The path
From your first tech dives to trimix and CCR
Technical diving is a progression, not a single course. Training builds in stages — each one adding skills, gas planning and equipment complexity before moving to the next.
01
Foundations
Trim, propulsion, gas management and doubles or sidemount configuration.
02
Decompression Procedures
Staged decompression, gas switches and managing ascent problems.
03
Advanced Trimix
Hypoxic trimix, multiple deco gases and greater depths.
04
CCR
Closed-circuit rebreather training, oxygen monitoring and bailout procedures.
Teaching approach
A knowledgeable, thinking diver is the key piece of equipment
Technical courses go beyond minimum requirements. Every academic topic — gas management, decompression theory, dealing with failures — is tied back to real diving scenarios, so the ‘why’ behind each rule actually sticks.
In-water sessions build from confined-water skills to simulated problem scenarios, so that by the time you’re diving the real profile, you’ve already managed the failure in shallow water first.
Where you’ll dive
Mallorca’s walls, caves and wrecks
Mallorca’s coastline offers real variety for technical profiles: deep rocky walls covered in gorgonian fans, cavern and cave systems, and wrecks within reach of a day boat.
Exact sites depend on the training objective, your certification, and conditions on the day.
FAQ
Frequently asked questions
What level do I need to start?
It depends on your current certification and experience. Technical diving is a progression — some divers start with foundational skills like trim, propulsion and gas management before any decompression training, others already have advanced open-water experience and are ready to move straight into staged decompression. Message Didac on WhatsApp with your certification level and dive count, and he'll suggest where to start.
Do you teach on open circuit or CCR?
Both. Most divers build a foundation on open circuit (doubles or sidemount) before moving to closed-circuit rebreather, but this depends on your goals and background — it's worth discussing directly.
Where do the dives take place?
Around Mallorca's coastline, with boat access from Porto Cristo. Exact sites — walls, caves or wrecks — are chosen on the day based on the training objective, your certification level and sea conditions.
How are boats and logistics organised?
Boat access and base logistics run through Skualo in Porto Cristo. Course content, dive planning and instruction are with Didac directly.
I'm already a technical diver — can I book a guided dive without a course?
Yes. If you're already certified for the profile you want to dive, Didac can guide technical dives around Mallorca. Message on WhatsApp with your certification and the kind of dive you're after.
Ready to talk through your next dive?
Tell Didac your certification level and what you’re working towards — course or guided dive.
