The Art of Underwater Communication

It’s always interesting to watch two divers communicate underwater. Couples are the most fun to watch communicate underwater. They develop their own language; many times that language ends up being more profane than effective. However, the benefits of being able to communicate underwater are significant and can increase the safety and enjoyment of any dive. Many people are intimidated about learning a new language. However there is a system that is quick, fun and effective. It is easy to expand your underwater vocabulary. SeaSigns is your ticket to sharing your Scuba diving adventure!

SeaSigns is the inexpensive alternative to solving communication issues underwater. Throwing money at technology like full face masks with communications is an expensive and not always reliable attempt at communicating underwater. Any Open Water Diver can learn, in just a few short hours, enough vocabulary to share the excitement and increase safety levels while Scuba diving. SeaSigns is a growing system of approximately 150 words that can be combined to communicate thousands of phrases and sentences underwater. The SeaSigns system was created by divers for divers and compliant with American Sign Language. With SeaSigns you won’t be missing out on what your buddy sees, trying to read illegible scribbling on a slate, or surfacing early to resolve the simplest of problems. Knowing SeaSigns means you are a better dive buddy!

The SeaSigns System is further aided by proprietary memory aids to assist in a fun way to remember signs. The student manual, DVD and flashcards give each SeaSigns student plenty of knowledge development tools to help learn and retain the underwater language. SeaSigns Instructors are trained to teach SeaSigns students in about 4 hours and to make it fun and exciting for the students learning the system. New SeaSigns communicators are awarded a BCD tag to proudly don so other SeaSigns users can quickly identify them. However, most divers pick up two SeaSigns buddies underwater. It’s obvious when two people are actively communicating, with the SeaSigns system underwater. The smiles can be seen a hundred feet away.

The best use of the system is watching instructors and divemasters communicate with each other. It looks very professional and makes everyone diving with these professionals feel safer. It doesn’t take very long after the dive for folks who were with these dive professionals asking how they can learn SeaSigns too. As a matter of safety, professionalism and expanding their business, every shop owner should incorporate SeaSigns into their staff training.
