Darren and Lyndon complete the PADI Tec Deep Instructor Course

After much practice and study, Darren and Lyndon finally crossed over to the Dark Side and came out as PADI Tec Deep Instructors.

As many of you will know, Lyndon and Darren have a keen interest in technical diving and deeper diving and are chomping at the bit to be able to pass on that knowledge and passion to some of you as future TecRec students. But in order to be able to teach the new structure of PADI TecRec they had to first be examined and scrutinised themselves on their dive skills.

The PADI Tec Deep Instructor course that they completed comprised of classroom presentations, Open Water dives including teaching skills and problem solving, demonstration quality skills including shut downs, stage drills and SMB use as well as decompression theory and dive planning exams. They were certainly put through their paces. They both deserve huge congratulations for the hard work that they had to put in to complete the course as well as their bravery in the cold.

So what now? Well now we are going to trial the TecRec programs, put course schedules together and then get you interested in pushing your limits further. The PADI TecRec Programs that Sub-Mission can currently teach are the PADI Tec 40, Tec 45 and Tec 50. These courses each take you one stage deeper and more involved in decompression considerations, diving with technical equipment and planning deeper dives so that you can explore more, spend longer deeper and essentially escape into a different type of diving.
