Your Sidemount PCB Essentials class in Gozo was great! You are the best. It was great fun. I enjoyed every second of it. It is amazing to see your passion and experience.

You can use the camera to capture them and include them in future videos. Your online training videos are amazing. They will get you prepared for what you need to know in the water training. This concept I believe is key to the steep learning curve, as you can make the most of your time underwater. Steve, thanks so much for all your help! Nils read more

sidemountpcb.com's online training is essential for both recreational and technical divers. Although I had previously taken a Tec 40 /sidemount class before beginning my technical training with Joe, I consider that the start of my technical learning sidemount essentials. Joe was able focus on his in-water skills thanks to the online training. The beginning of my technical diving training was sidemount essentials. I completed a Tec40 /sidemount class in Florida before I began my training with Joe. Joe was able focus on the in water skills development through online training. This was the foundation of cave training and all other technical courses, such as trimix with Vas. The online training provides a great way to develop in-water skills and shows what divers can expect from good in-water training. My daughter, who is just starting out in diving, has already watched the backmount video before starting open water training. I am also reviewing the instructors videos to ensure that I am the best buddy' for her as she goes through the training process. These videos are essential for the safe development of recreational and technical divers. Daniel Glynn (father cave diver) reads less

Not asking questions and exploring options, tends to put a stop to the progression of safety and growth in diving. I have studied in depth your online teachings for 2 years now and counting. I have practiced and trained muscle memory but most importantly never kept my mouth shut if other divers ask me. The results are incredible as they now see a better way. I must also say that in my 2 years of learning, you were always kind enough to explain, or give me an idea for improvement!!! There is always an opportunity to ask, learn, teach, discuss, and grow. In diving there should be no stupid questions. I’m sure I will open my mouth in future to ask another question!! Lol

Love your vids Steve. I am in Nova Scotia Canada. I just received my tdi-sm certificate in August. Your online course was a great addition to my training. It has helped me tremendously! We are grateful.
