This course examines the use of  EAN21 through 100 percent (oxygen) for optimal mixtures to depths not to exceed 150fsw/45msw.  The goal of this course is to train divers in the benefits, hazards and proper procedures for utilizing air, EAN21 through 100 percent oxygen for dives not requiring staged decompression. Decompression techniques may be combined with this course at the discretion of the instructor.

• Dive gear for the overhead environment must include, at a minimum a single gas nitrox computer, backup tables, a tank and a regulator properly cleaned and labeled for the EANX mixtures to be used.

This course requires 2 days,  four dives with no-decompression limits.  Curriculum consists of class sessions, demonstration of gas mixing procedures, dive planning using appropriate gas mixtures for the depth planned and dive execution.

Prerequisites:  Minimum age 15; Nitrox Certified and 25 logged dives.

The Advanced Nitrox  course may be combined with the Nitrox course or any level of overhead training.
