Discover Scuba Diving! PJ KL City Folks

Discover Scuba Diving!

Well, try everything at least once in your life, huh?

Lucky me that one of my colleague is a Pro - instructor. A stylo-pretty-cun lady who have much passion in scuba diving. She gave us a free introduction class (yeah, free!) to let us experience how it feels to breath under the water.

Let it begin..

There's a few things to get ready prior to the DSD session. 

1. Necessary paperwork to be filled in
2. A briefing video to be watch - learning the dive equipment, sign language (you can talk underwater ya :) 
3. Have fun!

BRING IT ON!

We headed to PADI DSD at PJ, Jalan Gasing for our first session. Instructor began to introduce the equipment, safety rules and explanation on sign language will be used once we are under water.

First rule! NEVER HOLD YOUR BREATH!

Golden rule! NEVER HOLD YOUR BREATH!

Important rule! NEVER HOLD YOUR BREATH!

It is so so important that you death and life fall on this rule. ok? 

In total there are 9 hand sign , 8 basic equipments and 1 rule to remember. We equip ourself with swim wear ( or muslimah wear) with t-shirt and shorts outside.

My experience 

Picture says more than words.. Just scroll down and you make your judge!

This is my style instructor! Cool right? Tell me about it.. *drool*

Learning how to breath and let the water out when it accidentally slip in.. I drank A LOT OF WATER in this session..

This is me after finally conquer the skill of breathing and clearing the water.. A victory pose :P

It is us! We enjoy so much! Time to swim after all the skills acquired.. Mermaid on the way.. Excuse me!

Well.. I look less mermaid than my instructor..

Photo bomb!!!

We really have so much fun for the day. Would want to share some useful information with you.

Useful info:

• Take you course early of the year as the monsoon season allow DSD at certain island only (thus restricted your dive travelling date choices)
• Stick with a instructor that you like because you gonna stick with her till you are and Advance or Master Diver (you can't dive alone) plus you have to see her for the whole Open Water Dive for at least a month!
• PADI have a few place that you can go the the DSD
• PADI website http://www.padi.com/scuba-diving/padi-courses/course-catalog/try-scuba-diving/
• Go for certificate as you do not want to risk your life
• My instructor name is Audrey, based at Jalan Gasing PJ

Love,

Tarzan experience @ Skytrex

Skytrex Adventure provides the first of its kind in Malaysia, a tree to tree ‘sky-trekking’ experience where one is able to have the experience of a lifetime to fly, swing, glide and dangle on the various aerial obstacles suspended above the lush tropical Malaysian Rainforest.

It is all about testing your agility, challenging your fear and pushing yourself to the limit.

Safety is prioritized where the Skytrex is constructed and managed in accordance with International Safety Standards. The instructors would thoroughly educate and train us on the use and operation of the safety equipments and flying fox gear before we head out to start our course.

Instructor on the move...

Training before heading for the thrill...

There will also be instructors stationed at more difficult obstacles to guide you along the way. 

However, if one needs to withdraw from the activity, there are Chicken Exits for you to get off the circuit.

Speaking from experience, the Big Thrill circuit would require a lot of upper body strength and balancing, but fret not for those who doesn’t workout as myself, Big Thrill is definitely challenging but achievable.

The big action...*thrilling*

              

         

Looking forward to my Extreme Challenge experience one day. Nothing is impossible!

Skytrex has 2 parks: One in Taman Botani Negara Shah Alam, whilst another in Burau Bay Langkawi

There are 3 types of circuits

Little Adventure is more suitable for children, however must be accompanied by adult (max 2 children per adult)

Would recommend Big Thrill for 1st timer who doesn’t workout frequently.
