HOG Regulator Service Class

Post by doubtingGunnel »

I would like to take the day long class. I have my IANTD MOD1. I know Josh at Tacoma Scuba has offered it in the past with at least 3 people interested. I'm going to reach out to Tacoma Scuba, but I'm wondering if anyone else has other options or ideas.

I'd be interested in the class as well

- I would imagine that there would be a large amount of involuntary gagging
- I don't know about you but I'm not into swallowing it

Great class and if you own numerous Hog regulators a great savings.

Well, I'm being ignored I think. I've called Tacoma Scuba twice now and received no call back or email, so I can only assume there is no interest giving the class UPDATE: I need to be more patient, see bottom of thread. . I'm going to reach out to Hog directly and see what they say.

The classes are not part of any HOG curriculum, they are taught through TDI. You can find a list on their website: http://edge-gear.com/index.php/faq

Understood, however, from the page you linked:
Edge-Hog Dive Gear has several dealers who regularly conduct the TDI Hog Repair Technician Course and representatives from Edge-Hog Dive Gear can also conduct the course in conjunction with dive events, trade shows, and or minimum participation and support.
We clearly have a more than enough interest in the class. My open question is, if Tacoma Scuba is not interested in giving the class, then what do we do next? The seem to be the only option in a very far radius. I might be able to get a couple of Instructors to join as well. But at this point, I'm wondering what our options are.

Go to DEMA next year or BTS in the spring and take it there. (or one of the other big shows)

I got a response from Tacoma Scuba! For those of you interested in the class, please PM me what tech certification you have, which HOG regs you have and how many and what future Saturdays on your calendar will work. The class is $250 and will likely take up most of Saturday.

An update to this: I've sent Josh all of our emails, certs, number of regs. We'll be coordinating a date for this class soon. Thank you all that replied to this.
