TRAINING
Dive safety is paramount, so when you buy a rebreather, it is mandatory to take the unit specific course.
The user course is quite intensive and is more comprehensive than most other unit courses. rEvo rebreathers have a quality assurance program to ensure that all students have received the necessary training, and when the course is completed the newly qualified diver is registered with rEvo Rebreathers as a user and is kept informed of any news by email. These standards were set by rEvo rebreathers, together with the training agency.
We provide certification from TDI (Technical Diving International) and IANTD (International Association of Nitrox and Technical Divers); depending on the organizations, the name of course will differ.
The mixed gas rEvo rebreather diver course will enable you to dive to 60m using trimix as diluent. The ultimate level will be the advanced mixed gas rEvo rebreather diver course; after successfully completing it, the diver will be able to dive to 100m using trimix diluent.
A demo unit is available for test dive and training.
Depending on your current certification and diving experience, you will have access to the below courses:
