Scuba Fundamental

Start Diving the Right Way

De: Simon Pridmore

Narrado por: Simon Pridmore

If you do not yet scuba dive but are thinking of learning, then this book is for you. It takes you from the germ of the idea that you might like to try scuba diving up to the point where you have done around 20 dives.

This is not your standard how-to manual. It is very different. The purpose of Scuba Fundamental is not to teach you how to dive. A dive instructor will do that. But this book will make the learning process much easier. It will help you make the right choices and avoid the pitfalls that await new and uninformed divers coming into the sport. It will also set you well on the road to becoming a capable and competent lifelong diver.

Scuba Fundamental tells you how to make sure you are prepared for a scuba diving course and what a good beginners course should entail. It tells you how to choose a good instructor, how to decide which operators to dive with after you have finished your course and what sort of dives you should be doing when you first start diving.

You will learn the many ways in which diving will change your life and also acquire some extremely valuable advice on the etiquette involved in the sport. Throughout the book you will be entertained, educated and encouraged by anecdotes from people who are now experienced divers but were once beginners too.

There is also an entire section devoted to diving safety, much of which covers vitally important aspects of scuba diving that standard training manuals don't emphasize enough or even leave out completely.

The book's message is: start scuba diving the right way and you will be relaxed and ready for the adventure. You will have more fun, make fewer mistakes and be confident in the fact that you are well informed, have made the best choices and have spent your money wisely.

Beginner diver here…

The well thought out examples and situations that were used to represents the lessons taught were spot on. I have a had bunch of times where, after I surfaced, I would think back to what I did wrong and how the book had mentioned it. Definitely recommend for anyone who considers or wants to start diving.

Excellent induction

Excellent induction. Full of well described examples. Must read for all who want to start adventure with diving.

Amazing book !!!

Loved the book! It answered all sorts of questions that I had not even thought of !

Listen well before your class, but...

chapter 11 was repeated, which means chapter 9 is missing, and I really wanted that chapter.

SCUBA learning made enjoyable

I listened to this book twice! Well read and entertaining! I downloaded all his books.
