Course Name Twin Set Diver

Overview

Ever wondered if twin set diving is for you?  This course is an introduction to the skills involved in diving on a twin set, including kit configuration and emergency procedures.  It will develop your practical knowledge of twin set diving and is a great way to increase your dive skills. 


General Content
There are several advantages to diving with a twin set including more available gas, extra supply for safety and stability underwater.  The Twin Set Diver course is designed to familiarise divers with the skills, knowledge, planning, configuration, hazards and benefits of diving with twin scuba cylinders.
 
During the course you will practice a variety of skills required for twin set diving including:
  • equipment set-up and configuration
  • air shut down drills
  • emergency procedures
  • basic decompression procedures
  • gas switching
You will also learn how to calculate your surface air consumption rate in order to estimate your gas supply requirements for a given depth and time.
 
Once qualified you will be able to plan, organise and conduct safe dives using a twinset.

Requirements You must be a PADI Advanced Open Water Diver (or have an equivalent qualifying certification) and be over 15 years old.

Knowledge Development
A theory session prior to the dives will tell you everything you need to know for the course.  This will cover the advantages and disadvantages of diving with twin sets, gas management, components of a twin set system and dealing with equipment failure.
 

Confined Water
You will complete a confined water training session in a twin set prior to the open water dives to practice rigging your twin set and  demonstrate buoyancy and emergency procedure skills.
