You missed one item that I'm really hard pressed to find on your gear list. You had an extendable bracket that you put your tablet into, then hooked that up to the tripod. Where can I get that extendable bracket for the tablet as I have a 10 inch tablet?
if you don't want to share all you have to do is use Vaseline on your beard! in times of war or training that's what we use for our gas masks in the U.S. Military!
The intent of the Tribord (as many others have noted here) is to make it easier for kids and those who feel claustrophobic with a conventional mask/snorkel. As a lifelong scuba diver, it is pretty obvious this isn't a mask you'd want to go deep enough to equalize with -- it just won't work. And no, not everyone wants to dive below a couple of meters. Many are happy to just enjoy the view from the surface. My wife loves to snorkel but has always had problems with traditional mask/snorkel setups. We got one for her and it has worked brilliantly for a year now -- fog free, easy to breathe -- all the things the company legitimately claims. We live in Thailand so go snorkeling fairly regularly. From our perspective as long-time users -- two thumbs up.
Agree Rick, this is meant for kids and surface dwellers more than anyone else. Interestingly their photo of demonstrated usage on their website shows under the surface use: www.wildhornoutfitters.com/products/seaview-180-full-face-easybreath-snorkel-masks that may be where confusion begins?
Agreed -- the only thing I would point out is that the photo you show isn't Tribord's, but rather Wildhorn's. The photo at the Tribord official site shows people (and children) all on the surface. www.tribord.co.uk/snorkelling-masks-and-snorkels-idfam1671 I think the rule of common sense should apply here, and sadly many don't apply that rule often enough :-)
You've had so much success since this video and that makes me so happy. This is my first of your videos that I've watched and I thought you were some big UA-camr because of your stunning quality and then you say that all you have is 410 subs. It's humbling and so so refreshing to see someone who doesn't do it for the number of subs rather than the quality of the video
To be fair, I said it's not really a huge problem and the mask is advertised as anti-fog. After one use I would suggest the fogging isn't the issue with this mask.
I looked at this video 3 years ago when you released it for the first time, fascinating look back through it again, your editing in this video was very good, very to the point and you presented so very well, I am not surprised in the slightest this video done so well for you, you put a lot of effort into this video and it paid off, well done, mrix
Around the nose area they could use a flexible plastic or something so that you can equalize while keeping it 360, With the anti fog thing Id say that they shouldnt put it on the box because every mask is gonna fog up eventually unless your talented. give a like if you agree
I totally agree with this man. They could easily have made the plastic malleable around the nose piece. Weird they didn't!! I liked because of this comment :)
I like you. You're to the point, you don't try too hard to be entertaining or funny, and you reply to comments probably more than you need to. Subscribing 👍🏽
Ahhhh, thanks so much Brett!! I love reading a comment like this! I do spend a long time replying to comments, but I feel that is important as this is a community I am trying to build and it only happens when people start connecting :) Thanks so much for the support man!
I'm going snorkeling in Costa Rica soon!!! I'm new to snorkeling, so what were you talking about with the nose holding, and exchanging it? Thanks. loved the footage and the review!
For those of you considering getting a full face mask, there have been some concerns in parts of the world as to their safety e.g. carbon dioxide inhalation. It appears that a number of countries are looking at this issue, Australia amongst others.
Thanks David :) It's good for everyone to be informed. I did cover one particular safety concern I have on these masks in this video: ua-cam.com/video/2UHvFJ7zXnk/v-deo.html
This is a great mask for casually floating along the surface with children and girlfriends that are a little claustrophobic , freaked out by the water anyway.(speaking from experience here.) I've found that the air trapped inside of the mask makes you (or at least your head) much more buoyant and thus; difficult to submerge beyond a few feet anyway. Actually , another plus for kids. Worth the reasonable price point depending on the application. Not for serious snorkeling but fun anyways.
Yazoo, your second point is a very good one, one that I neglected to mention - that extra bit of buoyancy actually helps keep people (like me) afloat also! For the life of me I've never, ever been able to float on water unless I'm treading water, with this thing on I can literally lay on my stomach on the surface like a normal person would on their back! Great!!!
