The September 2010 PADI AI course on Koh Phangan is in the bag!
The first
IDC on
Koh Phangan (and the first
IDC I'm conducting outside of
Samui) has smooth sailing so far although there are also interesting discussions about the
PADI system going on at times.
We completed a few skill circuits, as Aldo is proving in the picture above whilst he's recovering his regulator.
Joep is doing fine as well and today they passed a set of theory exams, the Open Water skills, a Rescue exercise # 7 (unconscious diver at the surface) and the 800 meter swim and on top of all this they also survived and sat through another curriculum presentation by me!

A picture of the master himself, a rare picture of me on this blog, during one of the skill circuits, observing the candidates, with thanks for the picture to Daniel.

Aldo and
Joep after completing the 800 meters swim today. Off to a day tomorrow and than come Sunday, time for the
OWSI course to kick off.
