Rebreather – All Things Diving

RAID – Rebreather Association of International Divers

RAID or Rebreather Association of International Divers was founded by Barry Coleman. In the early 90s he started rebreather diving and conceptualised the design of a recreational rebreather. Working closely with the design team at Poseidon, the Mk VI Discovery Rebreather was born and brought to market in 2007. RAID was then launched by Coleman to support the diver training required for Mk VI.

IANTD – International Advanced Nitrox and Technical Diving

Up to a certain time, mixed gas diving and decompression gases were used almost exclusively for military or commercial purposes. Because it was quite simple and safe, mixed gases became more popular among some group of divers. In 1985 IANTD or International Advanced Nitrox and Technical Diving was founded to fill the gap and bring these techniques to the public.

GUE – Global Underwater Explorers

GUE or Global Underwater Explorers was established in 1999 by Jarrod Jablowski. Following WKPP’s introduction in 1995 of a standardized approach to gear configuration and diving procedures, there was a significant reduction in diving incidents within the Woodville Karst Plain cave system. This is the idea behind GUE.
