Watching this because I just watched a 38 year old man drown in Maui while snorkeling. He was in the water alone and his family was on the beach. They were unable to revive him after CPR for 45 min. I realized that I know nothing about "snorkel safety" and did not know that was even a thing to take so seriously until now. He was using a traditional 2 piece snorkel but I have this full face mask.

Used a normal mask with snorkel for years and just purchased a full face design
Thanks for the heads up on safety and advice with your instructional video

What a great video. I've had my full face mask for a while and I've snorkeled many times in Maui where the water is pretty rough at times. The great thing about these masks is they don't fog. So it was good to know that if they do it may be a sign of trouble. Good to know.

I bought this snorkel mask about a month ago and love it!!! I'm snorkeling quite frequently with friends and amazed how easy it is. Just need to ensure that the mask is "snug" against your face as suggested. I like to clean the mask before and also dry off the water so you can have the best experience viewing in the water. I'm actually quite hesitant to go under water with it, as you mentioned, it should be more for just on the surface, which I agree. Most places to viewing marine life does occur deeper than 5 feet. Yet, good to know that I can still breath with the mask under water. Its also a best practice to always wash your masks to prevent the salt water from damaging or eroding it. I use soap, water and a sponge to clean it after each use. With the enjoyment of exploring the underwater life, just be aware where you are in relation to the shore as I have a number of times explored further out than expected. Stay safe and enjoy the experience.

super educational. everything are spot on. safety should always be a priority and everytime go out or do something new. always ask yourself "WHAT AM I WILLING TO RISK".

Just bought a full face Snorkel... and this video explains its use well. Thanks buddy.
You should include...
TIMING... how long you should comfortably and safely stay under water.
TRAINING... how to test your training, when you are trained well.
SNORKEL... how to take care of it so it lasts long and keeps good.
BUDDY TRAINING... how should your guardian angel guard you and when and how he/she should do his/her lifesaving act.

I am absolutely devastated to go snorkeling before watching some of your videos. I could've done sooo MANY more things if i had.

[atnshooter]

I am a NAUI Instructor and I like the explanation! Good video!

[nsdfancy]

Thank you soo much, I got one of these and I tested it out but then I saw the fog and I realized that I was rebreathing the air. After watching this video i knew what the problem was and fixed it

Thanks for this video. My sons now know what to do

[marcomorin]

Usefull video. Thank you. I just recieved and tried the Rocontrip full face mask in the pool and it works just fine. I heading down to the Dominican for 3-4 weeks and I am really looking forward to trying it out there but I am also bringing my regular mask and snorkle to go deeper as I find the full face mask creates too much pressure as you said. It is ideal for surface snorkling and maybe go down to 3-5 feet at the most for short periods. Thanks again and good diving!
