TEC DEEP PROGRAM REQUIRED GEAR
Tec diving gear is different than a recreational setup. It is highly recommended to arrange a gear consultation or discuss equipment with your instructor. All gear must meet the requirements for the course.
Some equipment, such as regulators, exposure protection suits, and masks, are available for rent. Make sure to consult with your instructor or call the shop with questions.
Tanks and weights are included with the class fees. If you have your own, please discuss this with your instructor prior to the course. Tanks must meet the course requirements.
