Toddy lives and works in Sardinia year-round. He is the owner of Protec Sardinia and creator of the TS sidemount system. This German native was a managing director, diving instructor, and guide in such places as the Red Sea, Caribbean, Pacific, Maldives, Mediterranean and the Atlantic Ocean. His passion for cave diving and exploration led him to deep sink holes in the jungles of Mexico’s Yucatan, where he worked and lived for several years, gaining extensive knowledge in technical diving. Other cave project sites include: South Australia (Nullarbor), Spain (Mallorca), France (Ardeche) and Italy (Sardinia). Toddy teaches in German, English and Italian. His TS system courses are offered as IANTD programs at the user and instructor level. He and his team welcome you to the island!
