Training in the Y-40

Training in the Y-40 offers many advantages:

For the trainer: The clear water offers perfect visibility so that the student can be observed and monitored in detail during the entire dive. Even subtle errors become visible, such as a student's tense abdominal wall or tension in the face and neck muscles when equalising pressure, which is otherwise almost impossible to detect. The warm water means that several long diving sessions a day are possible, which makes the learning curve very steep.

For the student: The warm water makes it possible to dive without a suit and therefore also without a weight belt. This makes diving easier and overall diving in the Y-40 is less tiring than in open water. There is no current, waves or boat traffic. Where else can you dive 2 - 3 sessions of 1.5 hours per day?
