I love helping out at my dive shop when new students come through and when they get their cert card at the end they are so stoked. I even make videos for some of them so they can look back and compare how well they've progressed since they were a newb.
Great video, thumbs up from us and cheers from sunny IGY Simpson Bay Marina, Sint Maarten in the Caribbean.
With a Video like this You learn Basics but Never go dive when you just have watched a Video like this.
take a class from a P.A.D.I. certified dive school and then never dive alone. gotta have a dive buddy.
we'll, it is common knowledge to take an actual dive course. We made this video to promote our company at the beginning of when we first started our company.
What a great video for someone wanting to do some research before taking the leap to a diving class. Thanks for the post!
Learning scuba diving requires a lot of concentration and determination. Great video showing step by step procedure of scuba diving.
Fascinating I just love the sound of the natural water and air sounds without the Dramatic Music background which I'm sure is not included under the ocean or swimming pool
Bubbles are going backwards at 4:34
This video will help me btw I’m talking scuba diving class over summer, so I’m taking a try scuba class like at May 21th (part 1) so my guess is after i done with try scuba class I’m gonna sign up for open water dive course like June or July it little bit tough for me to find a good date but I can’t wait to learn myself how to scuba diving 🤿
Welcome to another episode of where quarantine has got me today
usaas94 ..... snorkels are used for when your at the surface, using the snorkel will save your air in the cylinder. its good practice to have it attached even if your not using it .
the point is to get in good habits of keeping it in your mouth dumbass
Great video. My scuba class was great. Now learning on the fullface mask.
Great,informative learning video, a little fast,but ok, I will rewatch, thanks Bearhunter5
use the "P"position for leave bubbles take only plastic
Never leave the tank standing up!!
Thank you for this tutorial.
There's nothing like a quick refresher before another dive weekend!!
Check out the scuba diving edit on my channel :)
im going to the lake on saturday and sunday for my open water diver course
Yes for sure
great video
I'm getting into scuba diving myself.
Nice video. Informative.
Really best and awesome... i really like it..
gonna do it here real soon
Thank you very much for this video. it's exactly what I have been looking for as my interest has peeked for this hobby as I rapidly approaching AARP eligible status. I want to do something that I always wanted to do.
i live in the bahamas and a friend of mine took me on a dive in a depth of 9.0 meters. I am 12 years old.
I want to learn to scuba dive
Good Video!
Ya won't regret it!
I love it
Air tank strap should be lower that's going to slip of 0:44 also you don't need a quarter turn back there was a accident which resulted in a death of a female diver cause the pressure gauge showed 250bar but when she took a breath that number went down to zero and she died after surfacing to quickly (a safe number being 9-10meters per 1minuite)
You can now upload your scuba diving videos onto SCUBAVERSE TV! It’s quick, easy and other users can rate, share and comment on your videos too! Find out how to upload your videos onto SCUBAVERSE TV here: www.scubaverse.com/upload-videos/
18 meters a minute? Are you crazy?
😂
The usual rate of ascend was 60 feet (18 meters) per minute until the U.S. Navy adopted the 30 foot (9 meters) per minute rate in 1996 and training agencies followed suit.
why so you put the spg aginst somthing
Nice video.
sucba sounds very interesting. I have always wanted to try this.looks fun
Sounds fun
im 13 and live in north wales would anyone have a clue where i can learn this and buy the gear
Not sure if still relevant but I would recommend BSAC , british sub aqua club .. Just go to their website and have a look, there should be a club near you ;)
3 meters is normal depth for a diving pool
What is the song called in this?
nice getting my open water certification this week good video
You see i am 11 and i have my lisence to scuba dive :) im going for my masters soon turst me it's so fun !! :D
Sames!
Doing it this week for open water diver and I am 10 turning 11!!
Me too ☺️
same but I'm 12
turst me lmao ok
Thank you for this vid, very good information.
Did they say ascent 18 meters a minute? Isn't that too fast?
He said not to ascend faster than 18 meters per minute.
That's about 60 ft/min which is the recommended maximum ascent rate for most agencies. Basically 1 ft/sec.
yu ascend below 18m/60ft per minute, or if your dive computer tells you lower use that.use whichever isa slower ascent rate.
4.33 its going in reverse
How do you make a career out of this?? I want to do this so bad I want to explore the underwater world
Hey brother!. There are plenty of courses out there that will take you from having no prior experience of diving to becoming a fully qualified scuba diving instructor! : )
Jack Broad thanks man! I needed to hear that looking forward to go take courses really soon. I hope so. Cause I have no experience but I really want to do this
Jack Broad and about how much is it for the cost?
Jorge Villarejo I suppose it depends were you live. some dive shops offer tertiary courses which you can get student loans for. otherwise it can be expensive. or you can gradually progress through the ranks by doing your basic open water then when you have the money move on to doing your advanced open water etc.....
