Hypoxic Trimix - Start deep trimix diving today!

Get ready to push your technical diving skills to the limit. SSI’s Hypoxic Trimix program will use all the knowledge, skills, equipment, and experience you have gained from your previous advanced dive training to take you on a journey to the depths of the ocean.

You will learn how to safely conduct the ultimate decompression dive by using trimix diving techniques and procedures. Learn how to carry and properly use a minimum of three stage-cylinders for travel and decompression gas alongside your twinset diving configuration. Using hypoxic trimix breathing gases, you will plan and conduct dives to a maximum depth of 100 meters. You will earn the coveted SSI Hypoxic Trimix certification after completing this program.
