PADI Peak Performance Buoyancy Course

The PPB course book and DVD have been revised, we are now offering the new updated course from July 2011.

What is neutral buoyancy? Scuba divers like to be neutrally buoyant so they neither sink nor float. It can be a tricky thing. Divers who have mastered the highest performance levels in buoyancy stand apart. You’ve seen them underwater - they glide effortlessly, use less air and ascend, descend or hover, almost as if by thought. They interact gently with aquatic life and affect their surroundings minimally. The PADI Peak Performance Buoyancy course refines the basic skills you learned as a PADI Open Water Diver and elevates them to the next level

On your PPB course you will learn:

How to perfect your equipment configuration so you’re perfectly balanced in the water
Nuances in determining weight so you’re not too light nor too heavy by even a slight degree
How to streamline to save air and move smoothly through the water
How to hover effortlessly in both a vertical position and a horizontal positions

This is also a Seastyle recommended program if considering the PADI Digital underwater photography program
