– UTD TECHNIQUES – DIVING AT NIGHT 1. Situational awareness and navigation need more attention than in the day. 2. Always take a minimum of one primary light and one backup light. 4. Practice night skills often – airshares, smb deployment, and navigations. 3. Light awareness means using your light carefully, so as not to alarm your teammates. 5. Be properly trained for night dives – start with training or, if it’s been a while, do your night dive with an instructor.
