PADI Peak Performance Buoyancy Specialty - Pattaya Thailand

If you want to fine-tune your buoyancy and soar over reefs, extend bottom time by reducing air consumption and prolong the life of your dive equipment, the Peak Performance Buoyancy Specialty course is for you. These skills are fundamental in diving. You might wish to take part in a scuba diving marine conservation project or a coral reef check program (offered at Mermaids Dive Center) - without optimal buoyancy skills you'd not be allowed near the survey. Having great buoyancy allows you to scuba dive with confidence.

PPB is also a skill that is required to be mastered as a basic skill for technical wreck diving, cave diving, reef conservation, and generally to enjoy diving overall. Diving is no fun when crashing in to the sand!

What do I need to start?

What will I do?

During your Peak Performance Buoyancy Specialty course, you'll use PADI's Basic Weighting Guidelines to determine the correct amount of weight. Then you'll practice the fundamentals of peak performance buoyancy during two open water dives, including the buoyancy check, fine-tuning buoyancy underwater, weight positioning for trim, streamlining and visualization. Mermaids dive instructors set up a small underwater obstacle course to make the skills more challenging.
