Description

eLearning, a session with setup, gear configuration, and theory. And training dives in open water.

To enroll in the course, you must be at least 18 and hold a minimum Open Water Scuba Diver certification.

During the course, you can learn about gas matching procedures, gas management with independent cylinders, psychological considerations in technical diving, and equipment considerations such as cylinder options, regulator options, buoyancy compensator/harness options, proper weighting, and equipment configurations.

You will also learn about communication techniques, problem-solving in a sidemount configuration, diving in tight or confined spaces, conservation, water entries/exits, and specific S-drills for sidemount diving.

You must demonstrate various propulsion techniques, buoyancy control, trim, gas switching, gas management, conservation, awareness, and back referencing techniques and deploy a dSMB.

Once you complete the course, you’ll be a certified TDI Sidemount Diver. You can go sidemount diving without supervision,

The course is available in multiple languages: English, Português, Français, Español, and Deutsch.
