DISCOVER A NEW TYPE OF DIVING
WITH THE SIDEMOUNT CONFIGURATION

SIDEMOUNT CONFIGURATION

Sidemount is nothing more than a different configuration, a new way of diving, you no longer dive with one or two tanks on your back but with two tanks under your arms, on both sides of your body.

Sidemount diving was initially developed for technical cave diving to tackle narrow passages where the traditional 2-tank-on-the-back configuration was too cumbersome.

Due to the ease, comfort and simplicity of the system, the Side Mount is becoming increasingly popular not only for cave or wreck diving but also for recreational open water diving.

The Sidemount diving specialty, in addition to great fun, offers the possibility of learning specific techniques for diving with this configuration in all recreational dives, also contributing to a notable increase in personal experience towards scuba diving.

Obviously the Side Mount System, for those who have specific certifications (Cave, Wreck, Technical Air Diving and Trimix), can be used as it allows the possibility of carrying phase and/or decompression tanks.
