RAID Nitrox (Deco 40) Speciality Course with DIVE Northampton

This programme qualifies divers, with standard SCUBA equipment to dive to 40 metres and complete dives with mandatory decompression stop requirements for up to a maximum of 10 minutes, whilst breathing Air or Nitrox. This is a viable alternative to the more traditional Technical route and is ideal for those divers that want to extend their dive time and explore the possibilities of limited decompression diving without investing in Technical equipment and courses.

We will also spend any time necessary going over the theory here at the Dive Centre if there are any areas that you want to review.

There will then be a pool-based Review of your Diving skills to brush-up on anything that is a little rusty. This will include a Stamina and Watermanship skills review and Dive Planning Assignments.
