Signals
I recently completed a refresher course, since it has been a while since I have gone diving and wanted to review all the basics before I hit the water again. When I got to the class I realized that I had forgotten all of the hand signals. SO here is a quick review of the basic hand motions when diving. (Click on image below for larger view of signals)
Hey guys my name is Brianna and I love scuba diving. I have only been certified for a year and not living on a tropical island can make it seem like there are not any real opportunities to go diving. However, just because there is not 100 ft visibility does not mean it cannot be fun. I live in Rhode Island and currently go to College at University of Rhode Island. I first became interested in Scuba Diving a few years ago back in high school. I began to talk to family and friends about diving and did not realize how many people I had known were already certified and the experiences they said they had and what an amazing feeling it was to be underwater, was beyond words. I started taking out books and learning more and more about scuba diving, when finally for my graduation gift, my parents signed me up for classes. I was so excited, the minute I put that mask on and took my first breath underwater I was hooked. I wanted the dive right in (no pun intended) and never stop. A lot of people are taken aback by the amount of risks and horror stories but if scuba diving is done right, there is nothing to fear.
