Technical Diving

What is Technical Diving

Technical diving (also referred to as tech diving or tec diving) is scuba diving that exceeds the normal scuba agency-specified limits of recreational diving for non-professional purposes. 

Technical diving may expose the diver to hazards beyond those normally associated with recreational diving and to greater risk of serious injury or death. 

The risk may be reduced by appropriate skills, knowledge and experience, and by using suitable equipment and procedures. 

The skills may be developed through appropriate specialised training and experience.

The equipment often involves breathing gases other than air or standard nitrox mixtures, (Trimix) and from multiple gas sources.
