Advanced Nitrox,TDI or IANTD?

[ianr33]

I am going to be doing an Advanced Nitrox course in a few weeks time. I need to decide between TDI (Advanced Nitrox/Deco) or IANTD(advanced Nitrox). The only obvious difference I see between the two is that TDI allows 100% O2 for deco. Which should I choose? (Instructor would be the same either way so that is not a factor)

If instructor is the same, why not go with TDI so you can get the 100% card... What does IANTD allow as a max o2 %?

Max O2 with IANTD is 50%. I agree this is a big point in favor of TDI,just wondering if I am missing anything.

...with IANTD you are missing another 50% o2 ..

For some reason they don't do 100% until their "Technical Diver" class.

Anyone know why this is?

Would you like cheese with that burger? That will be an extra $1.10. Get it? I did Adv Nitrox and Deco last month thru TDI. They will usually give you a discount if you take both classes together. Something to think about.
