If you want to fine-tune your buoyancy and soar over reefs, extend bottom time by reducing air consumption and prolong the life of your dive equipment, the Peak Performance Buoyancy Specialty course is for you.

The purpose of the PADI Peak Performance Buoyancy Specialty course is to polish a diver’s buoyancy control beyond the Open Water Diver level. The goal of PADI Peak Performance Buoyancy training is to enhance the student diver diver’s buoyancy control abilities through knowledge development and practical skills practice.

1. Peak Performance Buoyancy fundamentals:
   
   • Buoyancy check
     
   • Fine-tuning buoyancy underwater
     
   • Weight position and distribution
     
   • Streamlining
     
   • Visualization
     
2. Use of PADI’s “Basic Weighting Guidelines.”
   
3. An opportunity to polish buoyancy control beyond the Open
   Water Diver level:
   
   • Positioning and distributing weight for comfort and desired body position (trim in the water)
     
   • Visualization techniques prior to dives
     
   • Buoyancy checks
     
   • Establishing neutral buoyancy during all segments of a dive
     
   • Fine-tuning neutral buoyancy underwater
     
   • Hovering
