Become a NITROX DIVER with Adreno!Becoming a Nitrox diver opens up a world of opportunities for extending your bottom times, increasing safety margins, and minimizing surface intervals during your dive adventures. Here's what you can expect from the SSI Enriched Air Nitrox specialty program:Increased Bottom Times: By learning to dive with enriched air mixtures containing higher percentages of oxygen (up to 40%), you can extend your bottom times compared to traditional air diving. This allows you to explore underwater environments for longer periods, maximizing your dive experiences.Enhanced Safety Margins: Enriched Air Nitrox diving offers increased safety margins by reducing the risk of decompression sickness, particularly on repetitive dives or dives with shorter surface intervals. By optimizing gas mixtures, you can dive more safely and confidently, even when pushing the limits of recreational diving depths.Shortened Surface Intervals: With reduced nitrogen absorption during dives with enriched air Nitrox, you'll experience shorter surface intervals between dives. This means you can spend less time waiting on the surface and more time exploring the underwater world, making the most of your diving adventures.Skills and Knowledge Enhancement: The Enriched Air Nitrox specialty program not only teaches you how to safely plan and execute dives with Nitrox but also enhances your overall diving skills and knowledge. You'll learn about the principles of gas blending, oxygen exposure limits, and the benefits and considerations of diving with enriched air mixtures.Certification Options: Upon completion of the program, you'll earn an SSI Enriched Air Nitrox 32% or 40% certification, depending on the specific blend of Nitrox you trained with. This certification demonstrates your proficiency in diving with enriched air and allows you to enjoy the benefits of Nitrox diving at dive destinations worldwide.By participating in the SSI Enriched Air Nitrox specialty program, you'll unlock the advantages of diving with enriched air mixtures and enhance your diving capabilities.
