IDC Equipment Requirements |
If you didn't have your own set of
equipment during the Divemaster Course, you will certainly
need one to complete the IDC and for use once you
become an Instructor.
Having your own equipment during
training allows you to become familiar with it and
will make your training and diving easier and more
comfortable.
If you have equipment and are not sure what to bring
then bring everything you have. If you tend to feel
the cold then make sure you bring a full length 3-5mm
wetsuit, particularly if you are taking the IDC during
the cooler months.
During the IDC, candidatess are expected to have
all of the following standard diver equipment:
 fins,
mask, snorkel, buoyancy control device with low pressure
inflator, regulator, alternate air source, submersible
pressure gauge, weight system, appropriate exposure
protection, timing device, depth gauge, compass, knife
/ diver’s tool, slate, dive table and two surface
signaling devices – one audible (whistle, air
horn, etc.) and one visual (inflatable surface tube,
flare, signal mirror, etc.), Dive computer or RDP
(eRDPML or Table).
The Dive Academy will provide tanks, weights and
weight belts for the duration of the IDC.
 If
there is any item of equipment you don’t have
you can buy it from The Dive Academy and you will
get 10% discount on anything you buy.
If you need to buy a full set of equipment we will
give you advice and recommendations about what you
