🇹🇭 RAID Thailand has a new look 🤩
RAID HQ has introduced regional logos, and RAID Thailand now carries colours that reflect where we train, live, and dive.
For us, this isn’t about branding for the sake of branding.
It’s about identity, community, and representation, without losing what makes RAID strong worldwide.
Our environments here in Thailand are unique.
So are the people, the languages, and the paths divers take toward becoming professionals.
Recognising that local identity while maintaining global consistency is a positive step forward.
Standards don’t change 💯
The commitment to good training, safe practices, and professional conduct stays the same wherever you dive.
We're interested to hear your thoughts.
Do you feel this reflects RAID Thailand and its community well?
