Technical Sidemount Scuba Dive Training 500

Steve, thank you so much for the online courses. I learned more online than what I expected. I find that your videos are much more helpful than books and other materials. I plan to learn the most important lessons again before taking the water course. Regards Rafal

You don't need sidemount for your cave diver training. We recommend our CDS Basics Orientation program.

Water Diver —

Our experiences are UNIQUE as they are personalized for you, and your group. From exploring our local barrier reefs, swimming with wild dolphins and sharks, discovering shipwrecks, and cleaning up our oceans, we’ve got an experience for you.

Computer-aided instruction forms an integral part of most courses we teach. Why? The reason is simple. eLearning helps students get in the water earlier and spend more of their time there. That is why we charge no additional for any applicable online eLearning programs. These are typically $140. This can translate into an additional day in-water instruction. That is how valuable it is. Priceless.

Steve, just wanted you to know how much we appreciate your online Sidemount PCB course. I was unable to complete my PADI sidemount PCB training because my XDeep harness system wasn't working the way I wanted. Although the instructor was very knowledgeable, I could tell that he wasn't a true sidemounter. I had signed up for your free online course which was great, but... read onSteve, I wanted to thank your amazing online Sidemount PCB class. I was unable to get my PADI sidemount PCB training done last year because my XDeep harness system wasn't as streamlined as I needed it to be. Although the instructor was very knowledgeable, it was clear that he didn’t live and breathe sidemount. I had signed up for your course, which was great but didn't give me enough. I am going to Florida to complete my Overhead Environment training. I wanted to make sure my skills were up to date. After viewing your entire online course, WOW! Your suggestions were invaluable in helping me rebuild my XDeep bungee harness. Your instructions helped me rebuild my entire bungee system. I also redid my attachment points and wing. I now feel like my setup is right and I'm very comfortable in the water. I want to thank you once again. Next, I want to master all my skills. This is easier because my harness is correctly set up. Wish I had spent the money to get your training a full year ago. Take care and keep the updates coming. Thanks, Jason read less

Sidemount PCB can provide a number of benefits for any diver, but is especially well suited for cave diving. (It was, after all, cave divers who invented sidemount.) Among these benefits:

Sidemount is not something you'll be doing during cave diving training. Instead, you should look at our CDS Basics Orientation Course.

Cave Diving Equipment
