All rights reserved. www.scubaguru.com 2 10 Mistakes Divers Make And How To Prevent Them - Tec Clark About the Author Raised in South Florida, Thomas E. Clark ("Tec") became pro1icient at skin and scuba diving at an early age. At the age of two, Tec impressed family members with his af1inity towards water. Tec's mother, a swim coach and lifeguard, taught him how to swim, and he eventually became a competitive swimmer. Tec's appreciation for the ocean was developed through freQuent deep-sea 1ishing trips with his grandfather. At the age of twelve Tec made his 1irst scuba dive with a family friend. Soon thereafter, he became a certi1ied diver and immediately pursued advanced ratings. In 1988 while attending the University of Florida, Tec enrolled in an Assistant Instructor course to earn "an easy two credits." But much more came from that course and it was not long before Tec became an instructor for the University of Florida Academic Diving Program (UFADP). Instructing at the nation's largest university dive training program Tec gained experience teaching in auditoriums of 200-plus students and certifying hundreds of divers per year. Prior to graduation, Tec moved back to South Florida and immersed himself in diving by being a divemaster and teaching scuba as an instructor for Orbit Marine Sports in Pompano Beach. In addition to instructing and divemastering, Tec was a volunteer public safety diver for the Broward County Sheriff's Of1ice. At this same time, Tec's passion for breath-hold diving grew daily as he enjoyed freediving off of dive boats and nearby beaches. In 1990, Tec returned to the University of Florida and became Managing Director of the UFADP. Through staf1ing and directing numerous instructor training courses, he honed a specialty in instructor development and training. Tec gained professional credentials with multiple diving organizations such as YMCA, NAUI, PADI, CMAS, DAN and DRI. www.scubaguru.com 3 10 Mistakes Divers Make And How To Prevent Them - Tec Clark SubseQuently, Tec received a Bachelor of Science in Recreation from the University of Florida, with an emphasis in Leisure Services Management. In the summer of 1996, Tec completed an internship with the YMCA Scuba Program headQuarters in Atlanta, Georgia. He continued working for the YMCA Scuba Program as a consultant responsible for special projects and development, then advanced to Assistant Director in 1997. In 1998, Tec became the National Associate Director for the YMCA of the USA Scuba Program. During his tenure at the YMCA Scuba Program, Tec was responsible for dramatic increases in skin and scuba diving participation among YMCA's nationally. He also served as Chair of the Recreational Scuba Training Council (RSTC) Medical Committee, Chair of the American Alliance for Health, Physical Education, Recreation and Dance (AAHPERD) Underwater Activities Committee, and Board Member of the United States of America Underwater Federation. As an international freediving judge for CMAS, Tec judged the national record dive of Mehgan Heaney-Grier and the world record freshwater dive of Tanya Streeter. In 1998 Tec and US Freediving champion Mehgan Heaney-Grier founded the 1irst United States Freediving Team. Tec is a founding member of the United States Apnea Association (USAA) and served on its Board of Directors for two terms. In 2002, Tec was Captain of the US Freediving Team at the Paci1ic Cup of Freediving where the US Women's Team took 1irst place honors. In 2005 Tec became a forensic diving accident investigator for Dive and Marine Consultants International. In this role Tec was commissioned by dive industry defense attorneys to investigate diving incidents. In 2006 Tec founded ScubaGuru.com. Complete with articles and educational videos, ScubaGuru.com remains a resource website for scuba divers. Also in 2006 Tec joined Pro Dive International, an internationally known instructor training school, as Vice President of Program Development, then COO and eventually CEO. During his tenure at Pro Dive, Tec was responsible for overseeing operations of training, charters, and retail at one of the most chosen career development centers in the US. In 2008, Tec founded a diving ministry called Reef Ministries. www.scubaguru.com 4 10 Mistakes Divers Make And How To Prevent Them - Tec Clark Tec has appeared as a diving expert on A&E, The Learning Channel and The Outdoor Life Network.

