Scubasigns - Guide to all diving hand signals
(DiveTravelBusinessNews.com - Nov 17, 2009) -- Here's a great gift or retail item for your dive clients. Scubasigns is the definitive guide to all diving hand signals. While everyone learns some basic hand signals during dive training, Scubasigns provides hundreds of hand signals used by divers worldwide to show marine life, share information or indicate a problem. A book for the novice or experienced, a wreck diver, tech diver or marine watcher, Scubasigns is a unique addition to anyone's scuba library.
Authors Dave van Stijn and Mike Harterink travelled the world to collect hand signals used by divers. Together with diving organizations, they reviewed all signals before Scubasigns was created. The guide contains nearly 500 hand signals that are clearly illustrated in underwater photographs on 288 pages and 13 chapters (including a chapter on humorous underwater signals), making them easy to understand and practice.
A purchase of a Scubasigns book also helps the Scubasigns Foundation: the Foundation's aim is to create a strong economic interest in keeping marine life healthy by contributing to the education of local people in underdeveloped areas of the world that want to become dive professionals.
Scubasigns is distributed by Atlas Books and retails for US$29.95. Call 800-266-5564 or email orders@AtlasBooks.com.
