About the event

AIDA Depth Competition Safety Freediver Course
Coming to MALTA by AIDA Instructor Trainer and AIDA Education Committees member, David Watson, visiting from Dahab (the home of freediving), the AIDA Depth Competition Safety Freediver Course is the gateway to be an official safety freediver for AIDA depth competitions (up to 80m), and is the first step to the Advanced course for 80+m depth competitions.

It is designed to test your abilities to the maximum and will cover advanced and very latest rescue techniques as well as thoroughly covering teamwork required to conduct team rescues and be part of an AIDA depth competition safety team.

Some of the exercises covered on the course are as follows:

The course is over two days; SUNDAYS: 21st & 28th September at Cirkewwa (weather permitting) and will involve 3 open water sessions, theory (online & in person) and final theory exam.
Four spaces available: €250 per person
