Don't let a minor gear issue like a missing o-ring, a torn wetsuit, or a broken fin strap ruin your dive day! The PADI Equipment Specialist course teaches you how to manage basic scuba equipment repairs and adjustments, understand routine care procedures, and gain a deeper knowledge of how your essential dive gear works.

This course will make you more familiar with your equipment and better prepared to take care of your investment. You'll learn about:
