Equipment
Just For Kids
|
It
is only natural for us divers to want our children to be
divers as well. But if their initial experience is not
fun then they are unlikely to want to continue with
diving. Whenever someone tries something for the first
time, if the experience is fun and enjoyable then they are
much more likely to continue with that activity.
The
most common problem that children face as divers is
equipment that just does not fit well. It is only
natural to want kids to try scuba diving before investing in
the cost of equipment, but ill fitted equipment very often
spells an experience that is just not fun and means that the
child will not want to become a diver.
That
is why Aquatic Adventures has an assortment of children's
scuba equipment for sale and some items for rent.

CHILD BCD from
Aquatec The
BC-03S Child BCD from AQUATEC™ is an
internal bladderless BCD that has a comfortable adjustable
cummerbund waistband with easy to adjust shoulder straps to
fit a wide range of child sizes. This
child BCD is made from the same tough 1000 denier Cordura
bonded to the inside just like the adult BCD's. A special
Compact Back Pack with Soft Padding offers superior
stability & comfort. Most
importantly, this BCD will fit snugly and not slide allowing
your child to have maximum control and safety during their
scuba diving experience. The
Child BCD comes with Scuba-Alert,
Power Inflator, L/P Hose, and hose retainer clip |

CHILD SIZE REGULATOR
|

|
Most people
think that a regulator is a regulator and that outside of a
smaller mouthpiece that is all a child needs. Not so.
If the hose
is too long the regulator will tend to pop out of the
child's mouth every time that they try and look right or
left.
It is definitely
not fun to have to go through an entire dive while holding
the regulator in your mouth.
Besides a
small mouthpiece a regulator for a child should have shorter
hoses on the second stage and possibly on the gauge console
as well.
|
The
BCD's and regulators below were custom fitted for our younger
divers so that they could experience scuba diving in comfort and
safety.

Aquatic Adventures has
trained many kids to earn the PADI Junior Open Water
Diver, Junior Advanced Open Water, Junior Rescue Diver and even the
Junior Master Diver Certification.
