Primers
GUE PRIMERS
Primers are a variety of auxiliary training, very much like workshops. The primers cover a huge variety of educations and topics… from simple ones such as the use of drysuit or doubles… to complex scientific skills like for example photogrammetry.
Primers are short 1 or 2 day educational programmes without evaluation. They are designed to help a diver learn and develop a solid foundation in a specific field. Primers are an optional aid to accelerate diver’s skill development.
Doubles Primers
Do you want to learn to dive with doubles? Whether it is to extend the dive time, prepare for technical training or even increase gas redundancy while diving… GUE Doubles Primer will introduce you to the basics of diving with doubles .
During the primer, you will learn different equipment configurations with doubles, how they work and how to respond to associated failures.

Rescue Primer
The underwater environment comes with its challenges and uncertainties. If you are diving on a regular base, it is essential that you know how to prevent or handle stressful situations.

Triox Primer
Diving in more challenging conditions than normal (cold water, with low visibility, greater depth, executing strenuous tasks …) increases the effects and risks of gas density such as gas narcosis.
Demanding dives call for a clear mind of the team members. That is why divers should consider the use of a helium-based gas such as Triox 30/30 in such conditions. GUE Triox Primer will tech you the use of Triox 30/30 as a GUE standard gas.
