PADI's Peak Performance Buoyancy programe is the perfect opportunity to hone your buoyancy skills. Perfect your buoyancy and you will conserve air, energy and our precious environment. Your program will include two open water dives, which may be conducted in one day at either Tarifa or Marina del Este

Some of the topics covered in your PPB program are as follows:

Peak Performance Buoyancy fundamentals:

Buoyancy check

Fine-tuning buoyancy underwater

Weight position and distribution

Streamlining

Visualization

Use of PADI’s Basic Weighting Guidelines
An opportunity to polish buoyancy control beyond the Open Water Diver level:
Positioning and distributing weight for comfort and desired body position (trim in the water)

Visualization techniques prior to dives

Buoyancy checks

Establishing neutral buoyancy during all segments of a dive

Fine-tuning neutral buoyancy underwater

Hovering

The elective Peak Performance Buoyancy Dive conducted during the PADI Advanced Open Water course may be counted toward this specialty at the instructor’s discretion.