Jack Broad thank u
good luck
When ascending do you equalise?
Don't listen to edgy numetal kid, who doesn't know what he or she is talking about.
No, you don't equalize your ears when ascending; you equalize when descending. When you're ascending your ears take care of themselves, and your job is to watch your ascent rate, release air from your BCD as needed so you don't ascend too fast, and...most important...don't hold your breath.
Lol I misread ascending for descending...
Read the question again, Alexander: he asked if you equalize when ASCENDING, not if you do it when DESCENDING. The answer is "no." And unless you have a reverse block (rare, unless you dive with a cold or when having a hayfever attack) your ears won't get "badly hurt" from not equalizing when ascending; only if you don't equalize them when descending.
yes kinda what i meant sorry :(
How deep is this pool?
5 meters
I am the best scuba diver in my diving class its very easy for me I am so natural but there are better scuba divers out there I am only 12
Only about 20 million !!!1 It's not a competition, there is no best, it's about enjoymeny dumbass kid !!!
no one cares, grant
why do they have snorkels
IKR!!+!
Just so you know I think those anemone fish are a species of clown fish. Any way great vid
Clown fish are a type of anemone fish. You've got it backwards.
The More You Know! XD
Tank strap is not up to today's standard way of rigging :P
Wanna do this (Y)
how do you sink when there's a airtank, wouldn't you float up?
It must be hard to be that dumb
+Madjack you talking to me
+Seth Taylor Ignore that guy. 99%of divers will use wight belts or some sort of weighting. there may be a few cases where people just sink naturally because of there body shape and wight but also it depends on the type of water you are diving in.
+Kanadian1080p thank you for being nice, and telling me how they sink
;)
"how do you sink when there's a airtank, wouldn't you float up?"
No, you won't float with a full tank, although you might with an empty tank. Remember that the air has weight, and compressed air weighs more (for a given volume) than uncompressed air. Then add the weight of the tank, which is thick steel or aluminum.
Weight belts (or weight-integrated BCDs) are needed for divers wearing wet suits, because neoprene foam floats. By adding and releasing air from the BCD (buoyancy compensating device) you can control precisely how fast you sink, rise, or hover in the water.
The background music..... no way.....
And when you learn that shit, you can come to galapagos and dive with a ton of sharks! Check out my newest video. Recorded alot of different sharks and whales closeup
whats the "Pcd?"
BCD
+50nollieman First of all its 'BCD' which means Buoyancy Compensator Device.
@Bdiven gloves and a hood, and a thick suit
lol...i wouldnt be able to certify... tread water for 10 minutes??? damn ....i can only do like 5 mins last time i tried.
Sadly, I've got asthma, so I may never be able to go scuba diving. Goddamn lungs :S
I am going to scuba dive in like a weak
*Week*
I thought this was a tutorial, now I have to google wtf is SPG....
Nice tutorial. ANNOYING MUSIC.
thumbs up if you came here because of tara and matt on destructoid
Why am I here. I'm already certified
can I ask how much would it cost to do all this to get it and all that
ryan, the cost depends a lot on where you live, and also which agency and school you train with. The best way to find out what it costs in your area is to call a dive shop or check online. The price of gear also varies a lot depending on the brands and models you get, and whether you buy new or used.
For example, I'm very tall but pretty slender, and I dive in very cold water (Puget Sound), so I needed a custom-made cold-water wetsuit. If you're average size and dive in warm water you can get by with an off-the-shelf shorty or maybe even no wetsuit at all. Same with a regulator: I'm old and frail by diving standards, so I wanted the easiest-breathing regulator I could get; in other words, expensive. But if you're young and fit you could well get by with a less high-end regulator. And so on. Again, talk with someone at a reputable dive shop to get an idea on prices. (And I do suggest buying from your local store, not online. We need the shops as a place to get our tanks filled, rent gear, etc., and if we don't support them they may go out of business in the face of online competition.)
the padi course is 179$ but then you need your gear.
$179 is a really good price. When I took my Open Water Diver course it was $349, which included classroom time and in-water time for the instructors; use of a scuba cylinder, regulator, and BCD; and use of a city-owned pool for the four confined water dives, but you had to buy or rent fins, mask, snorkel, boots, and gloves. (What is really nice is that this school offers everyone the free use of a dry suit and a drysuit orientation lesson along with their OWD course, since the water here is so cold even in the summer.)
Ok so what if you're not very comfortable in the ocean as it is, should you consider scuba? I thought it would make it natural
arman sesar You should be comfortable in the water, and should be a good swimmer
Charles Xu actually since i posted that comment i have now obtained my open water certification and i have to say you don't necessarily need to be a good swimmer to try scuba, i struggled very much on the 200 yard swim test at the pool, but being it the ocean, salt water and what not, with over 7mm of neoprene all around you alone allows for an easy float without ever having to tread much at all, of course you having fins on also greatly increases your directive abilities and makes staying on the surface a piece of cake if all else fails, and last but not least aside from rare occasions which you may not be able to fill up your bc for one reason or another, your bc is always be there as a part of your life support system to keep you afloat whenever you need it, of course you must already know these things but i thought i reply for the record just incase anyone is interested to know what my pwrsonal experience was, however being in shape is my number one recommendation but again, not mandatory.
arman sesar Great to hear arman congrats on your open water certification!
