PADI LEVEL TWO

ADVANCED FREEDIVER

Ready to dive deeper and longer? 

The PADI Level Two Advanced Freediver course continues the development of freedivers who have mastered the fundamental knowledge and skills for static, dynamic and constant weight freediving. It is intended for freediving enthusiasts who wish to progress by furthering their knowledge and skills. During the course, students will continue developing their understanding of how the underwater world interacts with their body, how that affects them when freediving, refine their selection of freediving equipment, improve their equalization techniques for deeper freediving, improve their breath hold dive time and depth, and advance their skills as a buddy/safety.  Students will learn to further develop their static apnea over 2 minutes and 30 seconds, dynamic apnea to 50 meters/165 feet, and free immersion and constant weight freediving beyond 20 meters/60 feet.
