Reed owns Evolution Diving Resort on Malapascua, and teaches on more rebreather units than most instructors in the Philippines. The forums reach for his name first when asked about technical training in the Philippines: recommended for sidemount by an instructor who says he learned from him anyway, and named with David Joyce as "professional, rigorous and thoughtful about tech diving". Google reviews cover an Extended Range Instructor course run with his team, and a day spent reworking a visiting CCR diver's kit for warm water before getting back in the water. The site itself is part of the appeal — wrecks at 50m and the thresher shark dive from the same boat.