Alex Bainbridge . He noted there is no way to pinch your nose, as you would before gentley trying to blow air through your nose to equalise your ears (called the valsalva manouver).
I don’t know if anyone else noticed this but when ever you cut the video a high piched beep sound would blast my ears and I am going deaf, but it’s worth it I like this guys videos, keep up the good work. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
I am looking to buy a snorkeling mask for my father who is 72 but snorkels in Thailand regularly. I note your review of the seaview 180 but would like a recommendation if you have one?
Oh, sorry. Residual volume is the amount of air that is not exchanged during breathing. It is also called "dead space". en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dead_space_(physiology) Imagine breathing through a vacuum hose, and that you do not exhale through your nose but have to do all breathing through your mouth. If the hose is long enough, thus holding big enough volume, you are in effect breathing the same air over and over again. No new air gets mixed in. In effect you could just as well be breathing into a plastic bag. Now that would be an extreme condition. But all volume that you add to your air column increases the dead space/residual volume, and makes the gas exchange during breathing less effective. The internal volume of a snorkel should not exceed... I think it is about 200 ml for an adult and less for a child, but this mask seems to hold way more volume than that.
Hmmm, I don't think this mask actually works like that - you cannot go underwater and continue to breath the air within the mask and snorkel (it's just not working like that). So I think this doesn't really affect it's usability (or safety), but a good point to bring up Per!
GivesAMinute I used to record my tv and just crop out my room but now I have a recording software for my computer so pretty soon I’m going to record with apowersoft screen recorder which records my mac’s screen
This guy is right: I bought 3 different brands at different prices but they all appeared to be essentially the identical design, materials, etc. They all leaked a little bit especially when submerging the snorkel. They all fogged considerably even when I used copious amounts of saliva and no-fog product. I was somewhere where the snorkeling was heavenly. Thank god I brought a couple good standard dive masks which worked flawlessly in "serious" conditions. These full face masks are fun but the novelty wears off quickly. I would like to try a Tribord or one of the more expensive ones to see if they are any better...
Thanks Gareth :) It's nice to have someone who has tried a bunch of them contribute their thoughts! I have heard from a reputable source there is an update coming to the Seaview 180 that will address a bunch of concerns. I was also in talks with Tribord to test their product but the conversation ended on their behalf :(
GivesAMinute true btw you can also buy stuff for the fogging and if you want I can send you some my dad would go diving for logs in Wisconsin so he use some of this stuff so he bought me some so when I go snorkeling on a vacation my mask doesn't fog up
GivesAMinute i heard from my friend that there are something that you should put into your nose and some other company's in your ears to help you equalize while diving .
For real? I don't think so, which one here: www.google.com.au/search?q=malcolm+turnbull&client=safari&rls=en&tbm=isch&source=lnms&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwj_z6bwx9rTAhWFnZQKHTzfBFcQ_AUICygC&biw=1661&bih=903&dpr=2
Try "tribord easybreath" also available in Australia. I use this model since End of 2013. Bought in France from the first company trading that new kind of 180 degrees Mask. No fog. Never. No Spit. I swam hundreds of hours with it. Snorkeling in Mauritius, in Maldive, in Martinique ..and in my pool for cleaning job. No poisoning or whatever you can read in the comment ( 2 separate vents with valves for it and out flow and that also why you have no fog). Perfect for cruising on the surface and for the whole family. Really great. Just make sure you order the right size.
Yeah I was in discussions with Tribord to make a review of their Easybreath mask but the conversation stopped on their behalf. Glad you enjoy yours K2020 :)
One of the reasons I like living in the US, is most products I order are being shipped from the US (After their initial delivery from china or wherever, to suppliers), so delivery times are often within 5 days max.
Yeah and you guys can also expedite shipping to make it even quicker! Strangely enough whenever I order through Amazon to ship to Australia I am amazed at how cheap the actual shipping cost is? I guess they deal with such large volumes they have a discount setup...
