• UTD Scuba Diving Podcast #110 – Jeff Carcast – The Bigger the Blob the Better the Job

  Send us a textThe electrical engineers creed about soldering: "The bigger the blob, the better the job."The rock climbers creed about rope: "If you don't know the knot, tie a lot."These two sayings, unfortunately, summarize much of the recreational scuba training that is currently happening. Without an understanding of "why," instructors are showing students how to do skills and expecting them to fully learn those skills. That, however, is impossible.In this short carcast, Jeff looks at the concept of proper education and its most vital cousin: retention.For more information on the UTD Coaching Program, click here.To contact us at UTD, click here.

• UTD Scuba Diving Podcast #109 – Jeff Carcast – UTD's History and Me

  Send us a textFor about two years Jay has been asking me for a history of UTD. It's one of the tasks I never completed, until now. On a long drive from San Diego up to the Sierra Nevada Mountains I recorded a look back at Unified Team Diving – how did it start, where did it start, what were some of the ups, and what were some of the downs.For those of you who have been around UTD for a long time, much of this will sound familiar. For those of you who have come to UTD more recently, this should give you some perspective on how we became what we are today.Questions or comments?

• UTD Scuba Diving Podcast #107 – Jeff's Carcast - Comparing Yourself to Others

  Send us a textDo you feel like you are good enough? That is the core of this episode. In diving, and in sports, we are constantly comparing ourselves to others and that can be a huge impediment to any successful outcome in a class or training program. The most important thing in any training situation, or in a competition, is simple: you do you.As usual, I tie diving to cycling. Regardless of whether these stories are about you, let us know if you need some guidance, some coaching, or some mentoring as you move though your career as the best scuba diving version of you.JeffMore on the UTD Scuba Coaching Program:https://utdscubadiving.com/utd-scuba-coaching/For more info, contact us here:https://utdscubadiving.com/contact/
