Cressi F1 Mask and Dry Snorkel

The F1 Mask is a very cool new product form Cressi. This light weight, single lens and frameless mask has a reduced volume to make it easier for divers to clear water while diving which means we can have more fun enjoying the underwater world instead of worrying about the leaking and discomfort of the mask. Additionally Cressi designed this special button on the side of the mask skirt for easier strap adjustment. Cressi F1 comes in different colours including black, white, clear and pink.

Cressi Dry Snorkel  is the first submersible in the Cressi collection. Dry top splash guard eliminates water entry during rough seas and when performing free diving it keeps the water out from the snorkel which also makes it easier to use when back on the surface. With traditional snorkels upon surfacing lots of water must be cleared from the tube before taking the breath.

The Replaceable Angled Mouthpiece and Corrugated Tube Section are both made from Hypoallergenic Silicone adding Comfort and Function. A Quick Release Snorkel Keeper and Ergonomic Contoured Shape make this one great snorkel.

Cressi Freediving Equipment Philippines

Freediving is a great way of enjoying underwater world without the need of using more complex scuba diving equipment and training that is required. With just a mask, snorkel, fins and of course a little bit of the sea almost anybody can enjoy this activity. In the Philippines most of the reefs begin very shallow with amazing corals and marine life therefore freediving is a must. Since there is no age restriction, the whole family including children can enjoy breath hold diving. For those seeking a certification PADI offer various courses.

Here we have some good products from Cressi like NANO Mask, CORSICA Snorkel and GARA Fins which are very much recommended for recreational and more advanced freedivers. These products are composed of light materials and have been tested to make sure of your safety. The NANO mask has a very low profile, GARA fins have a comfortable foot pocket which is very important to fully enjoy the activity.

Cressi freediving products are available from all Asia Divers Dive Supply branches in the Philippines. Please give us a call or drop an email and we will be happy to answer all you questions and recommendations. Freediving is fun activity for the whole family. Make sure to use the right gear.

Safety First - Surface Marker Buoy

 Every diver sooner or later will find out that having some sort of signaling surface device after finishing the dive is a must! How many times divers are caught in a strong current, missed the boat and suddenly end up in the blue. A whistle may not be enough. Surface Marker Buoy (SMB) or Delayed Surface Marker Buoy (DSMB) comes in yellow or orange and also different sizes. They can very easily fit in to any standard BCD pocket. Once deployed from underwater or surface SMB can be spotted by a boat crew from very far.

Lift Bag from Surface Marker is very popular among technical divers. They come in different sizes of 25kg and 65kg. Every tec diver must be prepared for the worst therefore having additional emergency lift or support while making long drift deco stops is very important. No short cuts in technical diving. These lift bags fit very easily in to most of shorts with pockets.

Dry Bags are very useful for every diver while boat diving. Long boat day trips, unpredictable weather, rain, storms can ruin all our electronics like cell phone, ipad or some books. The bags are very stylish, simple and definitely 100% water proof. Even when going to the beach for a nice sun bath having one of those is very recommended. Remember that not only the water but also the sand can get inside our valuable electronics. With Dry Bag your worries are over.

Also available, Finger Spool, Pocket Buoy & Webbing Deployment System

All mentioned Surface Marker products are available in all Asia Divers branches.

Chasper's sister - PADI Open Water Diver

How many of us dive professionals have the chance to dive with the family or how many of us have the chance to teach the family how to dive? I guess Chasper from Calypso Diving is one of the lucky ones. Recently he assisted in PADI Open Water Diver Course in which his own sister was the student? How about that? Not only he Lives his Scuba Dream but now his sister is getting hooked in to diving too. Here in this picture she already interacts with cute little fishes during her open water training dives.

Sharing alternate source is one of the very important skills to master in PADI Open Water Diver Course. Here in this picture under the direct supervision of PADI Instructor Chasper and his sister are sharing the octopus while swimming. Important thing to remember while performing this exercise is to hold hands and keep an eye contact on the low on air diver. It looks like our student divers did a great job with this skill. Open water dives are coming up next!

Live the Scuba Dream with Chasper - PADI Rescue Diver Course

The winner of Live the Scuba Dream, Chasper from Switzerland looks very busy during his PADI Rescue Diver Course at Calypso Diving from Boracay. In this picture Chasper is performing in-water rescue breathing while towing the unconscious diver! This is one of the most important skills to master in the Rescue course where providing the in-water ventilation as soon as possible may actually save life of the victim. PADI Rescue course is full of emergency situations that student divers need to master in order to get more confidence and act when necessary.

Tired Diver Tow or Push is a very useful skill from the PADI Rescue course. How often divers get cramps after the diving? I think a lot and helping them to get to the shore or boat safely means a lot. Please remember to do this skill correctly the rescuer and the tired diver should be positively buoyant to make it easier so make sure that the first thing to do is to inflate the BCD. In this picture rescue student Mimie is performing tired diver push on Chasper which may be easier for rescuers who are smaller than the victims.
