2025 marks the 30th year anniversary of Advanced Diver Magazine.
Over these decades, I have watched the world of technical diving blossom from garage designs to readily available technical training and commercially available tech diving equipment.
The early days of deep air moved to OC trimix and then to MCCR / CCR rebreather technology. Dive configurations from back mount to sidemount and chest mount. From virtually no training agencies to an extensive selection of three letter dive training agencies.
The last 30 years have been a fun ride which included PADI calling nitrox, “Snake Oil” to the WKPP’s George Irvine referring to everyone as “Strokes”, the continued arguments on the Deco Stop and Rebreather World, to today where all you hear is “You can’t do that if you’re not certified”.
Now at 61, I can’t image making it another 30 years or how the diving industry and technology will change, but if I do, can you imaging the stories I could tell……
So, DIVE DIVE DIVE!
