TDI Extended Range Course in Phuket
4 days - 44900 baht
Push the limits of your air diving with TDI Extended Range Course! You will learn how to independently plan and perform dives to depths of up to 55 meters using air as bottom gas and two stages with deco gases (usually EANx50 and oxygen).
Having two decompression stages allows you to increase the depth and duration of your dives while significantly reducing decompression time through the use of oxygen. This course will be useful for those who want to dive to depths of up to 55 meters, but are not yet ready to use expensive trimix.
Here in Phuket we offer twinset or sidemount configuration for TDI ER course.
What you will learn on the TDI ER course
During theoretical classes, you will become more familiar with the theory of decompression, remember the basics of physics and physiology of deep dives, and gain the necessary knowledge about teamwork.
As part of the Extended Range practical training, you will complete a minimum of 5 dives over three days (minimum requirement is 4 dives, two of which are deeper than 40 m, all dives are deeper than 30 m).
You will learn the correct technique for using two deco tanks to perform effective decompression. Particular attention in the course is paid to buoyancy, trim, communication with partners and emergency procedures during deco dives.
