c-19 TEAM

Formed in 2006 c-19 is a group of rebreather divers who create projects and products reflecting our interest in the underwater world. All money from the projects is reinvested in new projects and expeditions. Our unique attitude allows us not only to be open and honest but also creative and professional.

Crispin Brake is an underwater cameraman and CCR diver. He produced and directed his first documentary ('Ultimate Dive Adventures') in feature length in 2003. Born and brought up in England, he has a BA in photography and Media. He is the creative mind behind many of the ideas that shape the products of c-19. A diving instructor himself, he worked as an underwater videographer and graphic designer for many years in Egypt. He filmed, edited and authored the CCR Skill DVD.

Rifat Guerboy is a technical diving instructor and has dived spots and depths that not many have seen before. He has lived and worked as a technical diving instructor for many years in the Red Sea in Egypt and now also teaches in Switzerland, Germany, Austria or England (in English, German and French).
Born and brought up in Switzerland, his mixed cultural background makes him an interesting person to talk to, not only about diving. He has a MA in German and History, is a teacher in cinematography (having written and directed over half a dozen short films) and in 2006 with Crispin Brake produced the world’s first CCR Skill DVD.
