S3:E10 | Why doesn't Scuba Diving have big-named sponsors like other outdoor hobbies & water sports? | Finally, the app called Buddy is bringing divers into the mainstream & getting them seen. Tijd: 12:22
Scuba Diving ALAS has a company supporting the entire sport, including both recreational, professional and social media enthusiasts. Like many other outdoor sports and recreational activities, the Dive with buddy team is catching scuba diving up. This interview takes place with the mastermind behind the Buddy App, Alexis Jabbour. With the 2023 launch happening as we speak, Buddy is quickly making waves throughout the industry as a disruptive platform. It’s changing the landscape for scuba divers, freedivers, and snorkelers with constant new features rolling out with each monthly update.
Not only can dives be validated and buddies be added to a dive that show up in the dive log, it’s also an easy way to find and tip those who deserve it!
The Buddy Dive Log app has the best of all the agencies like PADI, SSI, NAUI, and goes well beyond the capabilities of Manufacturer apps like Garmin, Suunto, Apple Watch and many others. It combines all the features into one, doing away with those stubborn barriers that divide the already-small industry. Connecting buddies of ALL agencies is the skeleton key of all future growth in this industry. Making sure hardworking scuba instructors, boat hands, and divemasters get paid is equally important. This app, yet again, fixes that lingering rankle within the dive industry.
Further, Alexis talks about the Charter and Dive shops features that allow those QR codes to be posted for those who pool their tips, along with an upcoming “booking platform” for facilities, shops, charters and professional operations.
It’s clean, smooth, easy to use, and is EASILY the most comprehensive diver app YET. It got me excited enough to continue interviewing and discussing this incredible new tool, and making it part of our series here on The Scuba Diving Channel.
Just a reminder, it’s even set up for those that aren’t certified yet! So literally anyone can download this app (it’s free).
