PADI Tec 60 CCR

Course Overview & Training Objectives

The PADI Tec 60 CCR course advances rebreather divers into technical trimix diving with unconstrained decompression up to 60 meters. Training focuses on utilizing normoxic trimix diluent to manage work of breathing and nitrogen narcosis, alongside dual-stage open-circuit bailout planning. Divers master complex contingency strategies for electronics failures, manual oxygen metering, and emergency deco stop protocols.
