Equipment
Children are smaller and thinner than most adults. Experience has shown
us that, for a child's comfort, safety and performance, it is best when
children use equipment specifically designed for their size and age.
Here are a few recommendations when looking for children's scuba diving
equipment:
- Mask - Diving is not fun if the mask is constantly leaking. A good fit will provide a good seal. Mask should be sized to fit their smaller faces. A quality mask is made of silicon, and has a lens made of tempored glass for protection against breakage.
- Wet Suit - The amount of fun kids will have is affected by how warm they are. Suits should be sized for kids so it is snug, but not tight. Can be either shorty or full suit.
- Buoyancy Compensator - Proper fit determines comfort and performance. Should have smaller waist band and shorter inflator hose.
- Regulator - Mouth comfort is determined by the size and weight of the second stage. Look for light-weight materials and a small mouthpiece. Should also have shorter hose from the first stage to the second stage.
