The PADI Sidemount course is designed to familiarize you with a different style of diving.  Orignally developed for cave and cavern exploration, sidemount has expanded into the world of recreational and technical diving.  Tanks on your sides rather than your back reduce lower back fatigue and can help prolongue your dives.  Tanks can easily be donned in the water, eliminating the need to carry your full kit across sand or onto the boat. This course focuses on the  equipment needed, how to configure it and set it up for your personal physiology rather than the "one size fits all" mentality often found with back-mount diving.
