This is a dive using Scuba equipment you are used to seeing. It is where you breath from a scuba cylinder and exhale all the gas you breathed as bubbles. Since you are not recycling or rebreathing any of the gas, the circuit is open. Closed circuit or semi-closed circuit is where divers use "rebreathers" and rebreath the majority of their gas. 100% of the gas can never be rebreathed, so a very small amount is exhaled as bubbles.

Do you have to be a certain weight or body type to be a scuba diver?
No, you don't need a certain body type to scuba dive. Because you use flippers to SCUBA dive, you can be a very lousy swimmer and learn to SCUBA dive. You may look stupid with a very tight wet suit during scuba diving, but you can dive. When I got certified, I learned that you have a very slightly higher chance of the Bends during scuba diving, but this is a small percentage. The pros of scuba diving outweigh the cons.
