XR Cavern Diver Course
ProductExploration, Emotion, Experiences
The caverns are halfway between the dark tunnels of the caves and the bright light of day. The Extended Range Cavern Diving SSI program is the first step to training in caves and provides you with the necessary training to independently and safely plan and carry out limited penetrations into caves within the natural light area, at depths less than 40 meters , using cave diving equipment and procedures.
The SSI Extended Range Cavern Diving courses are perfect for those SSI Advanced divers or equivalent (PADI, ACUC, CMAS, etc.) who want to continue their training as a cave diver.
The requirements to access this course are:
– To have an ADV certification
– To have a Deep Diving and Nitrox certificacion
– Logbook with a minimum of 40 logged dives
– Be at least 18 years old
– To have minimum certification from XR Foundations (or equivalent from any recognized organization)
– To have Sidemount certification (in the case of taking the course with this configuration)
– You must also provide a medical certificate of less than 2 years
– Diving accident insurance (if you do not have one you can buy one directly in Xaloc, cost: €40 for annual insurance or a daily one at €6/day)
Our philosophy is to create students who are competent, safe and capable of diving independently alongside another diver with the same, or higher, certification.
In general, we achieve the teaching objectives in the minimum number of days set, but you must understand that achieving the minimum level that we require requires a lot of effort, both on the part of the student and your Instructor and that is why we charge this type of courses per teaching day.
We should also point out that we will certify you once your Instructor believes that you have met the minimum standards required by both SSI and Xaloc and that you would be able to dive safely without a guide. We will not certify you if we consider that you have not completed the program for which you are registering with excellence.
Therefore, the approximate number of days marked in our price list is the minimum assuming that you follow the course by doing everything perfectly the first time. If you do not progress perfectly, you will have to add more days of training until you achieve it.
The price is 200 €/day.… Read More
