Refresco de buceo en Barcelona

Reserva Ahora

Ocurre con frecuencia que, por diversas razones, personas que logran su titulación de buceo no pueden proseguir regularmente con dicha actividad. En estos casos, antes de retomar la práctica del submarinismo, es conveniente repasar sus técnicas y conceptos básicos. Por esta razón, en Underwater Barcelona ofrecemos el servicio de refresco de buceo, que permite actualizar las habilidades y conocimientos para una inmersión segura.

¿Qué es el refresco de buceo?

Bucear es parecido a montar bicicleta, en el sentido que una vez se domina la técnica, esta no se olvida por completo. Sin embargo, luego de una larga temporada sin realizar ninguna inmersión, es conveniente repasar el manejo del equipo de buceo, en compañía de un instructor certificado

El servicio de refresco de buceo, también conocido como scuba refresh o scuba review, permite a los buzos certificados en Open Water, refrescar sus conocimientos de buceo. Es decir, su fin es repasar de forma simple las prácticas de buceo, tras permanecer un tiempo inactivo. Siempre bajo la atenta guía de un buzo con certificado PADI, quien vela por que sea una actividad no solo confortable, sino segura.  

Cabe destacar que el refresco de buceo es una actividad incluida dentro de las dos organizaciones mundiales de buceo más importantes: PADI y SSI.  La primera es la Professional Association of Diving Instructors o Asociación Profesional de Instructores de Buceo, y es a la qual pertenecen nuestros instructores.

Actividades incluidas en un refresco de buceo

Más que aprender, el objetivo de esta actividad es hacerte recordar los conocimientos que previamente recibiste en un curso de aguas abiertas. Por ello, lo primero que realizarás en nuestro refresco de buceo es un repaso sobre la teoría del buceo. No incluye el estudio completo del manual de tu curso de Open Water, sino los conceptos más importantes, y cómo estos influyen en la práctica la inmersión.

En la parte práctica comenzarás repasando el montaje del equipo de buceo y cómo se verifica que todo esté en perfecto orden. Una vez en el agua, ejecutarás algunos ejercicios a poca profundidad, principalmente relacionados con el uso del regulador y la máscara, y la flotabilidad. Durante todo el proceso, el instructor PADI se encargará de brindarte la supervisión requerida, y responder las dudas que puedas tener.

Apenas superado el paso anterior, realizarás una inmersión de aguas abiertas, hasta una profundidad máxima de 18m, bajo la atenta supervisión del instructor. Su compañía te ayudará sentirte cómodo y seguro, además que de él recibirás indicaciones de como corregir posibles fallos en tu técnica de buceo. 

Una vez culminada la inmersión en aguas abiertas, ya estarás oficialmente refrescado. Y seguro enamorado de nuevo del buceo, por lo que no dejarás pasar mucho tiempo hasta tu próxima inmersión.

Equipo para el refresco de buceo

El equipo requerido para un refresco de buceo incluye la mayoría de los elementos que se emplean en el buceo recreativo en aguas abiertas; es decir:

  • Máscara de submarinismo.
  • Botella de aire comprimido.

Preguntas frecuentes

¿Cuándo es obligatorio hacer el refresco de buceo?

Por lo general, la mayoría de los centros de buceo exigen esta actividad a sus miembros, cuando estos no han efectuado inmersiones en los últimos 12 meses. Incluso, es recomendado realizar un refresco de buceo después de 6 meses sin bucear, inmediatamente luego de aprobar el curso de Open Water Diver.  

¿Cuáles son los requisitos para realizar un refresco de buceo?

Para poder efectuar el servicio de refresco de buceo que te ofrecemos en Underwater Barcelona debes de tener una titulación mínima Open Water Diver, y llevar más de un año sin bucear.

¿Cuánto dura la inmersión en un refresco de buceo?

Lo habitual es que cada una de las dos inmersiones incluidas en esta actividad, tome entre 20 y 40 minutos. La variabilidad del tiempo se explica en el hecho que cada persona posee su propio ritmo de respiración, y por lo tanto, tarda más o menos en agotar la reserva disponible en la botella de aire comprimido.
