Are you ready to push your limits even further and explore the next frontier of technical diving?
The PADI Tec 65 Course takes your technical diving to the next level, allowing you to explore deeper depths while utilizing trimix gas mixtures to minimize narcosis and improve safety. This course builds upon the skills developed in Tec 50, introducing helium-based gases and advanced decompression procedures. As your instructor, I will guide you through complex dive planning, gas management, and problem-solving techniques to ensure you are fully prepared for deep technical dives.
What You’ll Learn
Plan & Execute Deeper Dives: Conduct technical dives to a maximum depth of 65 meters/213 feet.
Trimix Diving & Gas Selection: Learn to use helium-based gas mixtures to reduce narcosis and increase safety.
Multiple Gas Switches & Decompression Planning: Develop precision in managing multiple decompression cylinders and extended decompression schedules.
Advanced Equipment Configuration: Fine-tune your Tec diving gear for deeper and longer dives.
Emergency Procedures & Risk Management: Master handling potential Tec diving emergencies at extreme depths.
Course Combinations: Strengthen your technical diving expertise by integrating this course with Tec Sidemount Diver for enhanced gas management or Blender Trimix to refine your gas blending skills.
