BWRAF is the order in which you should perform the buddy check. BWRAF stands for: BCD, Weight System, Releases, Air and Final OK.
Steps for the PADI Buddy Check Scuba Diving BWRAF:
1. First we need to test each others BCD's
2. Using the LPI button, start inflating your buddy's BCD (you can do this at the same time to save some time
3. Once you are sure the power inflator works and your buddy's BCD is not leaking, then deflate the BCD.
4. Next step for the Buddy Check in Scuba Diving is to Orally inflate each others BCD, this time a few breaths will be enough as you already tested for leaks before.
5. After checking the BCD, check the weight system, making sure nothing is entangled, streamlined, no weights are missing and that the weight system quick release mechanisms works properly
6. Then check the releases on your buddy's dive equipment, no entanglement, all releases secure, especially check your Buddy's Cylinder Band / Strap
7. After that, the most important part of the buddy check scuba diving is checking your buddy's Air
8. First make your you Buddy's Air is fully open (Double check which way is open and close on the side of the turn valve)
9. After you both checked each others tank valve, grab your regulators and purge, smell and breath from them while looking at your SPG (When you breath the pressure gauge needle should NOT move)
10. Then check the alternate air source on each other for the Buddy Check
11. Finally the Final OK in the Buddy Check, which means fully check all the dive equipment, do we have fins, a scuba mask, snorkel, are all hoses streamlined... If all good then give the Final OK to your Buddy and then we are ready to Scuba Dive!
