    Thank you for this video! I haven't dived in two years, and although I remember the hand signals and other important things, I always forget exactly how to set up my equipment! This vid is great and reminded me of everything I needed.

    Is there a test you can take to become certified instead of paying almost 1000 for the class

  12. BradBaldwintheDrumm says

    Thank you sir, that's exactly what I wanted to see! I'm coming back to the sport and had some questions on the current gear thanks!

  14. Mark Barry says

    Very informative video. i am BSAC qualified ocean diver, the only thing i would like to add to this video is that when opening the tank valve the pressure gauge should be pointed somewhere safe. I place my gauge against the side of the tank. This is in case the gauge has sustained damage during storage as there is still the full tank pressure fed in there and there could be (a tiny) chance of blowing the gauge glass out, hence point it somewhere safe.

  16. Andrej Kazakiv says

    Actually, go ahead, what you want to do.. Sounds really bad you shouldn't use these words. But really nice video.

  17. Jeff G says

    I thank you for this vid. I got certified a year ago just prior to going to Cancun to do a dive. Haven't gone since and wanted to make sure I refresh as much as possible. Watching this vid made a lot of the training come back to me, and am now confident that I will be able to put the gear on properly and not look like the noob that I actually am. As for the negative comments from the people that appear to know it all, I have checked some of your pages and haven't found a better vid.

  18. Pfsif says

    Actually is use way too much.

  19. cantsolvesudokus says

    @OffRoadRN lol thx for answer, good I had no chanche to go diving in the last 3 months…

  20. OffRoadRN says

    @cantsolvesudokus Sure, you can fill the tank with 100% O2. It won't be liquid, of course. And of course, 100% O2 at anything greater than 20 feet is toxic, and you'll shortly begin to seize, lose conciousness, and drown.
    There are easier ways to commit suicide…

  21. Steven Simpson says

    NEVER over tighten the first stage, only finger tighten it

  25. Jimmy Walters says

    I am an AOW. I now have 176 dives. I got certified when I was 10. And i dive atleast 10 times a month

  26. Michael j Tandy says

    I'm 22, In the UK, Full PADI Open Water Scuba Instructor and Specialty Instructor,
    SSI Master Diver & BSAC Dive Leader.

    I'm not great with accents but if you (Guy in Video) are American or even Canadian I've never heard them call it a Vest, It is and always will be a BCD or Stab Jacket.

    Always Hold the Pressure Gauge away from you, pressed against the tank, face down or face down on the floor.
    And long deep breaths with the Regulator in your mouth, not quick breaths like that.

  27. Jimmy Walters says
