Agenzia di formazione
RAID International
A diver training agency with a recreational Cavern Diver course and a technical Cave 1 and Cave 2 sequence taught in twinset or sidemount.
RAID publishes a recreational Cavern Diver course and technical Cave 1 and Cave 2 courses on a single cave-courses page [1]. Cavern Diver keeps divers in the cavern zone, where daylight is the main light source, and RAID's page gives a 60 m penetration limit and a 10 m minimum starting visibility. Cave 1 focuses on fundamental cave safety and emergency response; Cave 2 adds stage-cylinder use and complex navigation [1].
When RAID introduced the cave programmes in 2017, Scubaverse reported that they were written by Jill Heinerth and Steve Lewis, required twinset or sidemount, and that Cave 1 allowed limited penetrations of up to 300 m with one tee [2]. RAID's current page does not restate the Cave 1 figures.
