Formazione in grotta, passo dopo passo
12 organizzazioni38 corsi ufficiali
Come è strutturata la formazione per caverna e grotta, cosa consente ogni livello e le pagine ufficiali dei corsi delle organizzazioni che li insegnano.
Leggere non equivale a formarsi. Niente qui sostituisce l'istruzione da parte di un istruttore di grotta qualificato. Nomi di corsi simili non sono automaticamente equivalenti: ogni organizzazione stabilisce i propri prerequisiti e limiti, e un sito può accettare alcune certificazioni e non altre.
4 livelli
Le fasi abituali
1. Caverna
All'interno della zona di luce diurna vicino a un accesso, con limiti rigorosi su distanza e profondità.
2. Intro cave
Primi passi oltre la luce diurna su un filo guida continuo, con limiti rigidi.
3. Full cave
Navigazione complessa (jump, gap, circuiti) e immersioni più lunghe e profonde.
4. Cave avanzata
Competenze di livello esplorativo come rilevamento, penetrazioni lunghe e gas staged.
I corsi di sidemount, rebreather, scooter e rilievo affiancano questi livelli; nomi, ordine e limiti variano a seconda dell'organizzazione.
