Basically, it's a kid's book. Use a dive slate!
serious divers will likely think this complex system is pretty silly. A slate works really well. But for kids, or for a few basic communiques, the book has some good signals. It would take a good knowledge of the marine creatures before the signals would make sense. It does go far beyond the simple hand signals from your PADI classes. It would be a neat gift to give a...

It would take a good knowledge of the marine creatures before the signals would make sense. It does go far beyond the simple hand signals from your PADI classes. It would be a neat gift to give a Junior Open Water graduate.

This review is from: Scuba Talk: A Guide to Underwater Communication : Florida, Bahamas and Caribbean Edition (Spiral-bound)
It's a very cute, compact, spiral bound book with striking photographs. However, I was disappointed with my purchase. I had anticipated that the book would focus on hand signals to be used as an underwater language for divers. However, the book focuses primarily on hand signals for the identification of fish. There are 70+ pages in the book and only two pages are designated for (extremely basic) hand signals for scuba divers. If you want to communicate the id of a fish to your dive buddy, this is the book for you. |
