Sidemount equipment is an innovative gear arrangement which may be used for all types of diving and is unlike any other gear arrangement that a diver may be accustomed to using. Sidemount equipment configuration facilitates ‘spot on’ buoyancy within minutes and results in a more streamline profile than a conventional gear configuration Sidemount scuba diving is a safe alternative option for gas management allowing the diver to always see their valves and first stages Sidemount scuba diving is a different approach to gear configuration which allows the diver to carry both of their tanks on all dives providing greater safety due to the volume of gas. Sidemount can be used for all recreational, reef, wreck, and wall dives. Interested in technical diving? No need to purchase another set of equipment as your sidemount gear will carry you through these advanced levels of training.
