Essential well-designed mask for lap swimming

I have had this item for years- it wore out and I just replaced it. There's a good reason they are using the same design--it's excellent.

The TUSA brand is on my snorkel and fins as well.

I bought this one because I had TUSA Imprex for over 20 years of scuba diving. All things must come to an end as did the mask. The mask works as well as my first one, so I am highly please with it. However, the additional side glass adds very little to me.

Great madk

I’ve been dining for 50 years and this is the best fitting mask I’ve had. Very comfortable and no leaks.

Tusa Imprex 3D works for me.

Personally, this mask has been the best and a favorite of mines for many years. I have been unable to find the Tusa HyperDry mask in any local dive shops in my region, and only LeisurePro had the black-on-black in stock -- which was the one I desired. Functionally, this mask fits my needs given its volume and field of vision. I have a big nose and an oval-framed face, which has made low-profile mask difficult for me to feel comfortable in. The purge is as added bonus; exhaust bubbles are routed towards the side skirting of the frame keeping the ability to see while clearing, uncompromised. I do not mind the overall size of the mask as I am more of a fan when it comes design. I do own a pricier Atomic Aquatics Subframe Arc mask, yet it is the Tusa Imprex 3D that I prefer.

Easy clearing and equalizing

I always wanted a mask with purge and this model is the perfect one i found. Two of my dive buddies wanted to buy this model already when they saw it. Ease of clearing your mask at it's best. You can even equalize easier even when wearing a thick diving gloves.

Nice mask, good fit

Bought this mask to replace a similar one from a different maker that developed a serious leak from a cracked frame. This one fits even better and is very comfortable.

Good mask

Good mask - only after I used a lighter to remove the coating. Using toothpaste to clean and rub the lens to remove the coating is hardly effective - keeps fogging. After using lighter to burn off the coating, mask is clear and doesn't fog anymore :) Would consider this a good mask, hopefully it will last a long time with proper care and maintenance.

Best Mask I have ever used.

I received this mask as a Christmas gift and just used on my first dive yesterday 12/29/2016 in Laguna Beach California. It did not leak at all. The self purging valve works absolutely perfect. Using a Scuba regulator will require 2 handed ear clearing while a snorkel should require only 1 hand. I didn't know if I would like having to use 2 hands to clear ears but it was actually very easy. The field of vision is fantastic. The side panel lenses really act as a rear view mirror much like the function of a left and right rear view mirror in a car. On my first use I did apply lense defogger and entered water with a fair amount of saliva also. I filled the mask full of seawater, exhaled through nose, out came the water, and perfectly clear mask. I actually like the mask strap also. I usually use a neoprene mask strap for comfort but this one works fine.

Tusa purge mask

At depth, hard frame presses on lip. This is not noticeable until you get at least 20 or 30 feet down.

Highly Recommended

Best mask I've used. I lost my first one and searched everywhere for a replacement (as i live in the philippines and it's not easily available). Wouldn't use another type of mask. Mask clearing is so easy, except having to use two hands, field of vision is clear and crisp.

Awesome mask, Love it

I use my mask for snorkeling. The full mask allows for easy viewing. Love the purge valve, don't have to pull mask away from face to clear any water that might get in. Purchased one for my husband, he also loves it. Wouldn't buy any other band.

Weather report: dry but foggy

All my masks leak, so I've been in try-anything mode for years (250 dives). So when this one fails to seal for me, don't take it personally. The fit is comfortable, except for some pressure on the tip of my nose. Yes, clearing takes two hands or a very tricky one-hand palm-up maneuver. This is due to the rigid design around the nose. The purge is super sensitive compared to others and cleverly exits the bubbles around the sides. Just a gentle normal exhale sends some out the purge. I'm wondering if this is the fogging culprit, nothwithstanding the curse of my bad mask karma. I experienced no fogging with previous purge masks. Sorry I can't guarantee my experience will be yours, but I tried to help. BTW, Leisure Pro insists I check something in the "best uses" category. If they want an unbiased review they should refrain from "leading the witness."

