Rebreather Skill Refresher
Have you been out of the water for more than 6 months? Do you want to practice skills but want to be sure you are practicing them correctly? Feeling a little unsure of your unit? Let us ease you back into Rebreather diving with a CCR theory and pool refresher.
Availability: Contact us for booking information
We start by meeting at the dive shop where you will gather together your dive kit and run through a Pre assembly & Pre trip check, to make sure you have all the necessary dive kit accounted for. We will also run through the following Rebreather specific items:
- Orientation to the unit
- Basic CCR function
- Gas Analysis
- Tec equipment and CCR setup and checklists
- Diving CCRs and handling potential problems
We use the Olympic pool in Newmarket which has a 4.4m deep end and a shallow end where we can go through a variety of skills. The skills circuit will include:
- Pre dive Checklist and Equipment Donning
- Buddy checklist
- Weight distribution and buoyancy
- High Oxygen
- Low Oxygen
- Cell checks
- Bail out emergencies
- SMB deployment
- Post-dive procedures and disassembly
Pre-requisites:
- Proof of CCR certification
- Must have dived the unit within the last year
Please read and complete the medical statement attached before attending.
Our CCR refresher course includes the dive professional and pool fees. You need to bring your Rebreather, mask, fins, exposure suit and a towel. (Consumables are not included eg: sorb, o2, cells) We will provide practice slates or a link to a PDF of these upon completion of the refresher.
The Course we run at Global Dive is for the Ambient Pressure Diving Inspiration & Evolution or JJ Rebreathers.
