Hey, snorkel enthusiasts. I get a lot of questions from people who want to know how breathing works on a full-face snorkel mask. These are the top questions I want to cover in this article.
Can you really breathe underwater as if you're not underwater?
The short answer is that yes, you can breathe underwater with a full-face snorkel mask. We wouldn't send you out there with a mask that restricted or prevented your breathing. Before I dive into more details let me explain to you how to breathe with a traditional snorkel and with a G2RISE snorkel mask. In case you missed it.
A traditional snorkel mask is one that involves having a tube in your mouth that sticks out above the water. You inhale and exhale through the tube, and we can kind of see why it can be freaky for some people. It's not uncommon to have water accidentally enter the tube, making you choke, and it's easy to suffer jaw fatigue and claustrophobia when you're a newbie.
Now, with the G2RISE snorkel shark full-face normal mask you breathe it the same as you would normally as in as if you weren't even underwater. The mask covers your whole face, hence being called a full face mask, so that you can breathe through both your nose and mouth. Do a bit of this, a bit of that, do whatever you like.
Does it really help to ease the anxiety associated with breathing with a traditional snorkel mask?
G2RISE snorkel mask designed the full face snorkel mask so that breathing is natural, comfortable and easy, so even little kids and people with snorkel phobia can have a go. So, there's no tube? Well, they're still a tube, because how else are we going to get air inside your mask. That said the tube is connected to the top of the mask rather than your mouth, so you can rest easy and forget about that jaw fatigue. You can stick your tongue out and smile in photos and you can talk, yes, even your GoPro camera will pick up what you are talking about under the water with a full-face snorkel mask.
Look, I don't like to say the word "never", but the G2RISE snorkel mask has done everything possible to reduce your chances of choking on the water while wearing a full-face snorkel mask.
How have they done that?
With a dry top anti-leak seal that prevents water from entering your mask. Basically, a ball or multiple balls sit at the top of the snorkel tube keeping the air valve sealed while you're underwater, so that no water is able to enter. if any water does get into your mask, a drainage system will make sure it's automatically expelled so your mask stays nice and dry and you're breathing uninterrupted. A full-face normal mask isn't going to turn you into a mermaid, but it sure will keep you breathing underwater for longer.
If you're not a fan of traditional snorkel masks, you'll definitely love the freedom and comfort of breathing underwater with a full-face snorkel mask. It's never felt more natural and easy and if you don't take our word for it then you'll just have to try it out for yourself!
