IANTD Advanced Nitrox
Introduction to decompression diving with nitrox. The goal of the IANTD Advanced Nitrox course is to introduce the experienced diver to slightly longer in-water exposures with resultant decompression profiles. Using nitrox as your bottom gas and up to 50% nitrox as a decompression gas you will accelerate your decompression stops as well as increasing your available bottom time. This course is ideal for those of you who wish you could stay on that favourite dive just that little bit longer. The course covers equipment considerations, oxygen tracking, and decompression dive planning.
Includes:IANTD Advanced Nitrox Manual & certification. Pre-requistites:IANTD Basic Nitrox Diver or equivalent, minimum 15 years of age. Cost$850
IANTD Normoxic Trimix Diver
The IANTD Normoxic Trimix Diver course is the next stage in your technical diving education after Technical Nitrox. You will further expand on the IANTD Advanced Nitrox or Technical Nitrox course to plan dives safely to depths between 39 - 60 metres with extended bottom times. You will learn to plan your breathing medium, now containing helium to suit the depth of your dive and use up to 80% oxygen as a decompression gas to greatly reduce your decompression times. Trimix affords a means of reducing narcosis on dives at greater depths. At this level of training the oxygen content in your bottom mix will not be less than 21% thus the term Normoxic. The course is equipment intensive and much time is devoted to equipment configurations and redundancy planning. Oxygen is discussed in greater detail, as to is carbon dioxide. A pool session to practice skill is included followed by four dives up to a depth of 60 metres practicing dive planning and gas management, shut-downs and switches.
Includes:IANTD Normoxic Trimix Manual & certification. Pre-requisites:IANTD Advanced Nitrox Diver or Technical Nitrox Diver, minimum of 18 years of age. 150 logged dives with 50 deeper than 37 metres Cost$900
Recreational Trimix $850 (But combined with Advanced Nitrox $900)
