TDI Advanced Nitrox & Decompression Procedures Course
This course combines both the Advanced Nitrox and Decompression Procedures courses to offer the ultimate Technical diver package enabling you to effectively plan and conduct decompression dives up to a maximum depth of 45 meters and decompressing on Nitrox mixes up to 100% Oxygen.
It is more intensive, but more efficient. It includes 6 nitrox dives and covers all the topics required to use mixtures from 40% to 100% for decompression as well as the ability to perform accelerated decompression
​
This is a 4 day course.