Unfortunately, some of the information in this video is false. This can create life threatening situations. Please remember, you MUST take a class with PADI or NAUI to get your certification. You cannot learn from a 6 minute video. The amount of knowledge required as a diver takes nearly a week to learn. Not including the textbook that is given before hand (which took me 1.5 weeks to finish) Rental shops will NOT rent equipment to you without a certification. So don't hold back, get certified!
Tht wasn't an anemony fish!! Tht was a nemo fish!
You were probably kidding, but just in case: Nemo WAS an anemonefish; an Amphiprion ocellaris, also known as an anemone clownfish. They, along with other anemonefish, get their common name because they swim in and amongst sea anemones.
SeikiBrian true.
same thing
Pakai sewaktu sangat dasar baju
i am 12 i have a advanced diver certificate and btw it is only 700 dollars
SO HARD TO LISTEN TO OVER THE LITTLE JINGLE GOING ON.
Can't hear you. Music? Weak voice.
1:04 "...then do a quarter turn back."
No! Don't do it! This is an obsolete and dangerous holdover from 1950s-era pillar valves. There is NO reason to turn a valve back from fully turned. All the way on, or all the way off! Period! Full stop! End of story! Why? Because a valve that's 1/4 from fully turned may be almost fully on but it could also be almost fully off. On the surface the SPG will show full pressure, and a few test breaths won't cause the needle to move, but when you go deep and maximum flow rate is needed you could suddenly realize that the valve is 1/4 from OFF instead of 1/4 from on.
The next time someone tells you to turn your valve back a quarter, ask him or her why. I bet the only reason he or she can come up with is "Because that's how I was taught...(by someone who didn't know why...but was also taught by someone that didn't know why...who was taught by someone else who didn't know why...)."
SeikiBrian U do this because the air valve that u turn can get stuck in the on position!
+ Caleb Audia -- Wrong. People do it because they are stuck in the past and can't think for themselves. There is no reason for doing this; modern valves don't get "stuck" in the on position any more than they get stuck in the off position. It is a dangerous practice that needs to stop. PADI, NAUI, DAN and every other major diving organization no longer recommends the "turn it on then turn it partially off" practice.
I totally agree with your comment. We made this video back when we first started our company, however, after some research on this particular step, it is apparent that people could actually die. I've seen people turn off their tank during buddy checks, then do a quarter-turn on. I always check people's tanks and tell them why they need to stop doing the quarter-turn.
osvaldo , dont do it , you must take training before you undertake any diving , what are you going to do if you encounter a problem while underwater , even before undertaking a try dive you learn the basics , dont become a statistic !
Do you have to use the dumb background music. Very distracting and unnecessary.
you need to wet the band on the BC when mounting it or it will slip when you dive
at 1:00 he is stepping on his gauges ? never wear a wet suit in a pool ! at 4:00 slowly rotate around in a circle to make sure you will not hit the boat or any thing above you.
i would never dive with Above Blow Tours
I've been diving since 1996 - 5000+ dives. You don't need to wet the BC strap, because I never have. What I do is, I make sure it is on tight each time.
He was stepping on his gauge while opening the valve to prevent the moment the glass may break. However, this good in sandy areas, but next to the pool is fine.
Never wear a wetsuit in a pool? Why? that one is strange. The pools here are so cold in the winter time and EVERYBODY wears a wetsuit in the pool. You should explain why to your logic.
I see your are criticising the video, but this video was a Crash Course Description of How to Learn Diving... you can't put a 4-5 day course into an 8 minute video.
when i was only 13 years old i asked my mother to take me to a dive shop because i wanted to learn scuba diving but when we got there the reason i lost out was i refused to sign my name i hated my name so much i would not sign it when i got to the dive shop all these years later it doe's not matter that i lost out on scuba diving i also lost out on over 2 dozen other things because i refused to sign my name because i hated it so much i have now changed my name to a new name and i love my new name so much better that losing out on all these once in a life time activities doe's not effect me one bit any one else who wants to learn scuba diving do not do it because you will have to sign your name just like me the guy at the dive shop said i had to sign my name to join but i refused to do so.
Ha you can tell this is old because most BC's come with openings for weights. You rarely use a weightbelt . And the fins are really outdated
I believe we filmed this in 2010, and at that time, we rented this gear from another shop.
Still a worse diver than Neymar.
***** fuck you.
A good diver is always a bad diver. No one is worse than Neymar.
