    SDI deep diving speciality info

    Hi,

    Would anyone know the requirements and inclusions of SDI's deep diving speciality? I tried contacting SDI/TDI at worldhq@tdisdi.com (from tdisdi.com) but I haven't gotten a response from them for more than a week already. Or a working SDI/TDI email would help too ;-)

    Regards,

    Reggie

During the course, your SDI Instructor will take you on two covers skills like

    Proper descents
    Air management
    Effects of nitrogen narcosis
    Dive planning,
    By the end of the course your knowledge and comfort level will have increased. The Deep Diver course has a maximum depth of 40m/130, the suggested sport diving limit.

    It's a minimum of 4 dives. Classroom would cover what fire diver mentioned on his post.
