About me
I've been diving since 2013, and technical diving had me hooked from the very start. 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.