Only mask that fits

The crease of my eyes are far back and this has made finding a proper-fitting mask almost impossible. This is the only mask I have found that fits properly and while under water, does not leak. I feel like the range of vision is limited, but this may be due to the shape of my face. The only issue I have noticed is a bit of pressure under the nose, causing discomfort after 20-30 minutes of use. Has not caused any issues with my dives.

Difficult to equalize

This mask has served me well while snorkelling however I always suffered a squeeze that I could never resolve and fogging issues. However I used it on 2 dives recently and no such problems. It seems to fit better and perform better when diving. The biggest issue though is the need to use two hands to equalize. Not that it is a problem but it is inconvenient. The range of vision is more than excellent and even in clear water glare and light was not a problem. I have to say I had my doubts about how comfortable this would be while diving but no squeeze meant I had lots of fun.

You may need two hands to equalize.

The only problem I have with this mask is that your nose is protected by the hard frame making it difficult to equalize with one hand. I usually have to use both of my index fingers on each side of my nose to equalize. If you're carrying any other gear, it can get cumbersome.

- The purge works well, but I prefer my old mask without purge. This model will be part of my spare dive gear.

Great Mask

This is a great mask. I used it diving in Mexico and couldn't have asked for anything better. It didn't fog, and was very easy to clear. It's one of the better masks I've used.

Bone dry mask

Excellent fit,never leaked and the only problem I had was face squeeze at depths below 40' but was fixed by exhaling into the mask.Take a little practice equalizing with one hand.

Larger View Area

I like Tusa masks, snorkels, and split fins. The Imprex III Hyperdry Mask provides a larger view area, a purge valve, and works as expected. I have always preferred a more open view mask. This was a great choice. The Tusa products I have used all seem to be quality products. Never had any issues.

Difficult to use

I liked this mask, except you will need to use both hands to equalize, pinching nose.

Great mask, fits well, purges easily

Finding a mask with a purge value has become extremely difficult. This is the second version of this mask that I have used, fit is exceptional, great sensation of openness and the purge valve works flawlessly.

I use my mask for snorkeling. The full mask allows for easy viewing. Love the purge valve, don't have to pull mask away from face to clear any water that might get in. Purchased one for my husband, he also loves it. Wouldn't buy any other band.

The M-32 Imprex 3D Hyperdry 3-Window Mask is a re-design of TUSA's very popular TM-8000Q Imprex Hyperdry, but with several key improvements. The Imprex 3D Hyperdry features TUSA's patented Hyperdry system which allows for easy, no-nonsense clearing of the mask with a single exhalation. Additionally, the Imprex 3D Hyperdry incorporates 1-front tempered glass lens and side windows for enhanced panoramic and peripheral vision and TUSA's patented round edge skirt for greater comfort and fit. Like all TUSA masks, the Imprex 3D Hyperdry offers a wide range of features to enhance comfort and provide clarity of vision while underwater.

Clearing a mask has never been easier thanks to Tuas's patented Hyperdry System. Simply breathe out through your nose and any water that has accumulated in your mask is forced out through a one-way purge valve, once the mask is clear, the valve seals shut automatically. TUSA's round edge skirt features a proprietary round edge cross-sectionally shaped skirt. This rounded edge results in a soft fit that suppresses pressure and reduces creasing left on the face. The "planar fit, instead of linear fit" silicone skirt maintains great fit and unprecedented comfort, you won't have ring-around-the-eyeballs" like with other masks. The mask has a double feathered edge silicone rubber skirt and although a 3-window design still has a low internal volume.

The mask is equipped with a wide split design mask strap with easy adjust buckles. Underneath the purge valve housing are 2-nose pinch finger wells for ear equalization which can be utilized even when wearing thick gloves. Mask is available in multiple color choices and comes with a protective mask box.
