What is PADI adventure diver

If you're at the age of 18 and have logged at minimum 30 dives, you can apply for a Tec SIDEMOUNT PCB Diver course. It is highly recommended to also have a PADI Enriched A Diver certification.

One of the most important innovations in the equipment cave divers now use is the move from backmounted to sidemount doubles. While a large number of cave divers now sidemount their equipment, it is possible that there are many more open-circuit sidemount cavers than backmount.

Sidemount has never been something I tried before. However, from watching his online video training, it became clear that Steve was the ideal man to show me how and give me confidence about sidemount. It was an amazing experience, and I didn't regret it! It was truly life-altering! Sidemountpcb Essentials exceeded my expectations. Steve is a great teacher, has patience, and... I was absolutely right! It was truly life-changing! Sidemount PCB Essentials was beyond my expectations. Steve is an excellent teacher. He's patient, hardworking and puts in a lot to every lesson he gives. Everything is planned and done with great attention to detail. It was an unforgettable and enjoyable experience. Sidemount PCB Essentials Course completely transformed my diving. In such a short amount of time, my awareness level and skills were higher than I could have ever imagined. Everything is in place, including the harness setup, the weight amount, position, the cylinder trim, as well as your balance in and out of water. This will make you feel calm, confident, and allow you to experience sidemount setups that are truly comfortable. The course was difficult but enjoyable. Every day started with a planning session. Each day ends with a video review and discussion about the drills we performed in the water. The learning curve is high because we had a tendency to drain our cylinders whenever we were in the water. Everything was done in a relaxed atmosphere, with great professionalism. Steve will make this course easy for you. Steve will help to make you a better diver! read less

Certification cards: We issue these only when earned. Simply taking part in a course does not guarantee certification. For cave courses, certification cards from multiple training agencies may be available. C-cards generally cost around $30 each, depending on agency. Your instructor can tell you more.

Steve, we are grateful for your support and guidance. Do not hesitate to ask questions and to explore all possibilities. It can make it difficult to progress in safety and increase your diving skills. I have been studying the online lessons for 2 years. I have practiced and honed my muscle memory, but the most important thing is that I never kept my mouth closed when others ask me questions... Read moreThanks Steve for all of your help and Vas. Doing so can hinder your safety and growth. I have been following your online instruction for over two years. I have practiced and trained my muscle memory, but I also never kept my mouth shut when other divers ask. Amazing results as they now see a better path. You were also kind enough to give me suggestions or explanations during my 2 year learning experience. There is always an opportunity for you to ask, teach and discuss. There shouldn't be stupid questions in diving. I'm sure that I will be able to ask another question in the future. Lol

Sidemount PCB staging - This is where the diver will set up cylinders with tank straps and bungee. This is when a diver uses a sidemount configuration (bungee loops, butt-plate rails, and/or bungee) to store stage/deco/cylinders in a compact manner against his torso.

The NAUI Trimix I provides you with the skills and knowledge needed to minimize the risks of utilizing helium-based trimix breathing gas mixtures for dives to a maximum depth of 200 fsw (61 msw) requiring staged-decompression and utilizing EANx mixtures and/or oxygen during decompression.

Items such as cylinders and primary lights, which my be difficult to travel with, are available for rental. Be sure to alert us if you will need any of these.

We can offer the SDI course if requested. However, we only offer the TDI course by default. This can be taken as a stand-alone program, but our students usually combine it with the Apprentice Cave Diver course.
