Technical diving, scuba diving’s “extreme” sport. The PADI Tec 45 course picks up where PADI Tec 40 left off and will take your training as a Tec diver further and deeper. It is the second sub course in the full PADI Tec Diver course. Throughout the course you will learn the skills, equipment and planning need to dive to a maximum of 45 metres/145 feet. As well as the knowledge to plan and execute both single and repetitive decompression dives using a single stage cylinder of EANx to accelerate decompression stops. You will also look at how to prepare for and respond to foreseeable technical diving emergencies and master the basic skills and procedures you’ll need as you move into deeper technical diving. Equipment required: You’ll use your recreational scuba equipment, with some minor additions to enhance your ability to deal with Tec diving conditions.  Prerequisites for the Tec 45 course, you must be: - A PADI Advanced Open Water Diver (or hold a qualifying certification from another organization)
- A PADI Rescue Diver (or hold a qualifying certification from another organization)
