Advanced Nitrox & Trimix Training Tel: 077010 33022
I’d been looking for a new suit for a while and there were already a lot of Seaskin fans on the board. Having read the reviews I decided that if I was going to get a new suit it would be worth visiting the factory and talking to Richard about what I wanted.
Leeds is a […]
I recently changed the name of the Website to IanDennisTechnical as I think that it gives a better representation of the type of training that I offer to divers. The response so far has been extremely positive with more students finding me on the web and more courses running.
The plans for 2009 include
Running Normoxic Trimix […]
I bought some of the new 4th Element 5mm gloves last week and got the chance to try them at the weekend in Wraysbury on a course I was teaching.
Designed in 5mm stretch neoprene, they were certainly warm - the seams have been sealed to minimise water penetration and they are were very easy to […]
Designed for newcomers to Twinsets this has proven to be an exceptionally popular course which covers a considerable amount of skill development.
The course was originally intented as a workshop for both the Advanced Nitrox and Advanced Recreational Trimix courses to provide students coming on these courses with a grounding in such things as propulsion, Out […]
IANTD are at the forefront of diver training and we are constantly seeking to develop new training programmes to benefit divers. One of the new developments is the launch of the Advanced Recreational Trimix - TRIOX course designed for divers wishing to dive in the 30-45m range and take full advantage of the benefits of […]
One of the princpal questions in any diver’s mind when considering taking up technical diving is the choice of the right equipment. There are a vast variety of different configurations that can be seen at dive sites up and down the country, each may have its respective merits and divers should be able to make […]
There are several methods by which a valve drill can be completed, the important thing being that all valves can be reached and manipulated.
Method 1
Diver conducting the drill ensures that team is aware of his/her intention to conduct a valve drill
Check Back up reg with brief purge
Close Isolation valve fully whilst signalling team that […]
Uwatec recently replaced their long serving bottom timer with the new 330m model. It has some improvements on the old model with a clearer screen, an ascent rate in metres and a dive timer that runs to 99hours amd 59minutes. The previous model could not exceed 99minutes or dive beyond 99m.
I really like the simplicity […]
Diving throughout the year one of the common problems that I see is divers who are ubale to compete some skills due to a loss of dexterity as a result of cold water. Some divers choose to dive in 3mm gloves, some in 5mm, some in semi drygloves and some in drygloves. The extremities […]
Many training agencies are now moving away from deep air courses. GUE, IANTD, and TDI are all moving over to Trimix gases for diving beyond 30m. PADI & BSAC still respectively offer the Deep Diver and Extended range course, though ERD is being replaced in BSAC by the Sport Mixed Gas programme.
In my experience those […]
The risk of Decompression sickness (DCS) is something that we face on every dive and whilst we can all take steps to minimize these risks, it is highly important that we know how to react to a possible incident. DAN offer some excellent advice on how to deal with a casualty and safer diving at […]
Scubapro have recently relaunched the G250 with a rebadged V version to take over from the G250Hp. Many divers had stated that they preferred the metal barrel inside the original G250 rather than the plastic Hp version- hence the reason why Scubapro haven chosen to relaunch this model.
Having recently acquired the G250V I though […]
