Snorkel equipment

Post by jdw »

For Christmas I want to give my husband a basic set with mask, snorkel and fins. I don't want to spend a lot of money because he will only use it once every two-three years. I would like to order from the internet. Any recommendations on brand and where to order from?

Thanks.

Jdw,
I got mine on Ebay and only paid 20-30 buck each and I got 2 sets. I figure that if it's 10 buck a day and I snork every day were there, We just saved 120 bucks. unless you get wigged out over used stuff I would take a look.

Mask

Post by Beachboy »

Maybe it is just me, but I feel that a mask needs to be fitted to your face. People have different size heads, features, and preferences so I think to get a proper fit, you need to go to a good dive shop and be fitted. Nothing spoils a snokel faster than a leaky mask.

I agree with Beachboy. It is very difficult to buy a mask like that. It's kinda like buying false teeth on line. :shock: Yes there are 32 of them but how well do they fit? :wink:

Perhaps a gift card it the way to go.
