The session began with presentation and demonstration of scuba bailout. Key points: empty all air from BC, maintain control of equipment, equalize while descending. The scuba bailout has components of multiple other skills taught including:
ear equalization on descent
mask clear
regulator recovery and clear
donning scuba unit
Doing all of this demonstration quality while making it look smooth and easy is no small task!
Next was demonstration of scuba rescue, while explaining to students as you went. Again no small task as it involves multiple other skills, all the while explaining what you are doing to the students.
As always, the instructor candidates did a critical review of one another as well as receive instructor critique.
Unfortunately, the night was plagued with ear and sinus problems! So it goes the life of the scuba instructor.
