This course is designed to give a more in depth look at how dive equipment works. It will cover general repairs and maintenance, focusing on "in-field" repairs that are common and easily fixable at a dive site. The course will show students how to do quick repairs and troubleshooting of wetsuits, drysuits, BCD's, regulators, tanks, weight systems, and other essential dive gear. Students will learn simple and easy tips and tricks regarding their dive equipment. This course will not make you a certified technician for servicing dive equipment.

While ownership of dive gear is not required, this course is definitely recommended for anyone who does own their own gear or anyone who is interested in pursuing leadership dive courses. Students should bring any gear that they own to learn about their specific gear.
