Kiss Training

ReikiMaster · 29th July 2007, 19:20

Hi all,

Finally got round to thinkig properly about an Rebreather and think i may have settled on a Classic Kiss

therefore am looking for recommendations for training in the UK (preferably in the south)

Cheers

Steve,
Martin at EAU2 has a very good reputation, The web site is Eau2 Technical diver training, cave diver training, trimix and rebreather courses in UK, Europe and World-wide .
He's fairly local, and also runs courses in warmer climes if you want.

I did my MOD 1 with Dave Thompson in the Red Sea and he was superb. There is an article on it in the library.

I will confirm Martin at Eau2.com is an excellent trainer. I just finished my ccr cave and trimix training with him and he knows his stuff. He is very good at conveying priciples and as far as practical he is tops. If I was looking to train on a new breather I would definetly look him up. He has been using the classic Kiss for quite a while and he has been selling and keeping replacement parts in his shop. I am on the other side of the pond and I can give you from personal experience that he is quite good.

Another vote for Dave Thompson, if you are looking for a second hand kiss I will be selling mine in about a months time.

Ditto Dave Thompson, highly reccomended.

I did my training with Rich Stevenson and found him to be a very good instructor, so much so that I've just booked to do MOD 2 and 3 with him next year.
