UWC
Technical Diving
Are you ready to explore further and/or deeper? Ready to visit the wrecks and pristine reefs that few have the chance to see with their own eyes? Ready to push yourself and bring your underwater skills to a whole new level? If you answered yes to any of those questions, you are in the right place!
UWC’s Technical Diving program can be taken on either sidemount or backmount configurations. If you wish to take the class in the sidemount configuration you will need be certified in sidemount first.
In either configuration, the first step is to take the XR Foundations class, which teaches the advanced buoyancy control, trim and fining techniques needed to begin technical diver training.