I really enjoyed your video! Great content, great entertainment and a great person for what it seems like! You just earned yourself another subscriber😄
I have the original Decathlon Easybreathe and it doesn't fog up at all. But, I still can't dive very far down and on surface snorkeling often a wave will cause the dry snorkel to lock closed and then momentarily you can't breathe!
Beance Tubaire Voluntaire (BTV) or Voluntary Tubal Opening is the preferred method of equalization once mastered. It feels very much like a yawn and a difference in tonal quality of sounds will be noticed when successful. The muscles of the upper throat are used to pull open the Eustachian tube.
For the part where you said that the snorkel mask is not used for depth. All you can do to not pressure your face is to hold your breath until you go your desired point below the surface and while down there exhale from your nose or mouth for as long as possible until you can get back up into the surface.
Kaya, that doesn't change the pressure of the water building up the deeper you go, but it does sound like a good way to control/slow down your heart rate.
As a scubadiver-- per the fogging, can you clear it when underwater? Also, on the equalizing, they need to design a rubber nose piece with some kind of access through the front of the mask. Not sure how they'd engineer this.
Thans Jnau, I have seen this happen underwater and it blows me away whenever someone does it! I don't think I am skilled enough to do it tho :( Agree with you about the rubber nose piece! Good idea!
The original Easybreath was designed and manufactured by Tripord in France in 2013 and I have the Original Tribord Mask and it does not Fog up and all my kids use it for surface snorkelling which was its intended purpose by the french design team
I never had a snorkel, but if the little tube thing is under the water can you breathe? Because I have no idea how it works... Or can you only breath when the tube is out in the air
Thanks so much Gauge :) I'm in Fiji right now and working on a follow-up video with the suggestions everyone has made here for the Seaview 180, then I also have another product to test while here...
Good test drive & unboxing but you didn't say how much or if it leaked. I don't have a beard but I have an awesome Fumanchu down to the Adams apple so that's why I'd like to know how much it leaks. Also, about your home brew. You said it was an English style but I've never heard of beer for a couple of months. Could you also post a link to that (the home brew) also?
Thanks mate :) Yeah it leaked a little - you can see it running down the inside of the mask as I use it. How much exactly I am not 100% sure, but my face was not dry after use. That English stye home brew was this one mate: www.aussiebrewmakers.com.au/Coopers-English-Bitter.html?ref_cat_id=home-brew-Coopers-International If you do make one yourself let me know how it tastes!
I have just been watching a bunch of vids on these new fangled snorkel masks, and I am wondering if they could be multi purpose, like outfitted creatively as emergency respirators in bad air type circumstances? I was always no good as a kid with snorkeling, and never have snorkeled as an adult, but I would do so, with some of these new snorkel masks. They are really pretty damn cool!
ok so let's say you can equalize your ears with out holding your nose, what happens as the water pressure increases and you need to equalize your mask could you do it or would it just can't?
how about nose plugs. put them on so when you need to pressurize, the nose plugs would be like pinching your nose and breath out gently. do you think that would work?
No i heard it when you was inside unpacking and explaining about the snorkel, then you went drive outside and when you hit the beach for 1 sec at 4:02 you could hear again the high pitch sound. after that it was all good audio
You missed one item that I'm really hard pressed to find on your gear list. You had an extendable bracket that you put your tablet into, then hooked that up to the tripod. Where can I get that extendable bracket for the tablet as I have a 10 inch tablet?
Ahh my apologies Bruce. That would be the JOBY GripTight Pro Tablet: amzn.to/2ukGgf9

On the contrary Nick, Anthony helps people watch my content so I applaud him!

Thanks Kid :) I really appreciate the nice vibes man! Made my day!
Yep. 4 years later he has 23.6k subscribers
Did you run toothpaste and soap in the mask ?? That is how you make sure it doesn't fog up
There's no need to with this one according to it's specs.
baby shampoo works.
But I have't had any problem with fogging up with this mask.
you fucking said in the video that fogging IS a problem! dislike for sure.
To be fair, I said it's not really a huge problem and the mask is advertised as anti-fog. After one use I would suggest the fogging isn't the issue with this mask.
