IDC practice days at the Gili Islands

The Gili Islands IDC is over! The next 3 days is it only practice. Today we had theory in the morning and 2 confined sessions in the afternoon. It is still serious but the IDC candidates and PADI course Director Sander Buis are having a lot of fun. The skills of today for the IDC candidates were: * partial mask * regulator recovery * quick reverse * underarm push The candidates passed all the confined session with fantastic scores and they are ready for the PADI Instructor Examination (IE). The candidates didn't practice only 4 confined presentations, till now they have done 7 confined presentations, so they have practice a lot of skills. Oceans 5 dive resort stands for quality and like to implement their ideas about this also in the IDC. Our candidates are not trained to pass an IE but to become a full PADI Dive instructor.
