The best rescue is one you will never have to make. Which is why the RAID Master Rescue course has a significant focus on risk assessment and advanced buoyancy control to minimise the chance of having to perform a rescue or be rescued.

Master Rescue Diver
The RAID Sidemount Diver is a modern program designed to include all the current Sidemount procedures suitable for cave, technical and recreational dives.
Sidemount, although invented for cave diving, has become a mainstream recreational and technical equipment configuration. It allows for longer dives and provides the diver with an increased level of redundancy due to carrying two independent cylinders.

Deco 40m/130ft
Getting the ‘thumbs up' sign is probably the worst signal any diver can receive since it signifies that the dive has ended. Extending time, and sometimes depth, in water is probably every divers desire.
The RAID DECO 40 program forms a bridge between recreational and technical diving. The problem with technical diving is that it has marketed and positioned itself as unattainable for the average diver. Divers are led to believe they must have superhuman strength and mental agility to participate in a technical diving program. Of course, here at RAID we believe this is simply not the case, but believing and acting are two totally different things.
DECO 50m/165ft
The course has modern, graphic rich manuals which explore and introduce the most modern information and techniques. A modern skill set places emphasis on managing skill mastery while neutrally buoyant. The skills themselves have been up as well with desire being that RAID divers will use a similar equipment configuration and perform the skills in a similar fashion.
The manuals also cater to the sidemount diver wanting to become Deco 50 diver.
DECO 60m/200ft
DECO 60m/200ft
The DECO 60 course is a natural progression for anyone certified at the DECO 50 level and allows divers to use two optimised decompression gases to a maximum of 60 metres/200 feet. Decompression obligations are limited only by the amount of gas carried by the diver.
Divers certify to use Normoxic Trimix with a minimum oxygen contend of 18%. Helium is based on a 30 metre/100 foot EAD/END. DECO 60 divers may use up to 100% oxygen for optimised decompression schedules.
The program may be completed wearing back mount twin set cylinders of for those qualified as sidemount divers, in sidemount configuration.
The program expands on the knowledge learned and the skills mastered in the DECO 50 program. The program contains the very latest techniques, protocols and technical information. The manuals use the latest graphics and are both exciting and challenging.
