At Silent World, we want you diving. And if diving deeper and longer are what you want, we'll train you for it.

 

TDI's Decompression Procedures course will help you get you the training you need to spend more quality time below water safely.

 
We will examine the theory, methods, and procedures of planned stage decompression diving. 

 

To teach you how to plan and conduct a standard staged decompression dive, we will review, and practice with, the necessary equipment for safer decompression dives.

 

We will focus on the use of redundant breathing systems and emergency deployment of lift bags for use as up lines.

 

In addition, we will emphasize buoyancy control techniques and hovering skills.
