I do bubble checks as the first thing in the water. Gas leak usually would need to take me out of water for repair, so it is waste of time to do it at the end. A lot of other problems (i.e. cord entalgment) can be solved in water. ElBacio

Do you mean that you would not go for Adv. Nitrox course to a instructor if he is not also certified as an instructor of Deco Procedures, Extended Range, Trimix and Adv. Trimix? Some people change instructors for different courses just to see different points of view, different experience...

Hello, Last Friday the "SDI/TDI Instructor Trainer Workshop - Red Sea 2009" has finished in Hurghada (Egypt). There are eight new SDI/TDI Trainers. The program was conducted by Dennis Pulley, who was assisted by Juergen Hitzler. The person in charge of logistics was Olga El Sherif from TDI...

Hello, There is student certified with "Adv. Nitrox" and "Recreational Trimix" from another agency. He wants to enroll to TDI Adv. Trimix course. I think he should first go through TDI Trimix (normoxic) course. The "Recreational Trimix" course standards, which he already passed, say he...

Thank you! For a lot of people, not native speakers, such clarifications are very important. Anyway, I do not find in the standards the limit of 100 meters max. The "9.1 Introduction" - "The TDI Advanced Trimix Course provides the training required to competely and safely utilize (...) to...

Hello, In the Adv. Trimix Course it is written that at least 2 dives should be deeper than 70 meters. I wonder if that "should" means "must". We have a very convinient place for training dives (quarry), but the maximum depth is only 64 meters. I wonder if that would be according to the...

Hello, Two potential students asked me if it is possible to go through the education ladder at TDI from Nitrox to Adv. Trimix while keeping END below 30m. (The limit comes from their existing DIR training and philosophy). I looked at the standards: Nitrox - no problem to do the course...

Where can I read more about TDI distinctive specialties (forms, requirements, procedure, etc.)? I cannot find anything in the TDI Instructor Manual 2009? Regards,

Hello, If I understand correctly the Specialty Procedure #3 for SDI Instructors allows an instructor not only to cross-over the existing specialty from another agency, but also to build his own specialty, where he has enough experience and surely there is a local demand for that. I wonder...

My example was, indeed, not correct. But I fully understand the answer. Thank you. El Bacio

Hello, Usually the technical courses consists of skills dives, often simulation deco dives and real deco dives. I wonder if the "skills dives" counts in the minimum number of dives mentioned in the standards. I.e. Adv. Nitrox course requires minimum 4 dives and 100 minutes bottom time...

My students are often afraid that if we go down to max. i.e. 37 meters during Adv. Nitrox course they will not be qualified to 40m as in the standards. As far as I understand, the real depth reached during the course has nothing or little to do with the qualifications. El Bacio

Hello, When filling the form after the course one of the question for the instructor is the maximum depth during the course. I wonder why this information is important for the agency? Regards, El Bacio

It is a pity that the offer is limited to North American divers, while the name of the agency has "International" word in it. It would be great if other regional HQs would follow the Main HQ in such promotional activities. El Bacio