  • No Limits Freediving
    1 No Limits Freediving "The challenges to the respiratory function of the breath-hold diver' are formidable. One has to marvel at the ability of the human body to cope with stresses that far exceed what normal terrestrial life requires." Claes Lundgren, Director, Center for Research and Education in Special Environments A woman in a deeply relaxed state floats in the water next to a diving buoy. She is clad in a figure-hugging wetsuit, a dive computer strapped to her right wrist, and another to her calf. She wears strange form-hugging silicone goggles that distort her eyes, giving her a strange bug-eyed appearance. A couple of meters away, five support divers tread water near a diving platform, watching her perform an elaborate breathing ritual while she hangs onto a metal tube fitted with two crossbars. A few meters below the buoy, we see that the metal tube is in fact a weighted sled attached to a cable descending into the dark-blue water. Her eyes are still closed as she begins performing a series of final inhalations, breathing faster and faster. Photographers on the media boats snap pictures as she performs her final few deep and long hyperventilations, eliminating carbon dioxide from her body. Then, a thumbs-up to her surface crew, a pinch of the nose clip, one final lungful of air, and the woman closes her eyes, wraps her knees around the bottom bar of the sled, releases a brake device, and disappears gracefully beneath the waves. The harsh sounds of the wind and waves suddenly cease and are replaced by the effervescent bubbling of air being released from the regulators of scuba-divers.

It was the purpose of this study to determine if this premise was true. To make this determination, correlations were computed among various pool and open water skill ratings. The author wishes to express his appreciation to Dr. Lowell caneday for his guidance and assistance throughout the course of this study. Appreciation is also expressed to the other committee members, Dr. Betty Abercrombie, Dr. Betty Edgley, and Dr. John Gardiner for their assistance in the preparation of the final manuscript. A note of special thanks is given to Dr. Ken Rose for allowing the author to use his scuba students as subjects in the study. Thanks are also extended Dr. Steve Edwards for his help in constructing the research instrument.

    Greetings, Recreational agencies teaching and promoting PSDiving are not what we want to see and represent many steps backward for Well, it is official – PADI has entered the PSD training field. those of us who have proclaimed our diving to be beyond They recently announced their program at DEMA. I was out of recreational. We as individuals and some of the ABCs involved the country at that time and was unable to attend DEMA but have proclaimed we are professional divers but considering all have since heard from a number of folks who did attend. that has gotten us, we are shouting into the wind. The concerns about PADI entering the field are many fold. But So for now, I think I am going to join the masses. I am going despite what you might think about it, they only did what every to sit back and watch for a while and see what happens. I have other agency that teaches Public Safety Diving has done. They a pretty good idea of what is coming and expect PADI to have recognized a need and a market and developed a program to an immediate impact on the field starting no later than Spring fill the need. There are some who criticize this but they forget 2010. I think we will probably see either some consolidated that ALL of the agencies make money and ALL of them are for efforts put forth for a PSD Consensus standard by the existing profit entities. PSD training agencies OR a total disregard for that and efforts to protect their own market shares that will likely result in an Without a national standard or an agency consensus standard, even bigger separation in cooperative effort.

  • YMCA of the USA SCUBA START-UP KIT
    YMCA of the USA SCUBA START-UP KIT Many people both young and old yearn for underwater exploration. The mystery and fantasy of what lies beneath the water’s surface have intrigued countless civilizations. Today, through equipment designed by Jacques Cousteau, millions of divers participate in underwater exploration through the use of SCUBA (Self-Contained Underwater Breathing Apparatus) equipment. To participate in SCUBA diving one must first be properly trained by a certified SCUBA instructor. After training that includes academic study, physical skills development and training in actual diving environments (open water), the diver receives a SCUBA certification card, also known as a “c-card.” There are many SCUBA certification agencies worldwide, the majority of which are in the United States. They are responsible for developing and maintaining SCUBA training and certification standards that their instructors are to follow when teaching students any type of SCUBA-related course. The certification agencies also are responsible for issuing SCUBA c-cards after successful training and testing has taken place. Due to a demand for safety, YMCA of the USA introduced its SCUBA Program training standards in 1959. YMCA SCUBA led the diving industry with several firsts including the first national SCUBA instructor training course, and the first SCUBA rescue course. In the 40 years since our inception, YMCA SCUBA continues to provide the highest level of community-oriented education for divers and instructors based on the principles of the YMCA triangle: the Spirit, the Mind and the Body. These principles are the core philosophy of the YMCA, and YMCA SCUBA bases all training and programs on these ideals.
