Among the handful of gear used in freediving, the freediving mask holds a special place. A freediving mask facilitates breath holding – the most important technique in freediving. To ensure your safety and to improve your diving experience, having a high-quality freediving mask is a must, which is why we offer only the best products at Scuba Warehouse.

Why Do You Need a Freediving Mask?

Unlike scuba diving, freediving is a sport done in the deep waters. The deeper you dive into the sea, the heavier the water column above you becomes, increasing the water pressure alongside. Hence, having a mask that can withstand high water pressure while providing you with adequate visibility is a must. Freediving masks are specially designed to meet this requirement, which is why as a freediver, you need to choose them over the regular scuba masks that sometimes fail to provide integrity under high water pressure. 

Apart from providing visibility and comfort, a freediving mask also helps divers equalise during their dive. When the diver descends, the ambient pressure rises, and it becomes necessary to equalise the pressure inside the mask with the external ambient pressure to avoid the barotrauma known as mask squeeze. This is done by allowing sufficient air to flow out through the nose into the mask to relieve the pressure difference. The key to experiencing better equalisation is to wear a freediving mask with a good fit.

How to Choose a Quality Freediving Mask?

As it plays a crucial role in your dive, choosing a freediving mask requires proper knowledge and utmost care. Therefore, when purchasing one, you need to pay attention to several factors. For instance, if your mask leaks, has too much volume, or is a challenge to equalise, you’ll struggle to have a successful dive. When it comes to freediving masks, a wide range of viewport shapes and internal volumes are available on the market, and each design will generally fit some face shapes better than  others. A comfortable fit and a reliable seal around the edges of the rubber skirt are crucial for the proper functioning of the mask. If you are looking for a freediving mask for yourself, here’s what you need to consider:

  • Fit and Comfort: It is highly advised to opt for a mask with a skirt made of high-grade silicone, as it offers superior flexibility, durability, and comfort. You may test the fit by placing the mask on your face without using the strap and gently inhaling to check if it stays in place.
  • Field of Vision: Your mask is what determines your field of vision underwater. Therefore, look for a mask with wide lenses or a low-profile design that offers an expansive field of vision. A wider field of vision allows you to fully immerse yourself in the underwater world and enhance safety by improving peripheral awareness.
  • Anti-Fogging Technology: Fogging inside the mask hinders your vision as well as your overall diving experience. Hence, it is always good to choose a mask with anti-fogging features, such as a coated lens or an integrated anti-fog layer. This will prevent the mask from fogging up, ensuring crystal-clear visibility throughout your dive.
