Equipment


Diving equipment

CUUEG maintains its own store of equipment for use in pool training and for hire by members to use on branch dives. This means people can dive with us without having to commit to buying all their own (expensive) equipment. The only items of kit that an individual needs to own are a mask, wetboots and fins (although we do have some for hire).

Basic Equipment Guidelines

For advice on what to look for when buying personal kit, take a look at our Basic Equipment Guidelines. Items can also be hired from the club. The club's kit is looked after by the Equipment Officer.

Air cylinders

Cylinders are filled with air using the compressor facilities in Chesterton Community College. The compressor is owned and maintained by the Cambridge 240 branch. If you are interested in helping with cylinder runs and/or becoming a compressor operator for the club, get in touch with the Air Officer.

Nitrox

CUUEG has the oxygen and equipment to allow qualified gas blenders to mix nitrox for use by qualified divers.
