TDI Extended Range/ Trimix
This is getting real
Train hard to dive easy
We are getting deeper
Again, you have two different paths:
TDI Extended Range gives you 55 m maximum depth using air/ nitrox as the bottom gas. Personally, I do not support deep air diving, therefore I highly recommend to take the second option. The skills are the same but you will use trimix as backgas to reduce narcosis
In TDI Trimix course you will learn to handle multiple stages, planning normoxic trimix dives up to 60 m minimum 18% oxygen. With this certification, you can visit some cool sites as HMS Stubborn or Le Polynesien. Equivalent narcotic depth, gas reserve, equipment selection, backup planning are just some of the topics we will cover.
At this level you need to be able to hold position for extended time even in blue water, have strong skills. This is not the course to learn how to dive. This course will make you ready for the Advanced Trimix course.
One tip:
It is always wise to plan a few days extra on your holiday when you come for a Trimix course. For example, just in case we have to postpone a dive because of bad weather
How long does it take?
The course takes a minimum of 5 days to finish.
