Welcome to the Sidemount course – PADI/SDI

Sidemount diving exists since divers started exploring small spaces. Now this technique has conquered a wider range of use than just a tiny niche of technical cave diving. And with good reason: it gives you flexibility underwater, it’s very streamlined, it increases safety due to its 2 independent air sources, it’s easier on your back and on the contrary to double tanks, single tanks are available all around the world at any dive destination.

Choosing the equipment that is right for your needs and the correct set up of it are crucial factors to a comfortable, safe sidemount experience.
