PADI Peak Performance Buoyancy Success

Sub-Mission conducted a PADI Peak Performance Buoyancy Specialty on Sunday as a follow on from our brilliant pool clinics. Astin, James, Chris, Paul, Dawn and Ian found the dives incredibly beneficial as they practiced a variety of techniques to improve their buoyancy. From hovering close to the bottom to using breath control to swim around obstacles.


Sub-Mission staff also spent time ensuring that each student was weighted correctly and that the weights were positioned to give good trim in the water. Following on from the pool clinics some of the students had also been practicing their breathing rhythms and improved their air consumption during the dives. By the end of the two dives, they were also able to easily hold a safety stop mid water. Even Rob from the PADI Advanced Open Water Course joined us for the second dive to complete his Peak Performance Buoyancy Specialty too!
Keep an eye on the blog for our next buoyancy pool clinics if you want to get involved!
