I just started diving and I haven't purchased any personal gear yet.
I have a moustache so I've pretty much gotten used to mask leakage. Water doesn't "flood" in, but I have to clear the mask pretty often. It's only really annoying when I'm trying to navigate with the compass because the water pools on the glass. Also, I occasionally get water down my nose or in my eyes when I look up.
I'm wondering how much should a mask leak, with or without a moustache? I'm not sure how much of the leakage is because of the poor fitting rental mask and how much is from my moustache.
Thanks.
