Best mask for widest field of vision for petite face?

[bjoy82]

I'm 5'4" & 110 lbs. I know I wouldn't fit a youth mask, but certain adult masks would leak on me. I already have a mask that fits well enough (Oceanic Ion), but I'm disappointed in the field of vision compared to my husband's (Mares Esa).

What masks can you recommend?

Try the atomic frameless. It comes in two sizes. There is the standard and the slightly smaller "medium". I bet the medium would be a good bet.

Another vote for the Atomic Aquatics Frameless. The field of view is great and the smaller size might work well for you.

I recently changed to a Scubapro Clear Vu 4 as it fit the small/narrow features of my face the best. I had leak problems with Cressi Big Eye masks. This Scubapro model has a larger skirt that extends above my eyebrows and gives a tight seal all around. The teardrop shape of the lenses also offers an excellent view. This is a popular mask for Scubapro dealers, so finding one to try should be fairly easy.

Thanks for the tips

Try a X-Vision Mid-Skirt or Pure Vision and sometimes a TUSA M-31 VisioTri-EX(3 window) fits a smaller face as well.

Check out the Oceanic Mini Shadow.

If it's field of view you really need the HydoOptix has it hands down.

Hey, Thalassamania, does that mask actually work?

TUSA use to make the Mini Kilo which would fit a smaller face. My wife loves hers.

Yes it does,and quite well ... except (and this is a biggie for me) if you have normal vision you HAVE to wear contact to be able to focus on the virtual image of the dome lens (like a dome port on a camera).