That flaw is also a deal breaker for me. Thanks for your review 😀👍

Greatest Ever you can now get them so you can squeeze your nose
Or you could just get a separate mask and snorkel and take 10min to learn how to use it.
Fantastic video, I love your editing style! This was a very thorough and well developed video :)
Thanks very much Dans! Really appreciate it!
it feels like watching ozzy man reviews on full face snorkel mask. this is awesome. very entertaining and informative
Thanks a lot! I love that guy! He does some great stuff :) Cheers for the compliment! :)
You have 3k and you have video quality like this is truly incredible keep up the good work man, earned my sub. 😜
Thank you so much Brandon :)
It's good that this video exist since I just ordered this and couldn't find any reviews to see if it was good and it's nice to know it's pretty good
Thanks so much Maria :) I really appreciate the nice words!! Thanks so much!
I can actually equalize without using my hands. So this mask looks good.
Totally! If you can do that without pinching your nose then this thing will be great for you!
Amlik i thought i was the only one. I even do it without touching anything.
Amlik i thought i was the only one. I even do it without touching anything.
Amlik i thought i was the only one. I even do it without touching anything.
Same here
Idk if I'm weird or what not but for me, to equalize, I just yawn
For some people this works on land, for some it work both on land and under water - for me it only works on land.
GivesAMinute I don't have to yawn, but I can equalize on land, sea, and air.
Nicolas Perez what do you mean by air? Do you mean like on a plane?
Gameydudex no he means flapping your arm flaps😂

There's many music under Spike vibes but can't find the specific one used here...
It's so good!
Check the description.
I just bought one thanks for this video, very informative!
Awesome adam! Glad I could be of help for you!
only youtuber who wont cringe at their old videos at the future
Awwww thanks man!! That's a nice comment!! :)
GivesAMinute No problem
Did I miss the part where he said what's wrong with the 180 snorkel
Thanks Alex, it's around the 5 minute mark from memory. Cheers for the support man.
just feels wasted time to looking the "wrong point",and missed which sec …..actually we everybody may busy. play people not really cool
No beard no fu that's what he said
Alex Bainbridge . He noted there is no way to pinch your nose, as you would before gentley trying to blow air through your nose to equalise your ears (called the valsalva manouver).
You cant equalise through your noise.
I don’t know if anyone else noticed this but when ever you cut the video a high piched beep sound would blast my ears and I am going deaf, but it’s worth it I like this guys videos, keep up the good work. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
I am looking to buy a snorkeling mask for my father who is 72 but snorkels in Thailand regularly. I note your review of the seaview 180 but would like a recommendation if you have one?
Unfortunately I don't have a recommendation for you Jackie, except to say I do not recommend this mask!
What about residual volume?
I'm not sure I understand what you are asking Per?
Oh, sorry.
Residual volume is the amount of air that is not exchanged during breathing. It is also called "dead space". en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dead_space_(physiology)
Imagine breathing through a vacuum hose, and that you do not exhale through your nose but have to do all breathing through your mouth.

You don't have to go under water for this to be a problem. www.saltydogs.com/full-face-snorkel-mask-death-11344/
That is really sad to read. Terrible news. Sorry for their families loss :(
clean the mask with toothpaste real well otherwise it will always fog
Got it :) Will do this for sure :)
cory cormier why toothpaste?
Tried this and it didn't work: ua-cam.com/video/2UHvFJ7zXnk/v-deo.html
when you think you're done keep scrubbing
when you first get the mask it is dirty when you clean it with toothpaste real well it cleans it/buffs it.
Nice vid dude keep it up!
Thanks Andrik :)
Where you get camera holder for this mask? Becuase normal model is without this holder.. Thanks a lot for answer..
The Seaview 180 comes standard with a GoPro mount sf2cz, check the link in the video description.
1:34 listen VERY VERY carefully... you should hear a very high pitch noise
What's your computer setup?
GivesAMinute i hear it too and I'm on iPhone 6s+
GivesAMinute what do you mean by that
Oml I heard it!!
