this is great, wish more instructors teach the way you do Andy. Most places you go, especially resort locations its all about the $$$ Its about getting them into a wreck, "this is a reel, you might use it sometime" and out 4 times. They get a shiny new card, the center gets their cash. Students learn slightly more than they knew before & in worst cases end up thinking all specialties are just a waste of time & money. Specialties are meant to GROW student's knowledge & ability & not just for instructors to hard sell for commission.. Keep it up!
Did you notice at 5:01 the secondary is free flowing, steadily? And not sure I would carry a snorkel like that I do carry a pocket roll up style for PADI courses to be with in standards. On the tank could get lost or entanglement hazard. Do enjoy your videos though.
nicely done, looking good. I like the teaching method, some of you might need to work on streamlining your tanks a bit more, and for god sake keep the snorkels at home, they are just another thing to get caught :P

Loved it. Everything is very streamlined and thought well
but
Snorkels? With sidemount rig? I am PADI tecrec myself never used snorkel on sidemount
Streamlined? Half the shots of sidemount divers showed tanks way out of trim.

interesting ,thinking about some dive training beyond 30 feet thanks for this insight and motivational tips
If the "P" in PADI means paperwork and the "A" means application, what do the "D" and the "I" stand for?
"Dollar In" :D
please update more tips
do you use any magnets in your work ?
