Skin and scuba diving have inherent risks which may result in serious injury or death.
Diving with compressed air involves certain inherent risks; decompression sickness, embolism or other hyperbaric injury can occur that require treatment in a recompression chamber. Open water diving trips may be conducted at a site that is remote, either by time or distance or both, from such a recompression chamber. Skin and scuba diving are physically strenuous activities and you will be exerting yourself. You must advise truthfully and fully inform the DiveVerse Committee of your medical history.
