BuoyancyQuest: is a SCULL FREE ZONE!
"LOOK....NO HANDS!" has always been "OUR MOTTO"
SCULLING is the Hallmark of a Substandard Diver!
IF you are diving in board shorts and a rash guard or in a shorty wetsuit or any suit of 5 mm or less....
AND you are wearing gloves....
IT probably isn't because your hands are cold!
DON'T WEAR GLOVES ON WARM WATER DIVES!
Just wear a sign that says: "MY BUOYANCY CONTROL SUCKS!"
     "We put the cart back behind the horse....we offer fundamentals only!"  
BuoyancyQuest: ONE TIME ~ ONE WORKSHOP....only in COZUMEL MEXICO

       6X MORE DIVING THAN IS OFFERED BY MOST BUOYANCY CLINICS!
NO "Mickey Mouse" Buoyancy Control C-CARDS! & NOT PP SKILLS!
DANGLIES & HOSE HALOS are featured prominently in almost every dive magazine photo.
 DON'T  LOOK LIKE A DIVE MAGAZINE DIVER!
SCULLING, DANGLIES, HOSE HALOS & WEARING GLOVES ON WARM WATER DIVES....
  TELLS EVERYONE  WHAT "YOU" DON'T KNOW
ABOUT SCUBA DIVING!

BuoyancyQuest's workshop is built on the model of our successful Cozumel Group Trips.

It is simply a "FUN FILLED" dive travel experience that includes;  
"a painless"
FROG KICK & Buoyancy Control Clinic
A fundamentals course without the pseudo tech images.
We don't promise to  put you in a  dry suit with doubles on your back looking a scooter in the................................propeller.
AND we won't even mention  rebreathers.
In fact we are not about promoting more expensive toys.
We are about promoting SKILLS!
We're not offering more suspect credentials ; i.e. plastic cards.
We do not believe that plastic credentials and expensive equipment define you as a diver.


WE BELIEVE THAT THE REWARD THAT YOU SEEK SHOULD BE A REAL AND NOTICEABLE IMPROVEMENT OF YOUR BASIC SKILLS!

We can show you a "less is more" equipment configuration, how to be more streamlined and how to use your respiration as a tool to fine tune your position within the water column. We can show you how to frog kick. Frog Kick is a valuable option in place of the often tiring and destructive flutter kick. You can expect to improve your gas consumption and bottom time if you embrace and master these foundation skills.

"Your SKILLS define your diving!"

 ( NOT YOUR EQUIPMENT )
 

SOME EQUIPMENT CONSIDERATIONS
BUOYANCY CONTROL WORKSHOP
SCUBA FUNDAMENTALS WORKSHOP
TRUE: Most recreational divers are overweighted. That was how they learned to dive. We'll show you how to take off the extra pounds.

TRUE: If you use a bigger tank you will have more gas. We'll show you how to do a longer dive with a smaller tank.

FALSE: If you just dive more your buoyancy will improve (as if by magic). Look around....most divers only improve upon bad habits.

FALSE: Every instructor and assistantant instructor for that four letter agency is a buoyancy expert.  We'd be surprised if 10% were!

TRUE: Breath control along with not sculling and proper weight management is the key to good buoyancy.

 "Everyone will tell you that!"

THE IMPORTANT QUESTION IS: WHO CAN SHOW YOU THAT.... UNDERWATER?

"THOSE OTHER GUYS"__THE ONES FROM THE MEGA INTERNATIONAL TRAINING AGENCIES
( show their instructor numbers and other credentials and "talk the talk"__and award plastic cards )

YOU PROBABLY WON'T GET TO SEE THEIR MOVIES....BUT IF YOU DO:

"WATCH THEIR HANDS!"
  "SCUBA INSTRUCTORS WHO SCULL SET A POOR EXAMPLE!"
"SCULLING & KNEELING while wearing doubles and a stage bottle.....IS A DISGRACE!"
( ESPECIALLY IF YOU ARE TAKING OR TEACHING A "DEEP TECHNICAL INSTRUCTOR COURSE" )
