his projects. His 'know how' in Draeger Rebreather means that the Draeger Maintenance and Technology Seminar is one of the most amazing courses that you can take with him.

Tom has also trained Instructors from the most famous dive centres in the world, including Sinai Divers (Sharm el Sheikh), Sam's Tours (Palau), Hippoconsulting (France), Euro Divers (Maldives), Sea-Explorer (Maldives), Sinai Dive Club (Sharm el Sheikh) and Scuba-Shop's (Switzerland). He has also worked in collaboration with National Geographic, and trained on Draeger SCR the world famous hyperbarist Dr. Slostman Daniel and many more...

He has also written and translated books about Rebreather and Nitrox, posted some interesting reviews on the Internet about diving, and there you'll also find by him some interesting maps.
Tom and Sebastien Kister [Programer] have developed a software called [DS Deep Stop Wizard] to generate deep stop based on the gas volume expansion, he has been using it since 5 years on all the Technical dives. This program is available directly on his website www.fantaseatec.com or u can send him a email...and ask for more details.

Finally Tom dives exclusively with Apeks products in regulators, Draeger (Dolphin) and Azimuth (OMG) in rebreathers in SCR, Inspiration and Voyager in CCR, Apex and Custom Divers in wings, and DR5 and Sherwater in dive computers. His fins which he never changes are Dive System old school fins.
