ALL NITROX DIVER
This course is an exceptional and unique resource for introducing the specific issues of technical diving. It aims to achieve a comprehensive understanding of the matters related to diving with hyperoxic mixtures, their physiological limits, and the
planning and use of decompression tables. O2 levels ranging from 22% to 99%.
DECOMPRESSION DIVER
NITROX DECO DIVER (-45m)
The aim of the NITROX DECO Diver course (2/3 tanks) is to provide the diver with knowledge of the main planning and management techniques specific to decompression dives. Through this course, the student learns the proper procedures
and starts to become accustomed to performing ascents with decompression stops. It can be an interesting training in itself or an
important step toward the following technical courses: the TEC DEC
CORRECTLY DIVER
The Correctly Diver course is intended for divers who want to refine their buoyancy and trim control performance, while also learning to fin using different techniques, including backward finning. Through this training, divers will enhance their comfort and safety levels by mastering buoyancy, trim, and finning in any diving environment.
TRIMIX DIVER
TRIMIX LIGHT Normoxic
This course represents a final goal for those who do not wish to carry heavy equipment and do not aim to reach very deep depths. It allows surpassing the limit of recreational scuba diving of 40 meters, in complete safety, reducing the risks of oxygen toxicity and, above all, diminishing nitrogen narcosis, ensuring greater clarity and awareness (2/3 tanks). 1 tank of 15 liters, 1 twin tank of 10+10 liters, 1 tank of 10 liters EAN and/or a minimum 5-liter O2 tank.
TRIMIX II
TRIMIX 70 DIVER Hypoxic
This course represents the culmination of the journey that began with the Nitrox course. It enables divers to go beyond the boundaries of recreational air diving in complete safety, ensuring greater clarity and awareness, reducing the risks of
oxygen toxicity, and especially minimizing the insidious dangers of narcosis. Recommended minimum: 3/4 cylinders; 12+12 liters twin tank; 1 cylinder 10 liters EAN; 1 oxygen cylinder minimum 5 liters.
Minimum age: 20 years
TRIMIX III
TRIMIX 100 DIVER Hypoxic
After adequate experience has been acquired with Trimix diving techniques, this certification allows for to increase of diving depth. This level includes a comprehensive course, featuring both practical and theoretical phases, always conducted by a certified instructor. This course aims to deepen specific topics related to Trimix diving, such as gas blending, surface assistance, and the most challenging and the most effective diving techniques for deeper depths.
Minimum age: 20 years
SAILOR ASSISTANT
TRIMIX 100 DIVER Hypoxic
This course is a remarkable and essential resource for acquiring knowledge about diving-related topics, through the lens of the surface assistant during challenging offshore dives, involving descents and ascents into the blue. It is designed to achieve a complete understanding of the issues related to this kind of diving, it recommends the best method currently available to provide divers with the most suitable support from the boat, while also respecting the long decompression times required in this type of diving.
Minimum age: 20 years
MNEMONIC DECO SYSTEM
ARIA E NITROX
The Mnemonic Deco System Air & Nitrox is an innovative and advanced mnemonic system with a significant level of conservatism. Taking into account the issue of compartmentalization, according to the Buhlmann algorithm, the global conservatism (GF Hi) stands within a range at the user's discretion, between 70% and 80% of the maximum admissible value (pure
Buhlmann). The method performs a check on the gradients and takes advantage of linearity to generate tissue elimination with reduced pressure peaks. At the same time, it extends the duration of ascent stops to optimize the oxygen window while always keeping a ppO2 level of 1.5 ata, to create the conditions for effectively reducing overall oxidative stress. A further feature of this
approach is its capability to handle the deco profile during the planning stage, according to specific evaluation parameters, along with the possibility of modifying the deco plan in real-time if required.
