This month we had the pleasure of hosting
TDI Instructor Trainer Mark Powell at
Camel Bar, upon his return from a liveaboard trip in our beautiful Red Sea.
Mark (pictured here with our tech instructor Cath Bates) is one of the
UK’s technical diving instructors and wreck explorer gurus, best known for his regular column in
Sport Diver magazine and for his book
Deco for Divers.
The topic of the presentation was “Deco Myths” and Mark shared some interesting theories regarding
safety stops, bubble models, reverse profiles and deep stops (among others). Sharm’s diving community turned out in good numbers for the event and Mark was inundated with questions afterwards, by instructors wishing to pick his technical brain!
Ian S., one of our regular guests, commented: “I really enjoyed Mark’s talk, it’s been so lucky to be in Sharm at this time. I love the way Mark explains decompression. He does it in a way that normal divers understand.“
