With better buoyancy control, easier access to valves, and greater repeatability, side-suspension diving offers safety and peace of mind. This is the best way to discover and enjoy the appealing benefits of this style of diving. You’ll learn all the skills and knowledge you need for the Side-Mount Diving course to dive safely and comfortably using a single- or double-tank side-mount configuration.
