The next edition of Equipment Techniques: everything you’d like to know about gear but are too shy to ask
Space is limited—it will be an intimate and highly hands-on experience
You don’t have to be an engineer—this course is REALLY for everyone (unless, of course, you want to be the one who shows up and says, “Well, something’s hissing… over here… I think…”)
A leaky regulator? A malfunctioning jacket inflator? A bubbling pressure gauge? Have you ever had your gear “fail” right before entering the water?
We invite all divers who want to learn the ins and outs of their gear to join our equipment workshop—the SSI Equipment Techniques course.
During the workshop, under the guidance of experienced instructors, you’ll learn how to perform basic checks and minor repairs on your own scuba gear (if you don’t have your own gear, we’ll lend you ours).
Bring your regulators, BCDs, tanks, and dry suits—together we’ll lay them out, check them, repair them, clean them, and lubricate them...
The workshops are open to anyone interested; no prior knowledge or technical skills are required. Every diver should have a basic understanding of their equipment, be able to diagnose a problem, and know how to fix it if possible.
