Basic Skills Demonstration: Navigation 1 -- Beginners Star Course

Описание: This is a Basic Skills demonstration for Navigation 1 -- the "Beginner's Star Course".

ALL divers must know how to navigate, and during your basic Open Water course, we teach you both Terrain Association navigation, and Dead Reconning (use of a compass) navigation following a reciprocal heading to Return to Entry (RTE).

During our Advanced Open Water course, we teach divers how to navigate underwater point-to-point using a compass. We don't do any "square" or "triangle" patterns here (which do nothing to teach you how to actually navigate).

Here you can see our Navigation 1 course. This is our beginners course, which forces divers to traverse long distances over terrain in limited visibility. This requires they learn how to shoot an azimuth and follow a heading, staying on course despite currents and tides, to find their targets.

Our Navigation 2 course is our advanced navigation course, which forces divers to traverse long distances while remaining at an exact depth up in the blue to find suspended targets without any visual references at all (can't see the bottom or the surface or anything but blue in all directions).

What skills would you like to see demonstrated next?
