PADI Tec 100 CCR
Course Overview & Training Objectives
The PADI Tec 100 CCR course is the ultimate technical rebreather certification, training divers to execute extreme dives down to 100 meters using hypoxic trimix diluents. The curriculum covers deep gas density management, isobaric counter-diffusion avoidance during gas switches, and extensive staged decompression execution. Divers develop total autonomy in managing multi-stage bailout scenarios under severe physiological stresses.
