To get it in and out of your mouth just turn it, it will not move out of position. Noah 09-21-2007, 09:42 PM Doesn't that hurt the side of your head? I gots no hair and if I dive like that all day long- serious head ache. Maybe a softer snorkel? Speareasy 09-21-2007, 09:52 PM All the snorkels I used were relatively soft, maybe avoid the ones with built in keepers, those would be harder. No, they won't hurt your head.

Sort of behind your head. Might take a little playing with get it comfortable. When you take the snorkel out of your mouth, it sits more behind your head - doesn't flop around as much. cmfish 09-22-2007, 01:31 PM I use an Omer Zoom snorkel. Works great and made out of soft rubber. Oto has one for sale here if you're interested. http://www.spearfishingplanet.com/showthread.php?t=1824 |
