I plan to make more in the future that document training at all levels. However, a lot of caution needs to go into what gets up out though. We have to be extremely cautious not to present training processes or steps, or provide instruction of any kind either. Doing so could give an unknowing but daring person just enough information to falsely believe they can repeat it on their own, which can and will kill them. So when posting videos that show training, they need to be very generalized and not detail anything specific.
@@pinnacledivingco I completely agree. Having just completed my Mod 1 on a Sidewinder, I think you did a great job. As you presented it, it was more about your experience than it is was bout how to dive the unit.
@@TheModularDiver Thank you very much. Yes, my experience was a crossover, not a full beginners course. I had a background in O2 rebreather use, but hadn’t used a rebreather in a decade by the point of doing this. As an instructor myself, I wanted to share my experience, but I didn’t want to share anything that would entice idiotic daredevils with misguided or just purely ignorant beliefs and too much confidence, if that makes sense. Since sharing this, I’ve received numerous positive responses, mostly in messages, asking for more. So I’ve decided starting this coming summer I’ll plan to make more of these types of videos to hopefully encourage people toward diving, proper and correct KSA’s, experiences, and more. If anything, I hope they’ll be enjoyable and promote education and safety. 😎🙏🏻
Wow, that was one incredible Video. I just started the tecnical career on OC last year and i am still strugeling with taskload because i changed all my equipment and have to find the perfect setup and get used to the equipment. CCR is far away for me but verry interesting to see how an experienced instruktor like you still strugles with an unknown setup. You did a great job improving and adapting during the course. 👍👍👍
Hey Markus, thanks for the compliment! I have a firm belief that there is always room for improvement, for everyone, at any level. And changing equipment can throw anyone off. I'm glad to hear you're on the tec path, and I wish you all the best in your adventure. I recommend to take is slow, one small step at a time, then practice to master that step before moving on to the next. Before long, you'll be able to look back and marvel at how far you've gone. 😎🤙🙌
Very instructive video, even if i'm a beginer (36 dives for the moment) but as i'm french, i thinks that's one day i will purchase a Triton MCCR ! Awesome video, keep going like that !
😂 Yeah, I was all like, “Pfffft, ok, whatever, I’ll just swim sideways!”, and when that didn’t exactly work out, the lightbulb went off and I was like, “Oh yeah! I can use my SMB for buoyancy, duh!” 😂
@@pinnacledivingco I’m going to have to get my passport and come out one week on vacation and do some diving with you I think it would make epic content
What a useless comment. I assume you’ve never done a tech course and found the initial learning curve overwhelming. The fact that @pinnacledivinco shows his mistakes is a credit to his humility.
I wish there were more of these videos on YT. Thanks for sharing!

Enjoyed the video. Love that kind of instructor.

Awesome video, keep going like that !
I hope you do. It’s a good unit. 😎🤙🏻
the instructor is on REVO and he is a ninja.... just sayin
Good video. Well done and thank you. I dive a Triton too.
@@functioningnarcotic2098 I hope you like it. I’ll soon be moving on to a GBM later this year.
Shared this insanity on my Facebook to lol I wish we trained like that here
Nothing stopping you from developing a program. 😉 If you need help, feel free to reach out any time. ☺️
@@pinnacledivingco more just building up some buddies that are willing to wreck each other at random on dives
Bro I love this video I was thinking use the dsmb and you said it
😂 Yeah, I was all like, “Pfffft, ok, whatever, I’ll just swim sideways!”, and when that didn’t exactly work out, the lightbulb went off and I was like, “Oh yeah! I can use my SMB for buoyancy, duh!” 😂
@@pinnacledivingco I carry a dsmb and a lift bag on all technical dives
@@overcash007 I carry two, different colors. I posted two videos here explaining why. 😎
@@pinnacledivingco I’m going to have to get my passport and come out one week on vacation and do some diving with you I think it would make epic content
@@overcash007 Bro you’re more than welcome any time.
Why would you not do a buoyancy check at the surface. That’s like diving 101 wow maybe go back to a swim pool
😂 Perhaps you could teach me since you already know everything. 🤔👍🏻
