First test of my new Mares Viper freediving mask in Croatia -

After watching this clip I opted against the Mares viper and got me a Dorrle set with a snorkel instead. Never felt sorry for it, but noticed one thing: the manual that came with the set said you shouldn‘t use any aggressive detergents for the inside of the goggles. So I used only washing up liquid. Perhaps the toothpaste isn‘t such a good choice after all, as it contains small particles which might harm the surface of the glass. In any case the washing up liquid has done a great job so far, just as well as the Dorlle goggle.

Hello there just next time from my experience if u don't have the toothpaste u can use a detergent for dishes that is anti foggy and if u don't want to pollute the water in Adriatic sea u can use your own spit and simple let it set for 1 min rinse it and ready to go my man thanks for your video I just bought the same mask cheers from macedonia

Even I was burned twice,the mask continued the fog so I put it in the closet and I took my old mares for use

I wonder if anyone managed to be able to use this mask without fogging. I burned mine too, and it is still fogging...

Did you use a baby shampoo or something for defogger? Did it still fog after defogger?

Nice review man! Use piezo lighter to burn the inside layer, so you can control the flame better.. I did it with mine Cressi mask, got no fog now.. Cheers!

you save air reserve. yes. of course. where can i learn that? and the wish for a mask "that works out of the box" - great.

Nice one Tom,just bought two of these as back ups but after watching your review the old Cessi masks may well be the back ups to these,did you get the fogging issue sorted?
@tjashton4 жыл бұрын
Thanks Jeff. Yes the fogging was easily sorted with toothpaste. 18 months later and the mask is doing great. Very comfortable and well made.

How is the fit at the temples? The mask looks very narrow. Do you feel more pressure on the temples (in comparison to other masks) ? I have a wider face and was thinking about some headaches this could produce..
@tjashton2 жыл бұрын
I have not noticed any issue in that regard. The skirt is quite wide, which makes the mask seem smaller. I bought this in 2018 and I still use it as my main mask today.

How comfortable is this Viper mask to the face? Does it leave marks? I shark dive and my old Cressi low volume is about to be replaced. I realized yesterday I need a new and better-designed mask that fits more comfortably and doesn't absolutely mangle your face after an hour in the water. Also -- have you heard if the fogging issue has been resolved? Thanks. -- J

Still liking the mask? How deep are you usually going and how does it feel then?
@tjashton2 жыл бұрын
The mask is getting old and tired but it’s still in use. I don’t dive deep. Mainly I hunt lobster and photograph at max 10m so I can’t comment on its deep performance. But longevity is good!

Does is seal well with your mustache? Looking for a better mask and it looks like this one doesn't leak even with a little facial hair.

It seals fine to my moustache. No problem. The rubber area that contacts the face is quite wide.

what is with the yellow diving weight at 3:22?!
@tjashton4 жыл бұрын
Its 1kg weight that i sometimes clip on the end of my bouy line, and drop it to the sand. It allows me to leave the bouy static when I'm filming / photographing in a small area. Allows me to surface right next to the bouy without getting loops of line everywhere.
