Open Circuit Diving Courses
Open Circuit Diving
Advanced Nitrox:
Our Advanced Nitrox course is perfect for divers looking to continue their education and utilise enriched air nitrox as a breathing gas to extend no-decompression limits at depth. This course will help you extend your bottom time and advance your technical diving knowledge. You’ll learn the benefits, hazards, and proper procedures for using nitrox mixes with 22-100% oxygen content. The course also covers cylinder labelling, analysing nitrox mixtures, and gas blending procedures.
Decompression Procedures:
Nutty’s Decompression Procedures course prepares you for planned staged decompression diving, with a maximum operating depth of 45 metres (150 feet). This course is your first step beyond normal sports diving limits. You’ll learn decompression dive planning, including decompression gas choices, emergency and contingency planning, and much more.
Extended Range:
The Extended Range course is designed for certified Advanced Nitrox and Decompression Procedures divers looking to take the next step into technical diving. This course teaches you the proper techniques for using compressed air as a breathing gas, with a maximum depth of 55 metres (180 feet). You’ll learn equipment requirements, the hazards of deep air diving, and how to competently utilise air for dives requiring staged decompression using nitrox mixtures or oxygen.
Trimix:
If you’re looking to expand your depth range and reduce narcosis during deep dives, the Trimix Diver course is for you. One of the major challenges of deep diving is narcosis, and this course shows you how to minimise its effects by adding helium to offset the nitrogen in your breathing gas. You’ll learn advanced decompression dive planning, decompression dive procedures, and the management of multiple decompression/stage cylinders.
Advanced Trimix:
Our Advanced Trimix course is the pinnacle of training for open circuit divers. If you wish to dive to depths as deep as 100 metres (330 feet) using hypoxic levels of oxygen (below 17%), this course is for you. You’ll learn advanced decompression dive planning and procedures, management of multiple (minimum of 3) decompression/stage cylinders, cylinder labelling, and analysing trimix, nitrox, and other gas mixtures.
