Build a Strong Foundation

Tec Basics is a multi-use course designed to introduce divers to technical diving equipment, skills, and techniques in a controlled setting. Whether you’re considering full tec training or simply want to refine your skills this course allows you to explore new gear configurations—such as twin tanks, stage cylinders, and advanced buoyancy systems—while practicing essential technical diving fundamentals.

An optional yet highly beneficial step before Tec 40, Tec Basics helps build confidence, improve precision, and ensure you’re fully prepared for the challenges of deeper technical diving.
