TDI Extended Range Diver Course
Push Beyond Limits — Explore Deeper with Extended Range
The Gateway to True Deep Diving
The TDI Extended Range Diver course is your invitation to explore the ocean beyond recreational limits — a world of silent wrecks, untouched reefs, and true adventure.
Designed for serious divers who want to go deep using open circuit equipment, this course builds the skills, discipline, and confidence to plan and execute dives to 55 metres using air or nitrox as bottom gas and accelerated decompression.
Our course is seven dives. Unlike other agencies ‘extended range’ courses, you’ll be doing seven dives : two dives in the 30m range and then five dives between 45~55m.
Adventure Meets Simplicity
Unlike rebreathers, extended range open-circuit diving keeps things simple. No electronics, no complex maintenance, and no high costs. It’s about mastery of fundamentals — gas management, redundancy, and solid technique — so you can focus on what really matters: exploration.
The Training Environment
Frontier Tech Divers offers the perfect classroom for deep diving — with immediate access to deep walls and wrecks right in front of the dive center, off Panglao. Our instructors are among the most experienced TDI professionals in the Philippines

Getting Wet - All About Your Extended Range Course Dives
At Frontier Scuba we prefer to teach the course as a seven dive course. We start with a review of your previous tech skills before progressing to new skills. You will be making all dives with either twin tanks, or with sidemount tanks, using two deco tanks of EAN50 and 100% O2.
At this level of training it is 40% physical and 60% mental. Dives and skills that challenge you will help you to develop and improve your skills. By the end of the course we will work up to a max. of 55m on air.
The ER course builds explorers.
From here you have the skills to dive deep reefs or wreck.
The Extended Range course can be combined with TDI Advanced Nitrox & Decompression Procedures, TDI Trimix Diver or with the TDI Advanced Trimix course.
