Sidemount Diver
IDR 4,995,000
The Sidemount Diver Course teaches you how to configure and use one or two cylinders mounted at your sides instead of on your back.
Maximize your streamline in the water, reduce lower back strain and take advantage of the increased gas supply for longer dives.
Sidemount diving is configuring the diver’s cylinders under the diver’s arms, instead of on the back.
This configuration was designed for cave diving and single cylinders because they are easier to haul in situations when divers must carry dive gear through rough terrain to the water’s edge.
Sidemount diving can be used in a variety of different environments and offers excellent advantages for divers with limited mobility who prefer sidemount over wearing back mounted cylinders.
Benefits
-
Adjustability – Enhance your streamlining and body position while better controlling environmental contact.
-
Access – Easy access to the regulator first stage(s) and tank valve(s) which are positioned in front of you instead of behind you.
-
Back Relief – By mounting cylinder(s) on their sides.
-
Maximize Time – A comfortable option to increase air supply and maximise bottom time; especially when using enriched air.
-
Redundant Gas Supply & Delivery System – Handle a low or out-of-gas problem by switching to the second cylinder; handle a regulator failure by switching to the second regulator.
