B&W Signature Tech Discovery

 B&W Signature Tech Discovery - Find your next step

Don’t choose your configuration until you've dived it.

Before committing to technical training, or investing in an entirely new equipment configuration, take the time to experience it properly.

Our Signature Tech Discovery Program introduces you to twinset or sidemount diving through personalised equipment fitting, practical instruction and meaningful time in the water. Discover how each configuration feels, what changes from your current setup and how it suits the diving you want to do.

Choose one configuration to explore, or experience both with the upgrade to the Signature Tech Discovery Premium Program.

Choose Your Edition

Twinset Edition: experience the balance and feel of a twinset. We’ll guide you through the backplate and wing setup, harness adjustment, cylinder positioning and longhose regulator configuration before working on comfort, buoyancy and movement underwater.

Sidemount Edition: discover what changes when your cylinders mount to your sides. Explore harness fitting, cylinder attachment, hose routing and an introduction to gas management, followed by in-water coaching to refine cylinder positioning, balance and movement.
