Technical Diver training is not for everyone. The potential risks are substantially greater than those posed by recreational diving. The prerequisite training, skills and experience are steep — and students must make a substantial investment in equipment.

Nevertheless, the rewards to those who can meet this challenge are great, with perhaps the greatest being the satisfaction that comes with “Doing it Right.”

Tech Fundamentals

Technical diving involves the use of vastly different equipment. Dive planning and procedures are different as well. To help ease this transition, we offer the Tech Fundamentals course, which provides a comprehensive introduction to the equipment and procedures tech divers use and follow. More…

Trimix Diver

Past depths approaching 150 feet or more, nitrogen narcosis can affect both safety and enjoyment. To mitigate these effects, we dilute the potentially narcotic gasses in the breathing mixture with the non-narcotic gas helium. The resulting mix of nitrogen, oxygen and helium is known as Trimix.
