  • Episode 2: Diving is NOT inherently safe...or is it? (Part 1)

    This is part 1 of our conversation about Safety.

    There is a lot of content out there about safe diving and how to react in case of emergencies, but are those articles and even courses realistic?

    We share our thoughts on what we consider to be a safe diver in the real world, as well as some stories from real dive emergencies that sheds light into why it is so important to not be complacent and make safety a priority.

  • Episode 1: Let's talk about these Dive Agencies

    For our inaugural episode, we discuss Dive Agencies, their role in our industry, and the things they do well and not so well.

    We will explore whether selecting a specific agency for training matters, certification reciprocity, digital training resources, and whether agencies should venture outside dive training into travel and SCUBA diving vacations.
