C'mon, THIS THREAD IS NOT ABOUT SNORKEL "BUZZ"...............................it's about snorkel warble.
I found my snorkel warbling
Because the snorkel relies on being clipped onto the mask and it's difficult to clip it in cold water with heavy gloves if the snorkels not clipped they just flop over rendering them useless and when your in rough water and low on air it's dangerous
I may look into a folding snorkel as well as jamming it under my strap the snorkel I currently have is a corrugated j snorkel that when it's not in use it falls away from your mouth I like that feature I keep my strap loose enough where jamming it under the strap is an option I will try it on my next dive as all my dives from now till spring are gonna be shore dives I just dove lock 21 for like the 30th time and it never ceases to amaze me god I love all the different structures out here
I find that when swimming on the surface I like to have my reg in my mouth. When all is calm i breath around it. When a wave comes through I clamp down and draw through the reg. Reduces the air consumption and makes my life more pleasant. I should note I have a secure and a couple missing teeth so my reg does not come out easily even if I am holding it loosely in the mouth.
I found my snorkel warbling and tugging in the current so I cut a cpl inches off the top wow what a difference the only thing is you have to keep your self very buoyant but my question remains what is your solution to snorkel warble
Fwiw my snorkel is a requirement and leaving it onshore is not an option also putting it in my pocket I'd also not an option
I can't imagine that a dive club would actually require you to wear a snorkel....... .
