Next Level of Techical Diving!

Are you an experienced scuba diver looking to take your diving to the next level? Imagine exploring the world's deepest wrecks and reefs, diving for longer periods, and experiencing the thrill of diving beyond the limits of recreational diving.

Our Extended Range Diver course is the perfect opportunity for you to unlock your potential as a diver and explore the ocean like never before. Our expert instructors will guide you through a rigorous training program that will equip you with the advanced skills and knowledge necessary to safely and confidently explore depths beyond the limits of recreational diving.

During your training, you'll learn how to use technical diving equipment and procedures, such as mixed gases and decompression stops, to extend your dive time and explore depths up to 60 meters. You'll also learn how to plan and execute complex dives, manage gas supplies, and deal with emergency situations that may arise at greater depths.

Once you've completed your training, you'll be ready to embark on your own extended range diving adventures, exploring shipwrecks, caves, and other challenging environments that few divers ever get to experience. Whether you're a recreational diver looking to take your skills to the next level or a professional diver seeking advanced training, our Extended Range Diver course is the perfect opportunity to unlock your full potential as a diver and explore the ocean like never before.

This is the first ANDI training program to cover the specific information and skills necessary to perform stage-stop required, "technical" decompression diving while minimizing the associated risk factors. Also covered: how to use various SafeAir mixtures to increase decompression efficiency and safety, gas volume management, oxygen dosage tracking and contingency planning/procedures.

This program is designed to bridge the gap between the advanced / decompression diver and the deep explorer. The ERD program is a diving oriented course with extensive practical diving included.

The ERD course may be a stand alone program or taught in conjunction with either the TSD or the TMD course but not both. The following topics will be stressed: gas supply management, decompression table selection, team functioning and mission planning relative to longer and deeper dives.  The maximum recommended depth in this program is 50 msw.  

This course prepares the diver for ultra-deep, "mission-oriented" dives and entry into the Tri-mix Exploration Program. This is an equipment intensive course requiring extensive counseling  by the ANDI ERD Instructor. So, if you're ready to take your diving to new depths, enroll in our Extended Range Diver course today and embark on the adventure of a lifetime!
