Decompression Procedures Diver
Your first true technical certification — staged decompression done properly.
About The Course
This is the dive where you deliberately accrue a decompression obligation and bring yourself back up, on plan, with redundancy. Decompression Procedures teaches staged decompression with stage cylinders to around 45 metres.
Real procedure, real redundancy, real consequences managed by training. It is the course that turns a confident recreational diver into a technical diver, and the gateway to trimix and the deep wrecks.
