our precious environment. Your program will include two open water dives which
may be conducted on the same day.
Some of the topics covered in your PPB program are as follows:
- Peak Performance Buoyancy fundamentals:
- buoyancy check
- fine-tuning buoyancy underwater
- weight position and distribution
- streamlining

in the water)
- visualization techniques prior to dives