GivesAMinute I used to record my tv and just crop out my room but now I have a recording software for my computer so pretty soon I’m going to record with apowersoft screen recorder which records my mac’s screen
hey bud, kinda like the idea of doing a review and vlogging at the same time. Nice vid. liked and subbed you. 👍

about 12 mins too long
Thanks for stopping by with your thoughts Jon.
Lol savage
Atticus-R funny
Dang! You grew quick! You had 500 in January and now have 2k in June! I'm a new subscriber btw
Thanks very much Jacob :) Stoked to have you on board!!
Thanks a mil, great review and very useful.
Thanks so much Seabean! Glad to have been a help! :)
I thought this mask let you breath underwater
Nope, not at all!! Don't be confused by the sketchy marketing - you cannot breathe underwater with this!
GivesAMinute with mine I I breath in slowly and for about 15 to 30 second also if you spit inside of the mask it stops fogging up :)
I guess you can take a second breath, but it's not really recommended as you are breathing in the air you exhaled already!
GivesAMinute true btw you can also buy stuff for the fogging and if you want I can send you some my dad would go diving for logs in Wisconsin so he use some of this stuff so he bought me some so when I go snorkeling on a vacation my mask doesn't fog up
I gave the mask away so don't have access to it anymore :( But thanks for the offer and the suggestion :)
1k🎉
Thanks AJ :)
Thanks for mentioning the equalization thing because i was waiting to see how i could equalize while diving ;)
No problem General :) Glad to be of help!
GivesAMinute i heard from my friend that there are something that you should put into your nose and some other company's in your ears to help you equalize while diving .
Yeah I had heard of the nose clamp method too and tried it here: ua-cam.com/video/2UHvFJ7zXnk/v-deo.html It didn't work :(
GivesAMinute omg thanks for telling me that so that i won't wast my money buying it .. i am a big fan of diving deep :)
My pleasure man! Glad I could help!
Thank you for the review now I can get mine
Great! Please use the link in the description, you will help me out :)
You look like Malcom Turnbull

That high pitched noise destroyed my ears. Had to shut off, not even 30 seconds in the video... :/
Not everyone hears it, sorry you do.
Can those who hear it please tell me their computer setup?
Ace Jagare I really don't hear it
youtube won't display more then 16kHz without headphones
Interesting Ausintune... So what you are saying is unless you are using headphone you won't hear it?
WOW GiveAminute You are AMAZING!!! Loved it thanks;)

Yeah I was in discussions with Tribord to make a review of their Easybreath mask but the conversation stopped on their behalf. Glad you enjoy yours K2020 :)
These masks suck to breathe in. Doesn't feel like you can get a full clear breath.
I didn't notice that, but overall I wasn't a fan of the mask.
GivesAMinute because you take back in alot of the air you exhaled into it
I understand this is also quite dangerous!!
GivesAMinute can't be that bad. people wear altitude masks for training all the time. I'm just not a fan of inhaling my exhale lol
Heheh! This is fair enough!! It's not the nicest thing to think of doing :)
Your drivers seat is on the wrong side
How is it "wrong"?
GivesAMinute actually it is on the right side
CDawgIZBeast Actually in America the drivers seat is on the left. And in England it's on the right. So it's not wrong.
What about Australia, where he lives?
BENP same thing, i live there

Thanks Robert. Sydney is stunning! I agree!! Yes, wise move to hold off. I've got two other products to review in an upcoming episode so stay tuned.
I saw this face mask a year ago in a sports shop and thought it’s really funny! Might get one when I start getting into snorkelling again! Subbed 😊
Thanks very much Yaiyasmin! I'd recommend you pick up this one: ua-cam.com/video/oyrGzW5xiNo/v-deo.html Cheers for the support on my channel!

the way u show it, funny..think it honest review..luv the video..keep u the good work bro
Thanks very much Arif :) Cheers!
One of the reasons I like living in the US, is most products I order are being shipped from the US (After their initial delivery from china or wherever, to suppliers), so delivery times are often within 5 days max.
Yeah and you guys can also expedite shipping to make it even quicker! Strangely enough whenever I order through Amazon to ship to Australia I am amazed at how cheap the actual shipping cost is? I guess they deal with such large volumes they have a discount setup...
