Interested in Tech Diving? Want to see rebreathers and scooters up close? Want to try out a set of doubles? Then come to Lynnhaven Dive Center (Virginia Beach) on Saturday February 3rd, 2007 between 9am-5pm for a Tech Diver open house. LDC and VBTech (our local tech oriented dive club) will have several stations set up to answer ANY questions you may have about tech diving.
Remember tech diving isn't all about going deep. Want to do 45-60 minutes of bottom time on the Morgan (@110 fsw)? Come on by and talk to us.
If you would like to learn more about: Drysuits, Dive Propulsion Vehicles, Rebreathers – DEMO the Dive Rite O2ptima in the pool, Decompression Diving, Cave Diving, etc. drop by and talk to us that day. Most of the people who will be there at the tables are NOT employees of the shop. We’re just tech divers that want to get more people interested in dong the kind of dives we do.
Depending on turnout and safety issues you may be able to demo more than the O2ptima rebreather. We are working on allowing people to demo doubles, drysuits, and possibly some of the scooters.
The stations include:
1.) Exposure protection. You can’t tech dive up here (or most places) without a drysuit to keep you warm for those long deco stops. See what a Bare Nex-Gen looks like with added pockets and cuff rings (ugly…but it keeps me warm). I will be manning this booth and I believe there will be an entire size run of Dive Rite suits to try on.
2.) Tech diver basic personal gear. Learn about back plates/wing setups, doubles, canister lights, etc.
3.) Tech diver advanced gear: Gear lines, cave equipment (primary, jump, gap reels, arrows), wreck gear, artifacts.
4.) Decompression and gas mixes. See decompression software, learn more about different gas mixes, stage bottles, bottom timers and computers.
5.) Diver Propulsion Vehicles. SCOOTERS. We will have two SS scooters, an X-scooter, a Mako, and an Apollo on hand.
6.) REBREATHERS. A few different models will be on hand. Including the new Dive Rite O2ptima.
7.) Cool wreck diving and cave diving videos. If these don’t get you interested in going deep…nothing will.
8.) Transition to tech Diving. Learn about the new SSI Tech Extended Range (TXR) training program and learn more about VBTech. Several tech instructors will be on hand to discuss your training options if you choose to take the next step.
