Description
About the Course
Do you want to learn how to best support a dive buddy who has a physical or mental challenge? The PADI® Adaptive Support Diver course will increase your awareness of divers’ varying abilities, and explores adaptive techniques to apply while diving or freediving with a buddy with a disability.
The goal of the PADI Adaptive Support Diver subcourse is to equip divers with helpful
techniques for buddying with divers with disabilities. While this course will interest anyone
who dives with a diver with disabilities, many of the techniques discussed and practiced
apply to any diver.
