Blue Print for Technical Dive Planning

The Chart of Technical Dive Planning basically covers the Where, Why, with Who, How and What-if's of each dive plan. We maintain that a detailed and well thought out Dive Plan should be constructed for each and every dive, from the Open Water Level to Deep Mixed Gas, Cave and Rebreather Diving. This is very important because divers sometimes take their experience for granted, presume a dive will workout fine and overlook some or all of the parts of properly planning a dive. When things go wrong and your dive plan did not include a contingency to cover that problem, resolving it becomes more difficult. This can increase a diver's risk and stress levels exponentially. 86K
