The Risks of Diving
A pre-dive buddy check is performed prior to every dive to ensure all of your equipment is in proper working order.
"Equipment is prone to failure"
Equipment malfunctions are rare, and most divers will never experience a major failure underwater. The most common malfunctions are minor air leaks, and you'll learn that most of these leaks have minimal impact on your dive.
During your course, you'll learn how to check your gear prior to every dive. Your equipment will also undergo a second inspection by your dive buddy. With the combination of these two inspections, careful divers can identify potential failures before the dive begins. This minimizes the risk of equipment failure.
