The Six Skills and Other Discussions by Steve Lewis - Autographed Copies!
The
topics covered in The Six Skills and Other Discussions constitute a
good basic primer for any diver interested in being safer, more aware,
and more skillful in the water but the topics covered in this book do
not conform to the standard format of any mainstream textbook or diving
manual.
Several of the examples given in this new book are
drawn from corporate management techniques rather than classic dive
manuals, and the reader will be challenged to rethink some of the limits
and practices set by more traditional approaches dive planning.
The
topics covered include: A definition of Technical Diving and what to
expect from a tech diving course; Buoyancy, the force that opposes
gravity; Trim, the streamlined approach to diving; The skill of movement
and position;, Breathing, beyond the standard advice not to hold your
breath; Situational awareness, the chess master’s skill; Emotional
control; Dive execution, equipment configuration, doing what works; The
deco curve, Accident analysis, and chalking the foul lines, and more.
What the experts are saying:
"This
is far from a conventional text. By breaking down the activity of
technical diving into six simple topics, Lewis presents tools for anyone
to become a safer diver, for students to find good mentors and for
those with years of experience to identify motivations, seek excellence
and closely consider risk assessment I simply can't imagine a diver who
would not benefit from this satisfying look at the mastery of safe
technical diving."
-- Jill Heinerth
“Modelled
after Richard Feynman's famed lectures on elementary physics, explorer
and educator Steve Lewis lays out the fundamental principles and skill
sets of modern technical diving in an erudite series of entertaining,
information-rich, lecture-style essays that are accessible and rewarding
to both novice and experienced diver alike.
-- Michael Menduno
“Becoming
a real diver is more far complex than putting together a swing set by
following the directions. Textbooks give you the knowledge to dive.
Steve Lewis gives you the insights on how to practice diving as the art
it really is.“
-- John Chatterton
