Courses

IANTD Advanced Nitrox Program
The Advanced Nitrox Diver Program is an entry level Technical diving program introducing disciplines involved in technical dive planning, deep diving theory, fuller understanding of enriched air in recreational diving and gas switching techniques, certifying the diver to make dives beyond recreational no-decompression limits.

Course Content
•    Two hours minimum confined water skills development sessions
•    Four open water dives with a minimum of 120 minutes bottom time, two of which must be between 30 – 42 meters
•    All dives on Nitrox 22-40% bottom mix.
•    41 – 50% Nitrox used on simulated and real decompression stops.
•    Decompression stops limited to a maximum of 10 minutes.
•    Academic presentations.

Prerequisites
•    Advanced Open Water Diver
•    Nitrox (EANx) certified
•    IANTD Deep Diver or equivalent. Equivalency is defined as AOW diver with 50 logged dives – Ten deeper than 27 metres and also to pass the IANTD Deep Diver exam as a pre-assessment.

Please contact us for an individual quotation.

The price includes:-
•    IANTD Advanced EANx Diver manual
•    IANTD Wall certificate and C-card.
•    The use of appropriate wing, harness, Oxygen clean cylinders, regulators and boat.

The course price does not included gases (Oxygen) and we typically charge around RM 25 for a single 80 CuFt. (11.25 Litre) filled with EANx32.
Student requires Two plastic underwater slates or appropriate submersible dive tables, line and reel with lift bag or safety balloon, knife, surface signal device such as Dive Alert and preferably own means of monitoring depth, time, and direction. This equipment will be available for rent.

Notes
Although not a requirement, a Divemaster level of knowledge of diving theory is highly desirable, and without it students may find it difficult to meet the equivalency pre-assessment criteria. It is not however necessary to complete a full IANTD Deep Diver course. A combination of Deep Diver\Advanced EANx is the best option. This course takes four to five days, includes six dives with at least 160 minutes of bottom time and at least four dives deeper than 30m\100 Ft., also includes further knowledge development on areas such as physical and psychological aspects for deep diving gas management, breathing techniques etc. For this combined program contact us for an individual quotation. This does not include the certification fee or Manual for Deep Diver, which are optional.

IANTD Recreational Trimix
This program is designed to provide recreational divers with a breathing medium to safely extend their diving depths by using Equivalent Narcosis Depths (END's) in the 12m to 24m range. All dives are no stop dives to a depth of 30 metres or deeper, up to students previous qualification level.

Course content
•    One confined water skill development session.
•    Two Trimix dives, no deeper than 39 metres.
•    Trimix gas mixes with 28% to 40% Oxygen and Helium concentrations yielding and END no greater than 24 metres, emphasising the use of      28/25.
•    Academic presentations.

Prerequisites
•    Advanced Open Water Diver
•    EANx Diver
•    Show proof of at least 15 logged dives
•    Must be a minimum of 15 years of age with parent of guardian authorisation.

The cost of this course using your own equipment is - Please contact us for an individual quotation.
The price includes:-
•    IANTD Recreational Trimix Diver manual
•    IANTD Wall certificate and C-card.
•    The use of appropriate wing, harness, Oxygen clean cylinders, regulators and boat.

The course price does not included gases (Oxygen or Helium) and we typically charge around RM 25 for a single 80 CuFt. (11.25 Litre) filled with EANx32.
This course can be combined with the Nitrox course if not already a Nitrox diver.

IANTD Advanced Recreational Trimix
The Advanced Recreational Trimix Program, is an entry level technical diving program providing a fuller understanding of the use of Enriched Air and Trimix, within recreational diving limits. It expands upon dive planning, techniques, and deep diving theory, certifying the diver to make dives beyond recreational no-decompression limits. It is a prerequisite for the IANTD Normoxic Course.

Course content
•    Two hours minimum confined water skill development session.
•    Maximum depth 45 metres.
•    Four boat dives for a minimum of 120 minutes of bottom time, at least two of which will be on Trimix with a maximum Equivalent Narcosis Depth of 24 metres.
•    41 - 50% Nitrox used on simulated and real decompression stops.
•    Decompression stops limited to a maximum of 15 minutes.
•    Academic presentations.

Prerequisites
•    Advanced Open Water Diver
•    Recreational Trimix diver certified
•    IANTD Deep Diver or equivalent. Equivalency is defined as AOW diver with 50 logged dives – ten deeper than 27 metres and also to pass the Deep Diver exam as a pre-assessment.

IANTD Normoxic Trimix
This course adds to the skills learnt on either the Advanced Nitrox or the Advanced Recreational Trimix Course. This is a mixed gas course that goes beyond the boundaries of recreational dive depths, using Normoxic (no less than 21% oxygen) Trimix as a bottom gas and up to 100% oxygen for decompression. It further expands upon dive planning and decompression theory allowing divers to make dives to a depth of 60 metres, and is a prerequisite to the full Trimix course.

Course content
•    Confined water skill development session to review and assess skills prior to open water dives.
•    Maximum depth 60 metres.
•    Minimum of four boat dives for a minimum of 240 minutes of bottom time, at least three of which will be on Trimix with a maximum Equivalent Narcosis Depth of 36 metres.
•    Up to 100% oxygen used on simulated and real decompression stops.
•    Decompressions stop time not limited.
•    Academic presentations.

Prerequisites
•    Advanced Nitrox diver or Advanced Recreational Trimix diver.
•    Must provide proof of a minimum of 100 logged dives, of which at least 30 were deeper than 27 metres, or sufficient experience doing technical dives to satisfy the instructor that the student has the ability and knowledge to continue into this level of training.
•    Must be minimum of 18 years of age.
