Oceanic Ultra Dry Snorkel
Rating: Ultra Dry is True 1/7/2010

Used this in Cozumel, my first with a Dry Snorkel, it really works and is comfortable. A little pricey but worth it. Recommeded.

Scuba Mask, Fin & Snorkel Backpack Bag
Rating: Compact and Cool 1/7/2010

This backpack allows you to take your basic gear and a few add ons without having to haul a full gear bag. Looks great and can be carried over shoulder or as a backpack. Worth the price for times you dont need to carry full gear.

Mares Raptor Adjustable Strap Split Fins
Rating: Raptor Fins-Winner 1/7/2010

These Raptors are great looking, and give great thrust with little effort, such an improvement over my old Tusa fins. Recommended. Great product at a decent price.

XS Scuba V3 M-Line Purge Mask
Rating: XS V3 Purge Mask 8/10/2009

I had not replaced my old mask in years, wow, what a difference the XS Scuba is great, very comfortable, seals great, looks great, is very well made, easy to purge with the nose valve. The way the mask is styled their is virtually no obstruction in vision. Love the hair pad, unlike the older masks that always pulled your hair, this one is very easy to put on and off. I used the mask in Cozumel for the first time and highly recommend it. My wife tried it one and loved the fit and wide range of peripheral vision.

Oceanic Ultra Dry Snorkel
Rating: Oceanic Ultra Dry (well almost) 8/10/2009

I used the snorkel in Cozumel at the end of July, it works quite well, but still allows some water to get in the tube before the valve seals, so you still have to keep enough breath to "blow" the water out of the tube that is the only reason I didnt give it a 5. It is a great improvement over the old style open snorkels, looks great, and is very well made, so if there was a 4.5 out of 5 I would vote that way. Recommend this product.
