Rebreather Mod 2

The Rebreather Mod 2 course is the follow on to the Rebreather Mod 1 course This course trains the diver in the theory and practical skills necessary to safely dive a closed circuit rebreather in the medium trimix range (40-60m) using a normoxic (e.g at least 19% O2) trimix as a diluant.

On the course you will learn how to plan your gas management with regards to mixes and amounts required and conduct pre planned decompression stops using the rebreather.

The program runs over 3-5 days and will cover between 5 and 6 hours of in water time on the rebreather over a minimum of 4 dives down to a maximum depth of 60m
