I learned by experience the hard way that you don't need a snorkeling snorkel for diving, meaning my regular dry snorkel that doesn't fold up. In my early days, after my mask was leaking and fogging up so much, it was suggested to me by someone more experienced that having a rigid snorkel attached to your mask creates a bit of a drag or resistance on your mask thereby breaking the seal around your face. Problem solved.
No it doesn't. Makes no difference to the seal for a mask and I dive into plenty of strong currents. Fogging up certainly has nothing to do with having a snorkel attached.
Hey it's his story
OK Wearing a snorkel makes your mask fog up. OK lol
No! Constantly clearing your mask because a snorkel is breaking your skirt seal makes your mask fog up.
Shhhhhhhhh!
