Why DSAT Tec Deep Diver?

The DSAT Tec Deep Diver course takes you past recreational diving and immerses you in the world of technical diving.   This program is split into two parts: Tec Deep 1 and Tec Deep 2.

DSAT Tec Deep Diver 1

The Tec Deep 1 training allows you to stay deep longer to maximum of 130 feet using up to 60% Nitrox.   These dives are Extended Range no-decompression diving.

After successful completion of the DSAT Tec Deep 1 Diver course you'll be able to conduct gas-switch extended no-decompression dives using air and enriched air to a depth of 130 feet.

DSAT Tec Deep Diver 2

The Tec Deep 2 training allows you to stay deep longer to maximum of 165 feet using up to 100% Nitrox.  These dives are Decompression Dives.

After successful completion of the DSAT Tec Deep 2 Diver course you'll be able to conduct gas-switch decompression dives and accelerated decompression dives using air and enriched air to a depth of 165 feet.

Medical Concerns or Questions?

If you are currently under the care of a Medical Doctor, or have a pre-existing medical condition that requires permission from a Physician, you will need to have a signed Medical Release form from your doctor before you can participate in any in-water activities.

To obtain a medical release form and view some conditions that would require a doctors release, download the PADI Medical Release Form here.
