    Snorkeling advice from the net!

    I also agree with AfterDark and Esprise Me. I always keep the snorkel in my mouth too.

    What is your favorite mask?

    Last Friday I received my Нимфа mask from Russia. I bought it from Маска подводная Нимфа купить с доставкой по России. The mask I received was very dirty and really looked like it would have been stored all the time since USSR. From reading the thread I thought it was still in production (like...

    For freediving, add "squeeze" (a lung collaps).

    Fins for surface snorkeling and free diving

    I have come to realize that my fins are not good for my usage. As I posted in another thread, I have a problem with my fins ending up splashing on the surface when I follow the surface. I got advised to do a modification to my fins, but I think there is a too big risk of permanently destroying...

    Who is the manufacturer of this mask?

    Thanks! Neither looks exactly like the one in my pictures but both might be "next generation" of the same mask.

    Who is the manufacturer of this mask?

    I had this mask like 15 years ago. One friend still got this mask and I received some pictures of it. Who made it? I miss mine, as I have not found any as comfortable and watertight masks as this one. Mask3 by engblom posted Jul 28, 2018 at 11:22 PM Mask2 by engblom posted Jul 28, 2018 at 11:22...

    I did remember wrong. It was not Hawaii, but Tahiti. I remembered a friend having a such mask and I received some pictures. Who made this mask: Mask3 by engblom posted Jul 28, 2018 at 11:22 PM Mask2 by engblom posted Jul 28, 2018 at 11:22 PM Mask1 by engblom posted Jul 28, 2018 at 11:22 PM

    Please help me find my first mask

    About 15 years ago I bought my first mask. I used it several years until the strap broke. Even after the strap broke I used it by having a very gentle under pressure to keep it on my face. When I moved to another town, I lost the mask. Even to this day I have not found any mask fitting me the...

    With fins vs without fins

    I am easily getting down 30 feet without fins. With fins I am kicking down, so I am just using the legs. Without fins I am "swimming" down, thus using both arms and legs. It would be very hard work to just kick down without fins.

    With fins vs without fins

    Most of the time I am just resting at the surface to gather strength for a dive, but sometimes I try to cover distance too. When I try to cover a distance, I find these fins annoying because they end up splashing at the surface rather than staying under the water. Because of this a lot of energy...

    With fins vs without fins

    I do not know if it is a technique issue or something wrong with my fins, but I find them very annoying when swimming at the surface. I am not able to keep them under water. As soon as I begin to kick, the feet moves up to the surface. It means I am using more energy than if I swim without fins...

    What is your favorite mask?

    I have no problem achieving 10-15m with any mask. I am more interested in seeing if it would add any extra time to explore the sea floor at those depths.

    With fins vs without fins

    When you go snorkeling/freediving, do you prefer to use fins, or do you prefer to go without fins. I am a bit torn on this case. Without a doubt, I am faster with fins and I reach at least the same far as without fins. Still I often go without fins because I am consuming less fast the oxygen...
