Sidemount Specialty: July : part 2 (0 spaces remaining)
Redundancy, Streamlining, Comfort, Flexibility...
Sidemount Diver is a modern program designed to include all the current Sidemount procedures suitable for a range of diving disciplines.
Sidemount, although invented for cave diving, has become a mainstream recreational and technical equipment configuration. It allows for longer dives and provides the diver with the increased
redundancy that comes with carrying cylinders, and increased ease of access to the cylinders due to their location.
As teh second part of the course, days 3 & 4 are spent in open water, running practical skills and drills in a realistic environment.
