Why take the CCR Trimix Diver course?
The Closed-Circuit Rebreather Trimix Diver course develops CCR Normoxic Trimix divers by gradually building and solidifying the skills and knowledge needed for deeper technical dives and longer decompression times.
The course also builds divers’ capacity to handle challenges in a comfortable learning environment by emphasizing higher physical and mental fitness and a deeper understanding of rebreather management, maintenance procedures, and safety protocols.
Who is it for?
The Closed-Circuit Rebreather Trimix Diver course is for graduates of the CCR Normoxic Trimix Diver course who want to deepen their knowledge of advanced CCR diving in more demanding environments.
What will I learn?
Course outcomes include, but are not limited to, a competent and comfortable rebreather diver with solid personal and team skills, robust knowledge of rebreather function, underwater operation and failures, competence while performing deep bailout to open-circuit, including open-circuit ascent protocol involving gas switches, rotations, and loss of decompression gases; and the ability to plan advanced technical dive missions, including gas management, absorbent canister endurance strategies, oxygen toxicity management, and decompression strategies.
