Assisting during Rescue Diver pool sessions

Yesterday we did our internships during PADI Rescue Diver confined waters training. This part of the Rescue Diver course is generally hard work, though it gets even harder in the open water.

This pool session was a total organizational fuckup. The to-be-rescue-divers didn't have any classes, they didn't even get to see the Rescue Diver Video, so we had to instruct them in-water which was a bit awkward.

During the pool session managed to show them various techniques of towing a diver, with and without rescue breathing and that was about it.

Afterwards it turned out that the pool will be close from the next week onwards and so the trainees won't be able to practice surfacing unconscious diver before open water.
