DIR diving is a fast growing approach to diving. Be it technical or recreational,
wreck, cave or reef, DIR diving can be relevant to the diving that you do. Jump in on our DIR forums, find
out more about who we are, what we do, and how we do it.
DIRX is a DIR diving forum run by DIR divers for both DIR divers and those who are interested
in learning more about our approach to diving. There is a lot of information around
on the internet about DIR, we hope to bring it together here, at DIRX, into one resource
which each of us can use.
So look around, tell us who you are, what you would like to see from DIRX, ask some
questions, post reports of diving that you have done, or would like to do.
Safe Diving all from the DIRX Team.

Hello everyone! I am Jim from Leighton buzzard in Bedfordshire. Just started this DIR thingy in June and am loving it, my bank manager not loving it so much! Just finished changing all my dive gear over to DIR compliant stuff and am hoping to do a fundies course with Clare either November or December depending on her schedule.
Like to say a big thank you to Duncan Ward for all his help in transitioning me to DIR. We are often up at Stoney Cove during the week (tues or thurs) if... [Read More] | |

Hi all,
Just for the sake of clarity I'll first add I'm not a diver yet but am meeting with a BSAC club shortly to discuss Ocean Diver training. While I have been waiting (due to annoying shifts preventing earlier conference) I have been doing as much research as I can that is appropriate for the level of diving I will be exposed to on the course and a little bit beyond.
I have an interest in the more technical/exploration type of diving (ie wrecks, caves) which is... [Read More] | |

Hi everyone,
I have just started diving again (trip to Maldives) to celebrate being alive after colon cancer. I admire the DIR philosophy of high levels of safety and organization. We should all be more dedicated to correct procedure.
Sincerely,
James Moore

Hi,
Last March, I bought a liveaboard dive boat to work here in the Red Sea. Since then, marketing has gone really well and we are fully booked most of the year with a few weeks I have kept to myself to sell later. So I am thankful for the success of course, but not without a few personal complaints :D
I have discovered that a couple of Russians (deep-air-guru-TDI-tech-monkeys), who are probably the love children of and argument between an IANTD and a TDI... [Read More] | |

Sorry all the site was down for a bit. Our ISP's engineers were making some changes and apparently made quite an error. The site was down for IPv4 users entirely although oddly still worked on IPv6 hence I didn't even know it was down until someone texted me.
All ok now.
Thanks
Webmaster
