12 What are the skills to test the AOW diving card?

1, the first is the institution selection:

Leisure diving mainly includes the following contents:

CUA (China diving association)

CMAS (world diving Federation)

PADI (Professional Diving Coaches Association)

national association of underwater instructors

International Union of Diving Schools

International scuba diving school

Technical diving includes:

PSAI (international professional diving association)

GUE (Global Underwater Explorer)

Technical Divers International Organization

International nitrogen-oxygen mixture diving and technical diver

ANDI (American organization of nitrogen and oxygen divers)

Anyway, one by one, most of my friends who play diving around me are PADI, and they have a good reputation. PADI is the abbreviation of professional association of diving instructors. PADI has more than 65,438+033,500 professionals in 65,438+080 countries and regions around the world, and its diving license is recognized worldwide, which makes PADI the largest diving training institution in the world. Since it is the largest in the world, there is no choice but to be recognized by any country.

2, the choice of learning courses:

OW is the abbreviation of open water diver, and Chinese is the junior diver in open water. The diving depth is limited to18m. The study time is generally 4 days.

AOW is the abbreviation of senior open water diver, and Chinese is senior open water diver. The diving depth is limited to 30 meters. This course provides participants with different professional diving training, such as deep diving, boat diving, underwater sailing and night diving. Aow can only be tested after ow, and the learning time is 2 days. If you study with ow, it is 6 days.

3. Course arrangement

OW course arrangement:

Day 1 day: After arriving at the dive school, watch the video from afternoon to evening, start learning the theoretical lessons of Units 1 to 5, and finish the exercises. You can study online in advance, and you will be exhausted on the first day of reading theory.

The next day: swimming training starts at the swimming pool at eight o'clock in the morning. The coach will take the students to complete swimming and floating skills until 12. Practice scuba skills in the swimming pool at 2 pm, and practice in the swimming pool with all the equipment. The end time depends on the learning progress.

Day 3: Get together at 7: 00 a.m. and complete two dives, that is, complete the swimming pool skills in the ocean. When it's finished, the coach will take you for a walk under the sea hhh. At 2 o'clock in the afternoon, I studied in the theory class and ended the theory class exam.

Day 4: Get together at 7: 00 a.m. to finish two dives. At noon 12, the whole ow course is over, and you can leave by boat in the afternoon.

AOW course arrangement:

Day 1 day: the theory class starts at 9: 00 in the morning, two dives are completed in the afternoon, and one night dive is completed in the evening.

The next day: set off at 7: 00 in the morning and complete two dives. You can choose, such as top neutral buoyancy, fish species identification, underwater photography and so on. Upon completion, aow will graduate.

Hyperoxia course arrangement:

The whole aerobic course only needs one day to complete, with theoretical study of aerobic course at 10: 00 in the morning and two dives at 12. Or you can switch two of them to high-oxygen diving when learning aow, which is cheaper.

Other EFR (first aid course) and rescue (rescue course) are compulsory courses for diving instructors. Those who don't plan to be diving instructors don't think it is necessary to learn, so I won't introduce them in detail. Personally, I suggest studying for 6 days directly. The course is not difficult and interesting.

4. Precautions for diving (17 is very important)

Remember that you can't fly after 18 hours of deep diving;

Ow and aow can study together, 4+2=6 days, which is cheaper than studying alone;

The biggest difference between ow and aow is that one can dive 18m and the other can dive 30m.

Aow can dive at night after learning, that is, you can get on the boat, but ow can't;

Taobao can buy a set of snorkeling equipment. It is recommended to buy diving glasses and breathing tubes. I didn't buy a frog net. I feel it takes up too much space. If the box is big enough and the clothes are small enough, you can try hhh.

Remember to bring seasickness medicine when you get seasick;

Buy a pair of diving socks, Taobao didn't buy them, and the fins provided by the diving school may not fit;

Diving goggles are prone to fog under water, so apply some soapy water before entering the water, preferably a shower gel for bathing your baby, which will not hurt your eyes;

Learn to dive together, diving has a companion system, and a reliable and familiar companion makes your life more secure;

Theoretically, a diver should be able to swim 200 meters with his bare hands or 300 meters with snorkeling tools, and he can stay on the water for 10 minutes, but in fact, he can learn to dive without swimming, so don't care if he can swim, the key is not afraid of water;

Eat less big meals before diving, and it will be bad if you throw up underwater;

Remember to hit the meter when taking a taxi in Thailand, just press the meter and then take the navigation to find the driver. Most drivers are unreliable, you know;

Mosquito repellent water can be bought locally with good results;

It is suggested that the above technical terms you don't understand can be Baidu;

Don't be afraid of the theoretical exam, it's very watery! Yes, but learn from hhh for your own safety.

The peak season is in winter and summer vacation.
