Darren, one of our dive staff, has organised another trip over to Rugby to play with the Chamber in the evening of Thursday 30th April.

The wonderful guys at Midlands Diving Chamber are giving us the chance to do a 50 metre Dry Dive, all for only £40. The event goes as follows:

Everything kicks off at 6:30pm at MDC and starts with a power point presentation with a brief on what they do at the chamber and the dive profile you will complete. They will then load us into the chamber for the dive. They have a neuro indicator for us to complete at depth and they also put a ball/balloons, 6mm neoprene and other toys into the chamber so we can see the effects of the gas laws taking place. We can also take our dive computers and underwater cameras with housings in with us. The 50m dive lasts 48 minutes with 28 minutes of decompression. 27 of these minutes will be spent on 100% 02 for safety so we will leave the chamber with less nitrogen in us than before we started the dive. There will then be a debrief of the dive and a look around the chamber panel and an explanation on how they operate the chamber. Total time with MDC is approximately 2½ hours depending on how many questions we have. 

We are also giving you a chance to complete the DIVE Northampton SSI Chamber Workshop at the same time which simply adds a further £10 to the cost. For this, you will receive a recognition certification on your SSI App.

Key Facts:
  • Maximum of 11 spaces
  • Any diver can complete the dry dive no minimum qualification.
  • 18:30 kick off and parking is at the unit in front of the building
  • Minimum age 17 years old
  • You will be changed in to theatre scrubs before you enter the chamber
  • Cameras/video and computers are welcome
  • £40 per participant or £50 if you want the Workshop certification.
  • Please remember that bookings will be cancelled in the event of emergency patients needing treatment, and this may happen at short notice.
  • You will need to bring along a certification card or MySSI App / logbook with you on the night and if you need need a diving medical to dive, you will also need to bring this along so it can be seen by chamber staff beforehand.

To book, simply let me know ASAP and drop your Payment in to the shop or if you’re really stuck, pay by card over the phone. Because we only have limited spaces, your place will not be held until your payment is received.

Here’s to a fun evening.
