Tec Sidemount Instructor Course PHP 25,000.00
With Sidemount diving increasing in popularity and finding its way not only into tec diving but even recreational diving for open water and up, now is the time to get involved in this unique style of diving. Click here if you are unfamiliar with Sidemount diving.
What is Sidemount?
Sidemount is an alternative equipment configuration, originally used by cave divers to reduce their profile allowing access to smaller spaces and restrictions. Sidemount has found its way in Tec and now recreational diving because of the added benefits it provides divers.
Traditionally divers have worn tanks on back mounted BCD or back plates, whilst used by almost all divers it does present a few problems.
For one most of your life supporting equipment is out of sight behind you head, should it develop a leak it can take a while to react resulting in a lot of lost gas, also valves may difficult reach. Sidemount places your valves in front of you making it easy to see, and much easier to access, if there is a leak you will know the instant it occurs and the valves are perfectly placed to deal with the problem.
There are added safety aspects which appeal to recreational divers. Recreational divers typically carry a single tank, recreational Sidemount divers carry two. This provides more breathing gas, easing concerns for big breathers, and provides a redundant alternative if you experience an equipment failure. Added benefits include easier equipment transportation out of the water, reduced back strain and more freedom of movement. Technical divers, accustomed to two tanks, may question the benefit of Sidemount, the answer is true redundancy.
Twin tank divers connect their tanks by an isolator manifold which joins the two tanks for a normal dive, and can isolate them from each other in an emergency. Doing this in an emergency steals valuable seconds from a diver, and potentially lots of breathing gas, not a good situation if you have a deco schedule ahead of you. As with recreational Sidemount the valves are in front of the diver, you will see hear and feel a leak the instant it occurs. Unlike twin tanks, with an isolator valve, the gas in your second Sidemount cylinder is unaffected during the leak, and resolved quicker with less effort, simply put its safer and easier.
Carrying bulky equipment around on your back can easily result in injury, especially on moving platforms such as a boat, with Sidemount you may enter the water fully geared up, have your tanks handed to you and clip them on, simple, easy and relaxed.
In addition to these factors, Sidemount still provides all of the same benefits it did to the cave divers that pioneered it, expect to see more and more divers diving Sidemount as this catches on.
The PADI Tec Sidemount course is designed as an equipment orientation, it is a 5 dives course that focuses on enabling you to combine the configuration with your current skill and certification level. There is some simulated decompression stops making it a great taster of tec diving, once complete you are able to use Sidemount on any of the Tec Rec courses.
For divers who have not yet caught the Tec bug PADI offers a 4 dive recreational Sidemount specialty allowing you to combine this equipment configuration and use it within the confines of your current certification level.
