The other person with me had the old basic snorkel and it was night and day difference. Almost never any water in the tube. Clips onto the mask to stay upright. The positioning notches are a little weak at holding the the clip that slides up and down, but really didn't cause any issues.

After deciding to ditch the full face snorkel masks and go back to "old school" for safety reasons, I settled on this snorkel for our next trip to Aruba. Having just come back from two weeks there and lots of opportunity to test it out, I can definitely attest to its performance. I didn't get any water in, even when I inadvertently tipped my head back too far. The purge valve is awesome, and the mechanism at the top does its job as well. I would highly recommend this snorkel - great value for the money, and a range of color options to suit pretty much anyone's taste. I'm glad I ended up going with this one instead of one that was triple the price!

I am 67 years old and swim in a pool regularly to help loose weight and get strength back after 2 years in a wheelchair. I snorkel 1/3 mile and do Isometric exercises. I had a different snorkel from Amazon that had over 2,000 reviews, but I kept getting water in the tube. I like this snorkel a lot better. It is slightly taller than my old one so I don't get the water in it. I like the mouth piece way better, very comfortable without digging into my gums. Finally, my breathing flows much easier in this snorkel. I highly recommend this snorkel for adults.

This is the best snorkel I have ever used. It does such a good job of keeping air out of the tube, particularly in choppy water. It is also very easy to clear and barely needs clearing when you go under. It is comfortable and easy to attach to any mask. I would definitely recommend.

This is a fine snorkel. It lets you breath while swimming. It has a nice plastic clip to attach to a mask.The backflow preventer is not perfect, as it can stick.The mouthpiece is comfortableThe large end is NOT great while SCUBA diving in a current as it wobbles.

This snorkel has nice soft silicone flex tube and mouth piece which is very comfortable to use. The mouth piece has a smaller form factor that feels much more natural in my mouth; less like a large mouth guard. The flex tube is naturally bent a little so it doesn't try to pull the mouth piece out like other snorkels with a straight tube.Both the dry and purge valves work awesome! If you swim a little crazy and go upside down or flip around and turn the snorkel upside down, it does stay dry for he most part but it is possible that a little water can get in. I will say that it definitely is a lot less than other 'dry' snorkels that I've tried.The best thing though is that because the silicone flex tube is so soft, it's really easy to just squeeze it a little and blow a big puff of air to get rid of the water, even while still underwater! I think the extra bit of space between the mouthpiece and purge valve is what helps keep whatever little water that gets in, away from the airway.It's also really cool looking, and the logo is pretty cool, so there's that.

I love this snorkel! I have a back issue that doesn't allow me to do regular swimming because the twisting motion makes my back worse. But I love the water so I've adapted by using a mask and snorkel and exercise fins to do an underwater kind of breast stroke and up and down kicking using the swim fins to propel me through the water. This exercise actually strengthens the multifidus muscles in my back so that my back feels better for a good two days after I swim Anyway, back to the snorkel. I started with an inexpensive mask and snorkel combination to see if this way of "swimming" would work for me and it did, but the mask was uncomfortable and the snorkel mouthpiece was pretty hard and maybe because of the effort of holding it in my mouth, it took on water by the end of the third lap and I had to stop to let the water out. I did a lot of research and bought a new mask, then decided on this snorkel. What a difference! The mouthpiece is soft and comfortable and for whatever reason, it doesn't take on water so I'm able to swim continuous laps, making my swim sessions completely enjoyable. I swim twice a week for 40 minutes and am careful to thoroughly rinse the snorkel after use and to let dry thoroughly before putting it back in my swim bag. Although I almost caved and bought another snorkel in order to have a pretty color, I'm really happy that I bought this basic black but extremely well functioning snorkel. Good equipment definitely makes a difference.

I bought this snorkel for a trip in the Atlantic due to high reviews. It sucks that it took several uses for me to find out it doesn't work for me or my bf.Pros:Solid constructionMade of siliconeQuick clip is greatCons:I did not think this was that great of a dry snorkel. I dove several times but coming up I purged and it was like the ball got stuck so any waves coming over would start to get water in my snorkel. Not good.It's uncomfortable for small mouths. I know I have a small mouth. It is because my jaw does not open so wide. So clenching on this mouthpiece got uncomfortable at times. I will also say that my bf suffered from ball palsy when he was younger and he does have some control of his facial muscle but the mouthpiece was too big to form a comfortable seal for him.This is my first dry snorkel but I have used plenty of wet and semi drys before.Edit: cover piece over the purge valve fell off. No idea when and why it comes off so easily. I decided to purchase a different brand dry snorkel and confirmed that the mouth piece on this is a hard no for my small mouth. I've dove with this snorkel for over a year now and I'll be retiring it / keeping it as a spare for guests.
