Your cylinders will become more bouyant as the dive progresses (more with aluminium than steels), this bungee d-ring replaces a fixed or stainless steel d-ring. It slides along the 2 inch webbing, this allows you to accurately correct the trim of your sidemount mount cylinders throughout your dive. The cylinders shown in video are aluminium 80's.

These penetration scuba dives were made on the Eurobulker X shipwreck in sidemount configuration using the Golem Gear Armadillo side mount exploration harness A2 and the Steve Bogaerts designed razor harness.

Sidemount is by far the best configuration to use for developing every divers essential skill set. This video highlights what is covered with the side mount essentials training. There is a PADI and PADI TecRec option for divers wanting certification and a non-certification option for experienced divers.
Please note: Single Cylinder (is no longer offered as a stand alone course). It will be included as a workshop with an "optional training dive" with all of the above courses.
