New Mask....Good or Bad?

  • I just bought a Riffe Frameless mask, and while the FOV is great and there's tons of space, I know it's a high volume mask. I've heard that this makes problems as the ATMs increase as you dive, and you need to blow out more air to equalize, which means less air for actual diving. Will this be a problem if I probably won't be diving deeper than 30 feet? It's shallow water Bimini spearing. Thanks

  • No problem, some guys including Jay Riffe still use a round mask, guys in French Poly still pearl dive to 130FSW
    with a round face plate. The Riffe frameless is low volume in comparison.


    Cheers, Don