Wow.....now that was WAY cooool. Subbed!
Thanks very much Ken:) Appreciate the support!
you are making serious good video's man i dont know why you only have 4.3k you are a nice guy good job man you doing good keep going man

I really enjoyed your video! Great content, great entertainment and a great person for what it seems like! You just earned yourself another subscriber😄
Ahhh thank you so much buddy! :) welcome on board!
Great review cheers mate 👍
Thanks so much Joe :)
I have the original Decathlon Easybreathe and it doesn't fog up at all. But, I still can't dive very far down and on surface snorkeling often a wave will cause the dry snorkel to lock closed and then momentarily you can't breathe!
Ouch! That sounds like a terrible thing to have happen!!! Scary!!
You are charming!! Loved your humor and attitude, subbing from landlocked Denver, Co. WHAT was I thinking being so far from the Oceans?!?
Awww thanks KM!! Really appreciate the support!! Feeling you being landlocked :(
Beance Tubaire Voluntaire (BTV) or Voluntary Tubal Opening is the preferred method of equalization once mastered. It feels very much like a yawn and a difference in tonal quality of sounds will be noticed when successful. The muscles of the upper throat are used to pull open the Eustachian tube.
Cheers man :) I tried a few different methods of equalisation here: ua-cam.com/video/2UHvFJ7zXnk/v-deo.html
Absolutely beautiful clear water!
Oh yeah! Pretty lucky to have such lovely places so close to home!!
Great video. I need to get one of these masks soon. I subscribed to and liked the video
Thanks so much Gamenat :) I really appreciate it!
GivesAMinute I didn't say it but I really like your videos to. Kepp up the good work!!
Thanks so much mate :) It's nice to hear such positive feedback!
There is a brand called body glove that has a full face snorkel with a rubberized nose so you can equalize
I was in talks with them a while back, it went no where.
For the part where you said that the snorkel mask is not used for depth. All you can do to not pressure your face is to hold your breath until you go your desired point below the surface and while down there exhale from your nose or mouth for as long as possible until you can get back up into the surface.
Kaya, that doesn't change the pressure of the water building up the deeper you go, but it does sound like a good way to control/slow down your heart rate.
As a scubadiver-- per the fogging, can you clear it when underwater? Also, on the equalizing, they need to design a rubber nose piece with some kind of access through the front of the mask. Not sure how they'd engineer this.
Thans Jnau, I have seen this happen underwater and it blows me away whenever someone does it! I don't think I am skilled enough to do it tho :( Agree with you about the rubber nose piece! Good idea!
The original Easybreath was designed and manufactured by Tripord in France in 2013 and I have the Original Tribord Mask and it does not Fog up and all my kids use it for surface snorkelling which was its intended purpose by the french design team
Thanks Brendan. I was in talks with Tribord to review their mask however the talks fell flat from their end.
How did you find a round one all the ones on Amazon from Seaview are flat faced
No idea Mike, was just what they shipped me when I ordered?
I never had a snorkel, but if the little tube thing is under the water can you breathe? Because I have no idea how it works... Or can you only breath when the tube is out in the air
You cannot breathe underwater with this thing at all. It looks like you can from their advertising, but that is misleading.
One question does it store air inside from when the snorkel was above the water and then you dive and use it
Hi Sean, no not at all. This is a misconception, you cannot breathe underwater with this mask :)
Can you use nose plugs in the mask to equalize?
Dude, you deserve way more subscribers.
Thanks man :) Appreciate the nice vibes!
I love this channel tho I wish he would do more reviews like this keep up the good work! 😃
Thanks so much Gauge :) I'm in Fiji right now and working on a follow-up video with the suggestions everyone has made here for the Seaview 180, then I also have another product to test while here...
Thanks for sharing! Thumbs up!
My pleasure! Glad you enjoyed it :)
Really love this vlog! Love your opinion I might just have to get one!
Thanks so much Sammy! Appreciate the support!! :)
GivesAMinute thanks for the reply! Means a lot to me. You seem like such a sweet guy!
