The PADI ReActivate or Scuba Tune-Up with GO DIVE BRISBANE
Has it been a while since you’ve been scuba diving? Do you feel like your scuba skills and knowledge are a bit rusty? The Refresher is just what you need. It reacquaints you with diving so that you're back to feeling comfortable in the underwater world in less than a day.
This is particularly useful in Queensland, where local legislation requires divers need to complete a diving refresher if they have been out of the water for some time - pertaining to their experience (logbook as proof).
Here with Go Dive, to accommodate the state legislation, to dive with us you do need to show proof of recent diving relevant to your experience level. If you fall outside these timelines, you will need to participate in a refresher program prior to booking on our regular dive days/trips.
You need to complete a refresher if you fall into the categories below:
The Fun Part
Brush up on your scuba knowledge and skills. Improve your diving ability and get your scuba gear ready for your next scuba vacation or diving holiday.
What you Learn
You go over scuba knowledge you learned during your initial training with the online eLearning program designed for PADI or Non-PADI divers.
For PADI Divers, the online program is called the 'Re-Activate'. For other qualification agencies, it is termed the 'Scuba Tune-Up'. The vital information is covered in both, however as non-PADI divers may not be familiar with PADI RDP Dive tables, the information in the Scuba Tune Up program is broader to cover the use of tables, but not brand specific. You will cover:
Following the completion of the online theory, you will meet your divemaster at the pool, to review the knowledge, and gear assembly & disassembly procedures. After this you will don you equipment where your first dive will be under the supervision of your divemaster, revisiting skills and competencies in the pool. After the dives are complete, you have the opportunity to request for additional skills to brush up on. We offer a special to those that do the refresher with us that they can book onto the boat with in a week of the pool session, free equipment hire, a potential saving of $100. This does not mean you have to be on the boat in that week just book your place on the boat for a time that best suits you.
