Learn To Dive

Intro To Tech

The Intro to Tech Course is perfect for divers who have heard about technical diving and want to find out more about this interesting branch of advanced recreational diving.

This is a useful stand-alone course for the diver who wants to improve their current diving or perhaps move deeper into technical diving and learn twinset diving with various equipment configurations.

Advanced Nitrox EANx

The Advanced Nitrox EANx course provides you with the skills and knowledge to safely use the approriate EANx mix. This course can be combined with the Decompression Techniques course for accelerated staged decompression diving.

Advanced Nitrox is a great course for those wanting to extend their bottom times in shallower depths and a must for SCR or CCR divers.

Decompression Techniques

As sport divers, planned decompression is not something that we do or have been taught. The Decompression Procedures course prepares you for planned staged decompression diving. This course is your first step beyond the normal sport diving limits. Your Instructor will provide you with valuable information and skills, among the topics covered are:

• Kit set-up
• Equipment requirements
• Decompression techniques
• Decompression breathing gases
• Gas management
• Contingency planning

Extended Range - Deep Air

Certain areas of the world provide spectacular dives at depths deeper than normal recreational limits but you will not have access (or very limited access) to helium. The Extended Range course teaches you the proper techniques for utilizing compressed air as a breathing gas you won’t have to miss those dives. The Extended Range course will cover topics and skills such as:

• Equipment requirements and configuration
• Decompression options
• Use of surface marker buoys
• Buddy rescue
• Narcosis checks and management

Trimix

As your motivation to explore progresses you will find that you may want to go deeper to dive that wreck that is part of history or that cave system that you have read so much about.  One of the major limiting factors of going deeper is narcosis; Trimix Diver course shows how to minimize the effects of narcosis by adding helium to offset the nitrogen in your breathing gas. Your Instructor will teach you how to plan and execute dives utilizing as little as 18 percent oxygen and diving with a blend of helium appropriate for the planned depth. The course covers topics and skills like

• Dive team planning
• Gas matching
• Cylinder labeling
• Surface marker deployment
• Equipment configuration
• Thermal protection options

Advanced Trimix Diver

This course is the top level of training for open circuit divers wishing to dive utilizing hypoxic levels of oxygen (below 17 percent).  This course is perhaps one of the most informative and challenging and upon completion you are among some of the most elite divers. Your Instructor will teach you:

• Equipment management
• Multiple stage cylinder labeling and placement
• Complex decompression planning and contingency planning
• Dive team awareness and communication
• Gas monitoring and management
• Use of travel gasses

Advanced Wreck Diver

The Advanced Wreck course is the next step for any diver that has taken a wreck diver course. During this course, your Instructor will teach you the proper techniques for locating and planning a penetration dive. The advanced wreck course is commonly taught with other popular course such as advanced nitrox, decompression procedures, extended range, closed circuit rebreather, and trimix. The course covers topics and skills like

• Use of guidelines
• Overhead emergency procedures
• Redundant equipment requirements
• Locating and identifying wrecks
• Hazards of wreck diving
• Surveying of wrecks

Closed Circuit Rebreather

The Closed Circuit Rebreather course will to provide you with the skills and knowledge needed to safely use helium-based or trimix breathing diluent gas mixes requiring decompression with rebreathers and constant PO2.

Your training will include dive planning limits based on gas consumption of bailout stages, oxygen exposures, inert gas loading and breathing gas mixtures; navigation, diver rescue and management of a diver experiencing oxygen toxicity; ascents with ascent reel and lift bag; and stage decompression.

Mixed Gas Blender &
02 Service Technician

Mixed Gas Blender & 02 Service Technician is a great course if you plan to work in a dive center and want to be capable of providing services that other divers typically cannot, or just wish to expand your knowledge of diving gas mixtures. Covering the skills and knowledge needed to safely handle high pressure gases and prepare Nitrox and Trimix breathing gas mixtures. You’ll analyze the resulting breathing gas mixtures from your own breathing gas blending practice and master the breathing gas blending system used in training.
