I just completed the NAUI Intro to Tech, but I feel I missed out on the real substance. Was that due to my instructor (I can't deny I was a bit concerned about my Instructors focus) or was it because this was only an Intro Course?
My primary desire for Tech is to improve my skill sets and to gain the valuable knowledge that seems only to be attained through Technical Training.
For example: my intuitive understanding of Buddy Diving is articulated in the concepts and demands of Technical Team Management. Eureka!! Why was that not introduced or taught at the Recreational Level?
When it comes to cave or wreck penetration presently I'm not that interested.
However I am aware that I very well may be ready to take that step in the next year or so when I plan a trip to Truk Lagoon or to Island Royal in Northern Michigan.
What I really want is to dive a rebreather with mixed gas in the 100 - 250 fsw
Hey, I wouldn't mind diving a rebreather above 100 fsw all the time.
Would those goal qualify for tech training? And what is the progression to do what I want to do?
I'd like to get at least 70 - 100 dives each year on a rebreather.
There really isn't any one to ask these questions to, so it's good to have a forum like this one.
