Scuba Shack's Dive Skill Refresher course will get you ready to get back in the water. Our single pool session will take you through the basic equipment set up, adjust your weighting, practice your descents and ascents, work on your propulsion and refresh your basic skills like mask clearing, alternate air use, regulator recover and more. Your practice session with a Scuba Shack PADI Professional will be documented in your dive log for proof that you have demonstrated your comfort and capabilities in the water. This is a great way to avoid spending one of your vacation days your dive destination completing refresher work.

Do I Need My Own Equipment?

Yes - as a certified diver you should have your basic scuba kit consisting of a mask, snorkel, fins, boots, buoyancy compensator, and regulator. Scuba Shack will provide tanks and weights for the confined water pool session. If you do not have your own equipment we can provide rental gear. Please stop by Scuba Shack in advance to be fitted if you need to rent equipment.

What Do I Do Next?

You can register online for one of our upcoming sessions or you can give us a call or send us an email to look at other options. You should have your original certification card available for proof that you are a certified open water scuba diver (any qualifying agency counts).

Is There Anything Else?

Yes - Everyone who participates in Scuba Shack's Dive Skill Refresher program must complete the RSTC Medical Questionaire before particpating in any in-water activity. You can download a copy of the form here. Based on your responses, you may be required to have your physician clear you for recreational scuba diving.
