SwedTech skills
SwedTech Diving is a DIR agency founded by Michael Bergström in Sweden in 2003. It is much smaller than agencies such as GUE and is not strongly active online. However, they maintain a YouTube channel for skill demonstrations. Because of this, divers can still access their content even though the agency itself has limited online presence. Since the focus is mainly on the Swedish market, some SwedTech skills demos may not appear in English Google searches.
These videos have several notable features. First of all, each step is paired with explanatory text, which makes the demonstrations clear and easy to follow. Moreover, the pace is slow enough to allow divers to study each movement precisely. In addition, the diver wears dry gloves, something rarely shown in other demonstrations. Although many videos feature drysuits, very few include dry gloves, and SwedTech highlights this difference. Finally, in the first video the diver even uses a common drysuit model. As a result, the visibility of the procedures is enhanced and it offers a realistic reference for drysuit use in technical diving.
Below you will find a curated list of SwedTech skills demos from YouTube. If, however, you know of other useful demonstrations not currently listed, please let me know and I will add them.
