You’re a certified tech diver with several dozen decompression dives under your belt. Doubles, stages and deco bottles are second nature. Can you take a week off from work and get your full Cave Diver certification? The answer is a very definite…maybe. Read more on Harry’s blog.
If you say the words PADI Cave Diver to some folks, they recoil in horror, envisioning barely qualified Open Water Divers who complete an “easy, convenient” online study program, then knock off the required in-water training requirements in a day.

If your mother knew you were still backmounting, she’d worry about you. She’d worry about you causing long-term injury to your back. She’d worry about what you’d do in the event of a catastrophic manifold failure. She’d worry about you getting stuck in tight places.
Do your mom a favor. Discover sidemounting — the “other white meat” of cave diving configurations. If you can do it in backmount, you can do it in sidemount — and with a lot less risk of injury.
At Cave Diver Harry’s, we’re sidemounting experts, and experts in the revolutionary Dive Rite Nomad, the most versatile and configurable sidemount harness anywhere.
We can help show you how to get the Nomad set up in a way that works best for you. Our one-day Sidemount Orientation Program is a great place to start.
If there are any questions we can answer, please contact us.
