We had a student who took 6 weeks to get this skill!!!!! It was the TIME factor. She pulled the darn thing away from her face in slo-mo & let gallons of water in (as if it only counts as a "flood" if the pool depth drops) & took forever exhaling till she was all out of breath, & menwhile, more water had rushed into the huge gap between her mask & face. OY!
As said before, you just need a very small break in the seal between the mask & face, & a very QUICK flooding (the mask does not have to be 100% full either) & a very QUICK sharp breath out to clear. The more time that elapses in the process, the more likely (IMHO) the student is to feel peculiar & bolt.
