The Deco 40 certification allows divers to extend their bottom time by performing decompression stops. This course is designed to be done with your normal recreational equipment with the addition of a pony bottle for safety. With appropriate practices it can be possible to safely double the bottom times of dives, even at depths of 130 feet! A minimum of 2 days are required and you must already have a strong comfort level with your basic skills.

It must be done in twinset or side mount and qualifies the diver to stay beyond no decompression limits and subsequently perform decompression stops during the ascent. This course allows for trimix as the bottom gas and accelerated decompression with a stage bottle gas of up to 100 oxygen. Maximum depth is 165 feet/50 meters. Typically takes five days.

This training takes you into the exciting world of flooded caverns. You will learn how to handle the "what ifs" of having a ceiling above you while scuba diving. Divers can expect to master low silt propulsion techniques, guide line management, zero viz situations and more. The class is conducted over at least 2 days and is best done in Florida or other location with beautiful caverns.

Cave 1 teaches divers the skills necessary to venture past the daylight zone and further into the cave. This class must be done in twinset or sidemount configuration and some cave specific additional equipment. After earning certification you will be qualified to conduct dives up to 1,000 feet into the cave, perform a "T" navigation away from the main line, and penetrate in using the rule of thirds. Cavern and cave 1 together typically take 5 days.
Cave 2
Cave 1
Cave 2
This training provides you with an understanding of navigating off the main line for further exploration of the cave. You will learn jumps, gaps, circuits, traverses, and the use of stage bottles to extend gas supply. This level also covers accellerated decompression with up to 100% oxygen for longer bottom times.
