The PADI Advanced Freediver course consists of three main phases:

- Open water sessions to practice deeper free immersion and constant weight freedive's, along with additional buddy procedures and rescue techniques. Goal – constant weight freedive of 20 meters/66 feet (15 meters/50 feet for freedivers younger than 18)
Equipment
You need to have a freediving mask, snorkel, bi fins, wetsuit and weight belt. Your instructor may allow you to use mono fins. You’ll also need a surface signaling device and a freediving computer (or depth gauge and timer).
