Buoyancy & Trim Workshop July 4th 2026

10 club divers spent a very enyoyable day at Stoney Cove on a Buoyancy and Trim workshop. The week before we had all completed a theory session either online or in person at our weekly pool session. This prepared us for what was to come.

At Stoney, we had an opportunity to review our kit and discuss how we felt about our buaoyancy and weighting. The first dive was a chance to analyse our weighting and positioning in the water and we moved our way up a shotline over about 30 mins.

We then had a surface interval to reflect on what went well and what could be changed. Many divers made some changes including moving kit, adjusting straps and losing lead.

the second dive was a chance to put these changes in action and test our changes, The course makes us question the way we dive and think more about our kit and our position and ease in the water. 

Thanks to all members for making it a very fun day with a lot packed in.
