Download or read book The Recreational Diver written by Achim R. Schlöffel and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2015-09-23 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Recreational Diver was chosen with care. We think that „recreational diving“ describes our activity much better than „Sport diving“ as it is for people who want to become divers and not for those who want to try diving. There is a gap to close. A gab in training, that has been weakened by greed. A gap in the training material that is outdated and a gap in the actual training, that is getting easier and easier, to be able to sell it to an even broader range of potential customers. No matter if they have the physical and mental prerequisites for the sport. It is time for a new training system, where quality is more important than quantity and where the individual is more important that the size of the course. Have a good dive.

Download or read book Dive Computers Insights for Divers Professionals written by Wolfgang Wild and published by epubli. This book was released on 2014-08-28 with total page 199 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the times of the dive tables the promising marketing statement is well known: Our xyz-tables are much more conservative than others. Also dive computers and simulation software for PC and/or tablet assert such claim. What does this suggest and is promised to the diver? Counterproductive to those statements are so-called "product recalls" feared by us as consumers, from which dive computers are not spared. And even the mathematical equations of dive computers – the algorithms – face marked criticism, especially regarding their validation: Have they been tested in real "wet" dives, and if so, how? In this eBook dive computers are evaluated how they perform in the field, specifics of various algorithms are unveiled without pestering the reader with mathematics, and finally some dreams of the future are outlined, to overcome the shortcomings of present-day dive computers. The preliminary assessment of the author is: Today's wrist worn dive computer gadgets have no future – but there are alternatives. Those who are unsure about a clear answer on the following questions should grasp this eBook and reserve some fun time reading it: Q1: What exactly are "deep stops" and what are pros and cons? Q2: Is the Buhlmann ZH-L16C dive computer model really from Professor Bühlmann? Q3: The RGBM model by Bruce Wienke is better than the VPM model – or isn't it? Q4: An ascent rate of 2 feet / 6 meters per minute is certainly better than 6 feet / 18 meters per minute – and easily to accomplish. Correct? Q5: The primary feature of dive computers should be: They need to be yellow! – What? Yellow!? In this eBook author Wolfgang Wild is sharing his long history of experience with the reader which he gained in the training of virtually thousands of both divers and diving instructors worldwide. This eBook is aimed at divers and diving professionals of all diver training associations. Available for iphone, kindle, kobo, sony reader, tolino and tablets in multiple formats.

Download or read book Deep into Deco written by Asser Salama and published by Best Publishing. This book was released on 2018-01-01 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Deep Into Deco, Revised Edition has been fully updated to reflect the latest research outcomes. - Chapter summaries have been added to give a quick overview of each chapter. - A new section on nitrogen and helium kinetics has been added. - Av second appendix was added for calculating the acceleration in post-diving no-fly time associated with breathing surface oxygen. What makes this book truly stunning is that it is not only straightforward, easy-to-read and understand and free from technical jargon, but it also portrays the latest developments and controversial issues in technical diving. From the early history of experimental trial and error to the latest innovations and changes in the decompression arena, Deep Into Deco, Revised Edition brings the science into sharp focus. Throughout the book are demonstrations of how deco schedules are calculated in commercial software packages, without elaborating on mathematical equations or source code. Also, a grab-bag of additional points of interest that contribute to our current understanding of decompression theory is explored in detail. This book is a must read for any diver looking at understanding decompression theory, how it evolved, what it accomplished and where the latest research is heading.

Download or read book The Theory of Recreational Scuba Diving written by Marc Luxen and published by . This book was released on 2018-02-04 with total page 83 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We wrote this book to help you understand what is happening and why it happens before, during, and after a dive. Many of you will be preparing for an exam to become a dive professional. This book tells you all you need to know, no more, no less.We will start off easy with a short introduction to the dive environment, where we look at tides, currents, waves, coasts, ecosystems. Why are there usually two tides per day, but only one Moon? Why do currents follow a certain pattern over the globe? What makes waves big, how do they break at the beach? How many different types of coasts are there, and why? How do marine biologists talk about the marine life they study and describe?Next, we go on with the physics of diving. We will keep the numbers to a minimum, and we promise: no formulas. We will show you how to use your experience as a diver and your common sense to understand and calculate everything. If you have a fear of physics and calculations, as we know many of you have, we will cure you from it. Give it a go. You will calculate buoyancy, air consumption, pressure, and partial pressure with a smile on your face. Well, perhaps that is too much to ask. Without sweating, let's settle for that.Next, we have a look at equipment, but because manufactures can give you so much more information than we can, and because we know you love shopping or looking at brochures, we keep it to the minimum. We tell you about tanks and tank maintenance, burst disks, balanced and unbalanced regulators, venture valves, pilot valves, up-stream and down-stream valves, and types of depth gauges.After this, we are ready to understand what happens in your body when you go diving. In the physiology of diving, we will have a look at blood, hearts, lungs, ears, and all the things that can go wrong. More importantly, we will give you the knowledge you need to respond when things go wrong, and even more importantly, how to avoid things going wrong. That does not mean you won't need an Emergency First Responder course. You do, because you need skills and practice. But you will know all you need to know.Finally, we can bring it together and talk about decompression theory, how tables and dive computers work. You will know how compartments, half times, M-values are used to make models for your tables or computers to keep you safe.We did even more. We made an on-line course with videos and many more exercises to help you study. This is also the place where people all over the world taking this course help each other with questions and answers.
