The ultimate course in deep diving. Diving trimix extends the boundaries to only your personal limits. No time, no depth limit other than self imposed makes this the culmination of your deep training. You will be required to be totally self sufficient, carrying gasses that could be hypoxic or hyperoxic. You will learn to dive well beyond the accepted depth and time envelopes and you will assume the added risk that this entails.

Course
This Program is designed for those individuals already involved in deep diving activities
Trimix affords a safer means for deep-water exploration for divers who must dive deep or perform with a clear head at the intermediate depths.
The IANTD Trimix Diver Program establishes the need to be self-sufficient/reliant.
A minimum of 200 minutes of open-water run time completed within three Trimix dives to depths between 50 meters and 79 meters
All depths must be worked up to incrementally with no increase greater than 12 meters from one dive to the next
One dive must be to at least 60 meters or deeper
Theory will be covered between dives. Pre reading will help the smooth running of the course.
