 Dry dive at the London Diving Chamber Date TBC

chamber

Dry diving is exactly as it sounds, a Hyperbaric chamber is the perfect environment to test a diver's ability at depth, but in the safe, water-free environment that it offers. DCI often results from a diver's inability to handle nitrogen narcosis, Currently the PADI depths of the Advanced Open Water course are, in our opinion, not deep enough to really experience narcosis, So if a diver, for the first time, does experience that surreal feeling they can panic and risk DCI. A dry dive can prepare a diver mentally for what can happen underwater, A dry dive is also a great opportunity for technical divers to test their computers or Dive Cameras.

On the day the divers will come as a group to LDC, They will then:

  • Fill in a self-declaration medical form. Any ticked YES must be covered by a dive doctors clearance form. (These can be done at LDC with enough notice).
  • PLEASE NOTE: Divers must be over 18 years of age for insurance reasons.
  • Sign the usual waiver form.
  • They will then enter the chamber accompanied by a LDC tender.
  • The maximum depth of a dry dive is 50 metres.
  • Divers will breathe the surrounding air which will slowly pressurise to the agreed depth.
  • Clothing will be provided by London Diving Chamber.
  • After staying at the maximum depth for the agreed time, divers will then be surfaced slowly, deco stopping as necessary
  • On coming out of the chamber LDC will sign and stamp log books.

Please remember that like a wet dive, a dry dive does carry a risk of DCI, a minimal one as the environment is so controlled. Please report any abnormal symptoms immediately.

Extras:

Transport (if required)

Chamber Specialty course (if required)
