PADI Tec Basics
Technical Diving requires a high level of mastery in skills that are necessary for survival on dives beyond the recreational limits. Divers without much experience who wish to learn valuable skills to practice on their journey to becoming technical divers can benefit from a program designed to introduce skills to you so that you can master them while you recreational dive. The course teaches you the basics of equipment and helps you learn more about the skills and disciplines you need to master before becoming a technical diver.
The PADI Tec Basics course is designed to be a bridge from PADI recreational courses to PADI technical courses providing recreational divers an opportunity to gain exposure to tec diving and learn and practice entry level tec diving skills. It introduces recreational divers to tec diving without them having to make the larger commitment (in terms of equipment, time and cost) of the more advanced TecRec courses. PADI Tec Basics dive scope is within recreational limits, using segments from the PADI technical courses. Likewise, this specialty course may be credited toward DSAT Tec40.
