NE1 want a Mares Pure Vision Mask?

[pakman]

out of curiousity, where did it leak on your previous pure visions...?

top left corner, but I soon learned that the mask will not really seal properly because of protruding hair on the left side of my head which strangely refuses to be swept back. I had my hair trimmed/cut...

Wear your mask in front of mirror and look at your hair line Mike. You might need to go bald to stop the leak...

Not the same problem I'm having. My hair is pretty short.

The bubbles are coming not from the skirt to face seal but from what appears to be just behind the upperleft frame (lens). Unless its a bad seal on the lower face and the bubbles are trickling up...

I should say the replacement I got was a bit better than the 1st one I picked up. Anyways, if anyone wants to play around with it or even try seeing if you can get repalcement from Scubaworld Manila, I'll bring it down end of the month...

now i have to convince myself i need 2 masks! hahahaha

It only takes one time having a broken mask to convince you that you need a backup.

that's true... but you've already been in the philippines long enough that "backup" is not part of the culture...

feels like a waste kasi to have 2 masks and only use 1... (insert typical SB flaming tirade from 50,000 members on WHY i will die if i don't bring a backup mask underwater...)

Ish, actually try using a bandana wrapped around your head. Seriously, my friend swears by it. Any old bandana would do or you can get the scuba one's that they sell in the shops.
