  • Peak Performance Buoyancy fundamentals
  • Fine-tuning buoyancy underwater
  • Weight position and distribution
  • Streamlining
  • Positioning and distributing weight for comfort and desired body position (trim in the water)
  • Visualization techniques prior to dives
  • Buoyancy checks
  • Establishing neutral buoyancy during all segments of a dive
  • Hovering
  • The elective Peak Performance Buoyancy dive conducted during the PADI Advanced Open Water Diver or Advanced Plus program may be counted toward this specialty at the instructor’s discretion.
