TECHNICAL DIVING COURSES

 

Do you want to go deeper, extend your diving time, and advance beyond recreational diving? Take our TDI or UTD Technical Diver course to enlarge your underwater experience in safety and security.

 

The backbone of the Intro to Tech TDI and Sidemount Diver TDI courses is a mastery of buoyancy, trim (horizontal position), and propulsion, and complete familiarity with the equipment. Afterwards you will be qualified for courses that combine decompression techniques and diving with Trimix.

 

 

INTRO TO TECHNICAL DIVER TDI

 

The INTRO TO TECH course is the basic course that qualifies you for more advanced TDI courses. You will learn buoyancy techniques, trim, and propulsion, as well as the use of technical equipment and the management of diving emergencies.

Prerequisites :

- Minimum 18 years old.

- Minimu diver level : Open water diver or equivalent.

- At least 15 logged dives.

- Course duration : 5 days minimum / 5-6 dives.

- Required equipment: DIR / Hogarthian configuration (double tank).

ADVANCED NITROX DIVER TDI

 

This course teaches diving using Nitrox accelerated decompression or pure oxygen, a must for those who want to deep dive using gas mixtures.

Prerequisites :

- Minimum 18 years old

- Minimu diver level : essentials of technical diving or equivalent.

- At least 25 logged dives.

- Course duration : 4 days minimum / 6 dives.

- Required equipment: DIR / Hogarthian configuration (double tank) or Sidemount.

DECOMPRESSION PROCEDURE DIVER TDI

 

Deep diving involves decompression. During this course divers will learn to plan and execute dives with mandatory decompressions using Nitrox and/or oxygen.

Prerequisites :

- Minimum 18 years old

- Minimu diver level : Advanced Nitrox Diver.

- At least 50 logged dives.

- Course duration : 4 days minimum / 5 dives.

- Required equipment: DIR / Hogarthian configuration (double tank) or Sidemount.

EXTENDED RANGE DIVER TDI

 

This course provides the knowledge and skills needed to be able to dive to 55 meters (180 feet) using double tanks with air and decompression Nitrox and or oxygen.

Prerequisites :

- Minimum 18 years old

- Minimu diver level : Advanced Nitrox Diver and Procedure Decompression.

- At least 100 logged dives with 25 deeper than 30 meters (100 feet).

- Course duration : 4 days minimum / 6 dives.

- Required equipment: DIR / Hogarthian configuration (double tank) or Sidemount.

​

TRIMIX DIVER TDI

 

Using a normal air mix is problematic below 30 meters because it can lead to diminished awareness and create risk situations. The use of Trimix blends is strongly recommended when performing deep dives, to maintain good judgment and fully enjoy your dive. The Trimix Diver TDI course provides the knowledge and techniques required to plan and execute Trimix dives down to 60 meters (200 feet).

Prerequisites :

- Minimum 18 years old

- Minimu diver level : Advanced Nitrox Diver and Procedure Decompression.

- At least 100 logged dives with 25 deeper than 30 meters (100 feet).

- Course duration : 5 days minimum / 4 dives.

- Required equipment: DIR / Hogarthian configuration (double tank) or Sidemount.

ADVANCED TRIMIX DIVER TDI

 

The Advanced Trimix Diver TDI course provides the techniques needed to plan and execute deep dives with a hypoxic Trimix blend. Course dives are limited to 80 meters (250 feet), but at the end of the course students can dive deeper.

Prerequisites :

- Minimum 18 years old

- Minimu diver level : Extanded Range or Trimix Diver.

- At least 100 logged dives with 25 deeper than 30 meters (100 feet).

- Course duration : 5 days minimum / 4 dives.

- Required equipment: DIR / Hogarthian configuration (double tank) or Sidemount.
