About SSI Deep Diver Specialty.
Is deep diving dangerous?
Like all diving, it's safe when planned and conducted properly. The Deep specialty exists precisely to teach you the planning discipline that keeps it safe.
Will I get narcosis?
You may notice subtle effects at 35-40 m — a mild euphoria or slowed thinking. The course teaches you to recognise it and manage it. It disappears as you ascend.