Thanks so much :) I try hard to present myself as the best person I can be! :)
GivesAMinute success my man. You have done it.
Thank you!!!
Great vlogging mate. What's the name of the song used throughout the vid?
Thanks mate, the song is by a friend of mine Paul Walsh, it's called "Back To The Start", you can find more about Paul here: pwalsh.me/
To equalized,can try before put on the mask? Or do it with holding on breath?
Nah man, it's not possible as you need to continually equalise as you snorkel around. It's not a one-off thing you do once during a snorkel.
Good test drive & unboxing but you didn't say how much or if it leaked. I don't have a beard but I have an awesome Fumanchu down to the Adams apple so that's why I'd like to know how much it leaks. Also, about your home brew. You said it was an English style but I've never heard of beer for a couple of months. Could you also post a link to that (the home brew) also?
Thanks mate :) Yeah it leaked a little - you can see it running down the inside of the mask as I use it. How much exactly I am not 100% sure, but my face was not dry after use. That English stye home brew was this one mate: www.aussiebrewmakers.com.au/Coopers-English-Bitter.html?ref_cat_id=home-brew-Coopers-International If you do make one yourself let me know how it tastes!
I bought mine in France it seems to be a much higher quality the anti fog works perfectly
Which brand Lareth?
where is the location of this vlog? amazing place.
Cheers Nicholas, this is at Wattamolla in Sydney, Australia.
Thanks for the answer you are the best reviewer of this mask 👍👍👍👍👍👍
You are very welcome! Cheers :)
Good to see a fellow Aussie doing well
Thanks buddy!
I have just been watching a bunch of vids on these new fangled snorkel masks, and I am wondering if they could be multi purpose, like outfitted creatively as emergency respirators
in bad air type circumstances? I was always no good as a kid with snorkeling, and never have snorkeled as an adult, but I would do so, with some of these new snorkel masks. They are really pretty damn cool!
Thanks Dave. It's a good question. I actually am not sure if they could be used that way, but I am sure someone has tried!
ok so let's say you can equalize your ears with out holding your nose, what happens as the water pressure increases and you need to equalize your mask could you do it or would it just can't?
I just tried again (vlog coming) and you can't. None of the methods mentioned here worked for me. I gave the mask away.
Where did you get the money for all this Photography equipment?
Before I started photography full time I worked three jobs to get the cash to buy my gear.
GivesAMinute Wow,
If you really want it then you'll chase it until you get it. When you get it you'll deserve it, if you want it hard enough.
anyone know the song that plays when he finally gets In the water with the piano
It's called "Back To The Start" and it's by a friend of mine: pwalsh.me
how about nose plugs. put them on so when you need to pressurize, the nose plugs would be like pinching your nose and breath out gently. do you think that would work?
Thanks buddy, I tried a few different methods here: ua-cam.com/video/2UHvFJ7zXnk/v-deo.html
I've used gas mask for work and I would think that tends to work similar. Therefore, wouldn't having facial hair let the water in?
Not really, I mean I couldn't feel any water coming in from the chin area.
Nice filming mate!
Thanks Bas :)
thanks for the video
Thanks for watching and commenting nelson :)
Congradz on 2 mil views!
Yeah!! Thanks mate!! Woo!!!!
I don't know why but I'm glad it was in my recommended :)
Thanks Reese :) Glad you dig! And welcome to the channel :)
Can i just put something to pimch my nose constantly before puting the mask so i can exualise?
I tired that here Serbian: ua-cam.com/video/2UHvFJ7zXnk/v-deo.html
cool vid only thing i got anoyed by was the high pitch frequenzy sound i kept hearing
Hey Damien, was it only with the GoPro footage (so, only with any footage from under water)?
No i heard it when you was inside unpacking and explaining about the snorkel, then you went drive outside and when you hit the beach for 1 sec at 4:02 you could hear again the high pitch sound. after that it was all good audio
Ok good to know that it wasn't the GoPro, it's my old Sony RX10 Mark II (no longer using it). Thanks for the heads up :)
