PADI Full Face Mask Specialty
PADI Full Face Mask specialty course: Diving with a full face mask allows you to breathe from your nose and mouth. The mask can also be fitted with communication gear, which can be useful for various types of specialty diving.
Description
Divers that work for a living such as public safety divers, use full face masks because they protect the eyes and nose from contaminants in the water. If you’re interested public safety diving, scientific diving, or venturing into extremely cold-water, then learning to dive with a full face mask is definitely for you. Because full face masks allow you to breathe from your nose, they are also beneficial for those who have difficulty using standard scuba masks. Diving with a full face mask offers a different experience and that alone may be reason to give it a try.
There are several different types of full face masks, so you begin learning about varying mask features and components. Next, you learn techniques for preparing and diving with a full face mask as well as proper maintenance.
During a confined water dive, you get comfortable using your mask and practice skills in preparation for your open water dives. In open water, during two dives, you’ll demonstrate your ability to:
- Properly prepare and check your mask for the dive.
- Make adjustments underwater and clear water out of the mask.
- Respond to simulated out-of-gas emergency situations.
