Excellent discussion of this issue. Thanks for the study presentation that was thorough and informative. I have a full face mask and heard of the risks- I am a doctor and had a minor panic attack recently when snorkeling near Cabo San Lucas due to my worry that CO2 might cause silent hypoxia. I must have removed my mask 5 times in a 25 min swim. So next time will use a traditional set. My face is petite so the full face mask generally fits me comfortably.

So it’s not „buy cheap, buy twice“, but „buy cheap, and never buy anything again“.
Very interesting. Thank you for this post. This confirms my suspicions. Is the study publicly available?
