RAID NORMOXIC TRIMIX CCR DIVER IN GOZO & MALTA
The RAID Normoxic Trimix Rebreather qualifies you to use diluent with 18 percent oxygen and limits the maximum diving depth to 60 meters (200 feet).
The RAID Normoxic Trimix Rebreather Diver course involves using a gas mixture of oxygen, nitrogen, and helium. The use of these gas blends allows divers to explore deeper depths than what is possible with traditional air or nitrox mixes. The addition of helium to the gas mix reduces the narcotic effect of the gas. Normoxic Trimix is an advanced technical program that requires a diver to have a high level of experience. Used for technical diving, deep diving, and cave diving, where you may need to spend extended periods at great depths, and safety margins are critical.

Toby was a great instructor. I thoroughly enjoyed my diving with him in Gozo. The dives we did we amazing, I had a great experience!

Joseph Philbin
Tec Student
Before working with Toby, I'd never dived. Now I confidently dive 40m wreck on nitrox. I owe that entirely to his teaching, encouragement and (in no small measure) his patience. Both in and out of the water, his instruction and professionalism dispelled any anxieties I had and ensured I felt safe throughout.
