Where Good Divers Get Better.

Our approach

Good trim and buoyancy are not only about looking better underwater. They affect comfort, safety, air consumption, team awareness and how much impact you have on the underwater world.

XTend on TB is influenced by high-level diving standards, but shaped into a realistic 3-day format for divers who want serious progress during their Tenerife trip.

For extra safety background, you can read more from DAN about buoyancy control and dive safety.

Trim Before Tricks – We start with weighting, balance, body position and streamlining, because stable trim is the foundation for everything that follows.

Finning That Works – You practise frog kick, back kick, helicopter turn and modified flutter kick, with the goal of moving less, controlling more and avoiding unnecessary disturbance.

Control Under Task Load – We build task loading step by step, so you can write in a wetnote, deploy an SMB, communicate, manage gas and stay aware without floating all over the place.

FAQ’s XTend on TB Trim and Buoyancy

What is XTend on TB Trim and Buoyancy?

XTend on TB is an Aquarius-developed trim and buoyancy training program in Tenerife. It is designed for certified divers who want much better control underwater, not only a quick buoyancy refresh.

The training was shaped through years of teaching and diving experience in the Netherlands, Romania and Tenerife, including cold water, lower visibility and demanding wreck-diving environments. That background is exactly why XTend on TB focuses so strongly on trim, weighting, awareness, finning, task control and real underwater discipline.

Is XTend on TB the same as PADI Peak Performance Buoyancy?

No. XTend on TB goes far beyond a standard PADI Peak Performance Buoyancy course. The PADI PPB certification is included, but the Aquarius training program is longer, more detailed and much more focused on trim, finning, task control and real underwater awareness.

A major difference is the use of video debriefing. When useful, we film your dives and review the footage with you, so you can clearly see your body position, movement, trim and progress. For many divers, this is the moment when everything starts to make sense.

Who can join XTend on TB Trim and Buoyancy?

You must be at least 15 years old, certified as PADI Open Water Diver or equivalent and have a minimum of 8 logged dives.

This course is ideal for divers who already know they move too much, use too much air, feel unstable, struggle with trim, disturb the bottom or want to become more controlled before continuing into advanced, wreck, dry suit, sidemount or technical training.

How does the XTend on TB course work?

The course takes 3 days and includes theory, dry runs, field drills and 5 open water dives. We start with weighting, body position, streamlining and basic control, then gradually add finning techniques and task loading.

The training builds step by step, so you are not overloaded immediately. As your control improves, we add more realistic tasks such as hand communication, gas checks, wetnotes, SMB work and awareness exercises.

What will I achieve after XTend on TB?

Most divers see clear improvement, although every diver starts from a different point and every student outcome is different. The goal is not to force everyone into one identical style, but to help you become more stable, more aware and more controlled.

You should improve your trim, buoyancy, weighting, finning, air consumption, task control and general confidence. You also receive the PADI Peak Performance Buoyancy certification, and we advise you on the best next step for your diving goals.
