BSAC Advanced Mixed Gas Diver (80m)
The Advanced Mixed Gas Diver course is a great way to extend already considerable open-circuit mixed gas diving skills.
The course considers the detailed theory and practice of the decompression strategies needed to dive safely to 80 metres.
I really enjoyed this course and using the decompression theory and practice to extend my range to 80m. I now have the confidence to use all the gas mixes at my disposal to plan a significantly deep dive.
Advanced Mixed Gas Diver (80m) course is the ultimate step in BSAC open-circuit mixed-gas training. It introduces a Sport Mixed Gas Diver (50m) or Explorer Mixed Gas Diver (60m) to diving with an extended choice of trimix gases, and qualifies them to dive such mixes to depths of up to 80m, using a twin-set and a minimum of two stage cylinders.
To enrol on the Advanced Mixed Gas Diver (80m) course you must be at least 18 years old and be a Sports Diver with 35m depth certification. You also need to have completed a Sport Mixed Gas Diver (50m) course, an Extended Range Diver course (a BSAC legacy qualification) or have equivalent certification from another recognised training agency. You should be very proficient at deeper diving, with say 100 or more logged dives.
If you are already an Explorer Mixed Gas Diver(60m) some of the course elements are discretionary.
As an Advanced Mixed Gas Diver (80m), having consolidated your open-circuit deep diving skills, you will be a valuable member of any expedition team. You may decide to further your diving in other ways.
