Divers, If you have been thinking about a Rebreather…now is the time to start your training before the water gets hard in the Midwest! I know many of you have seen the increase in CCR divers on charter boats in the Great Lakes, and I will be recounting the outrageous amount of dives I have done this season in Superior/Michigan/Huron; it's not just about the savings in helium…it a whole lot more. Watch for my posting “Why I Tech Dive CCR” soon.

I have a Rebreather Level 1 (basic user level) course, with one student and openings for more to join. There will be the option to rent one of my CCR’s: Copis Meg, Inspiration, or rEvo . And yes, this is the Copis Meg that I have up for sale ;-) This is a Rebreather Ron event, so please contact me directly if interested at RebreatherRon@yahoo.com . For those who may not have met me already, I have been teaching rebreathers in Midwest for 10 years and specialize in training instructors and dive centers on CCR's. I have more hours in the water on multiple CCR's that I have personally owned and trained divers...than many others combined, but you wont find ego here - just experience and enthusiasm to train safe divers:)

The format for this course is
October 13th –classroom Maple Grove, MN 6-9 pm
October 14th – pool skills Maple Grove, MN 6-9 pm
October 23 – Square Lake, MN dives
October 24,25 – Wazee Lake, WI dives

Cost of the course is $1200 which includes the training fees, study guide book, certification process fees. Cost does not include gas, sorb, rental, or travel expenses.

Good Diving

what level of certification do you need to start CCR courses like this?

Requirements will vary by agency, and what level course you plan on taking.

Nitrox is recommended for the OW CCR course, but can be taken in conjunction with CCR through IANTD. For Mod 1 course, Advanced Nitrox or Recreational Trimix is recommended, but can be taken in conjunction.

An overview of their courses is here: IANTD Rebreather Courses

I'm providing this information as an overview only. I am not implying this is the agency the OP teaches through.
