Technical diving : Just do it! Knowledge is a smart choice! |
What made me take the step to technical diving and what’s in a name? After a certain amount of courses and not wanting to be a dive professional, I became a Master Scuba Diver and traveled the world as a underwater and wildlife photographer. Health issues kept me in the snorkel zone for some years and my perception was that health limited me. Until I discovered tech training and more control about my diving dissolved my limits! Sidemount diver and full cave certification were my rewards for stepping outside of my comfort zone! |
