About me
Diving is my job, my hobby and my free time. I'm an IDF Course Director and I live for diving, above all caves and technical diving. I train recreational divers to become technical divers: on open circuit, on rebreathers and in the overhead environment.
My goal is to give my students the best training possible. There are no shortcuts. At the end, my students and I should both be proud of what we have achieved.
Expect a sarcastic, dry sense of humour on the course. Training and your safety, on the other hand, I take absolutely seriously.
Besides IDF, I'm also an SDI/TDI Course Director, so I offer every course under SDI/TDI standards too; prerequisites and scope may differ there.
As a certified service technician for the common rebreathers and regulators, I know the equipment from the inside and can help you with servicing and configuration.
Within IDF we train together several times a year and work closely with several rescue teams, for example cave rescue in Slovenia and Portugal. That keeps the quality of our training consistently high.
I always keep myself up to date, keep on training and love learning new things.
I teach the CCR courses on the S7, T-Reb and Poseidon Se7en.
