Information:
Our Naui Intro to Tech program offers a Fundamental
approach to refining and mastering the rudimentary
skills such as Buoyancy, Fin Technique/Propulsion
Methods, Improving Diver Trim, Breaking BAD
Habits, Diver Communication, Problem Solving
abilities, Risk Management, Dive team Planning
and team communications, Dive Equipment Streamlining,
Rescue Techniques, Horizontal ascents, descents,
valve manipulation, air sharing and more.
The Naui Intro to Tech program also offers
divers a look deeper into diving science,
physics, physiology and decompression theory
including the NAUI RGBM decompression model.
Divers will be introduced to
a safer, more versatile and beneficial equipment
configuration (NTEC) allowing divers take
advantage of the benefits of diving with a
long hose (5-7ft), a streamlined back floatation
buoyancy system which is the heart of the
system, a reel and lift bag for midwater ascents
and drifting deco stops, proper light requirements
and more.
All gear is designed to be streamlined
using a Hogarthian approach revolving around
the KISS principal to give divers the freedom
to improve their skills.
This course is conducted only
over a 3-4 days making it a short program.
Students must understand that these skills
might not be able to be mastered without practice
outside of the Naui Intro to Tech program.
All training dives are video
taped using one of our Ikelite
or Light
& Motion u/w Video System so divers
can see themselves in the water and see the
learning curve from dive 1 to dive 4, as well
as pool training sessions. Dives are conducted
in shallow water which affords us maximum
bottom time for skill development.
Students who cannot commit to
3-4 intensive days can also complete the program
over 2 weekends. Add $100 to the course cost.
This course is intended for
divers of any skill level from Open Water
Diver to Open Water Instructor and will benefit
all who take it, especially divers wishing
to progress into more serious aspects of diving
requiring this type of discipline, comfort
and finesse in the water.
Graduates of this program will
also be able to enroll in more advanced programs
with the skills and confidence to succeed
in future courses including technical diving
courses such as our Technical Diver Level
1 program or Cavern/Cave Diver as you'll already
have some of the knowledge and skills required
to participate in these specialized areas
of diving.
