Sidemount diving
Ever wondered what Sidemount Diving is all about? Let Action Scuba be your guide!
Sidemount diving is a growing trend in scuba diving, and applies to both recreational and technical diving. Put simply, it’s just a different way of configuring and carrying your tanks and breathing gases.
Sidemount diving allows you to carry 2 (or more) tanks, without placing additional strain on your back, as with doubles.
The benefits of sidemount diving:
-
Extended gas supply compared to single tank diving
-
Easy to carry on land
-
Reduced back strain and pressure
-
You can dive sidemount almost anywhere in the world – just bring your sidemount BCD and regs and use standard rental tanks.
-
Easy to manage and trouble shoot since you can see your equipment and first stages.
-
A new way to streamline and improve buoyancy with a tank on each side
-
Great for tight spaces like caves as you can move your tanks around as needed.
