Welcome to your Hypoxic Trimix Open Circuit Diver course. This course is the pinnacle of recreational open circuit decompression diving. There are no other official training courses that teach divers to dive deeper, with more decompression than this program.

There is actually very little new knowledge, and only a handful of new skills on this course. In many ways, this course adds only a little more to the gas planning, considerations for decompression stress, and physical demands of diving to 60m/200ft; however, it is an order of magnitude more complex. You are already familiar with planning normoxic (60m/200ft) dives but diving to even greater depths carries a great deal more risk and requires more planning and preparation, due to the stresses encountered when increasing depth and duration.

Saying that, you most certainly will extend your knowledge, skills, and personal capabilities beyond what you have already learned and mastered.

Twinset Decompression Diver

Welcome to the Twinset Decompression Diver Course! This course is designed for recreational divers who want to explore the fundamentals of decompression diving using a twinset configuration with one optimized decompression gas.

$80.00

Welcome to the Twinset Decompression Diver Course! This course is designed for recreational divers who want to explore the fundamentals of decompression diving using a twinset configuration with one optimized decompression gas.

You’ll learn essential skills, including dive planning, gas management, and safe decompression stop techniques. We’ll cover the benefits of a twinset setup for redundancy and extended bottom time, along with proper buoyancy control and ascent procedures. Our hands-on training and safety-focused approach will prepare you to dive confidently with limited decompression, expanding your capabilities and allowing you to explore more challenging underwater environments with a new level of self-sufficiency.

Deco 60/200 Diver

The Deco 60 course builds upon the knowledge and skills from Deco 50. Divers will learn to carry and utilize an additional stage/deco cylinder as well as normoxic trimix to depths of 60 m/200 ft. Advanced dive planning techniques, multiple stage handling and unlimited decompression times are the highlights of this course using normoxic trimix and oxygen mixtures up to 100 percent o2.

Deco 40/130 Diver

The Deco 40 course was designed with recreational divers in mind. It can be completed using a twinset, sidemount or modified single tank. Divers will learn how to properly plan and execute a non-accelerated decompression dive while carrying a bailout cylinder for safety as well as extended multi-level no stop dives with a gas switch to a higher oxygen cylinder up to 100 percent o2. Trimix may also be used with a qualified instructor.

Cave 2 Diver

This program has been developed by professional cave instructors who are also avid cave divers who love diving in cave. And while this program pays homage and gives respect to traditional cave training techniques and limits, it adds additional skills that RAID’s development team believes are required to execute "Full cave dives" safely, comfortably, and enjoyably.

RAID CAVE 2 DIVER

As a graduate from RAID's Cave1 program, you have already experienced the "RAID difference." If you're coming into this program from another training stream, get ready to be challenged.

This program has been developed by professional cave instructors who are also avid cave divers who love diving in cave. And while this program pays homage and gives respect to traditional cave training techniques and limits, it adds additional skills that RAID's development team believes are required to execute "Full cave dives" safely, comfortably, and enjoyably.

For example, you will build on the entanglement/line repair, and buddy rescue you learned in you RAID Cave1 program. You'll also learn how to protect yourself by diving with a stage bottle. While some believe the use of a stage bottle equals further penetration, at RAID we feel a stage also gives divers time to learn more about the cave environment and its character.


Most of all, your RAID Cave2 program is intended to build a greater understanding and appreciation of the fragile cave environment. By enrolling in this RAID Cave2 program, you are making a commitment to become an ambassador for the Karst. And for that, we thank you.
