20 Reasons I bought aTribord Easybreath Snorkel Mask & 8 bad ones not to

I purchased a neat Tribord snorkel mask the other day and decided to do a product review. None of the reviews I saw on YouTube were very comprehensive or went into detail on some of the negatives. I like the Tribord very much and recommend it. There are a few other snorkelling masks on the market such as the October Moon and Seaview snorkel masks which are nearly identical to the Tribord Easy breath snorkelling mask. Most of what I covered in the video will apply to them also. You can find out more about the masks on Amazon at the following links. tribord easybreath snorkelling mask http://amzn.to/2ihsXX3 October moon snorkelling mask http://amzn.to/2hz2Vl1 Seaview snorkelling mask http://amzn.to/2iIqm7t if you do not want to watch the entire video, I will summarise the pros and cons below: 1. no fogging 2. no hair tangles 3. no water leaks once adjusted 4. no swallowing and choking on water 5. some swimmers with neck and back issues like it but not designed for vigorous swimming 6. durable 7. easier for children to use 8. no constant adjustment 9. easy to drain water by lifting head 10. breath with nose as well as mouth 11. face stays dry 12. increases confidence 13. very comfortable to wear for hours 14. keep face warm 15. can be used with some facial hair 16. no need to bite snorkel 17. no more dry throat from breathing via mouth 18. creates attention 19. can talk underwater a little 20. 180 degrees visibility con 1.If you want to talk to someone else in the water (while treading water,) you have to take the whole snorkel off as opposed to just a mouth piece with a regular snorkel 2.harder to breathe 3.hard to dive - too buoyant 4.can not pinch nose to clear ears 5.hard to rinse out sand 6.snorkel can be lost 7.lack of oxygen illness can make light headed 8.no camera attachment with Tribord but there is one with October moon and Seaview snorkelling masks.

I have watched several reviews of these masks and no one ever talks about removing the snorkel from the mask. Once you click the snorkel on, it is likely to stay on well It is the removing the snorkel that I have issue with. Once you snap the clip on the snorkel to the mask, you then must attempt to remove the snorkel by lifting that little plastic tab. Mine snapped right off. Anyone get it off without snapping the tab.

Hi There...great review and very helpful. One question i have though is how well do you think this product would do for someone who has a small beard or slight stubble? Do you think it would still seal well?

Thanks
Robb's Homemade Life
Robb's Homemade Life - 7 years ago
I don't think it would seal well with stubble. In fact, it sometimes takes several tries to get it to seal well when i am shaved, but once i get it right it is very comfortable for as long as I want to wear it.

it's hardest to breathe because the air inside the mask and the snorkel is full of carbon dioxide and this is bad for all your body especially for your heart and your brain. This mask is ugly and dangerous.

Hello there! I just bought this mask, and I of course tested it immidiatly. One problem I encountered was that the snorkel seal wasn't fast enough to seal, and let in a small amount of water. Normally I wouldn't quite mind, but because of the design I get it in my eyes. Anyone got any tips?
Macco Mac

Mac, check to see if you got the right size. If you fiddle with it and still can't get it to seal I would send itback. it took me a few minutes to get mine to seal right but once I got it to work right I haven't had any more problems.

I just got one but cant remember the brand. Its all black and with a camera mount. Even came with a pair of ear plugs (not the one with intergrated ear plugs) I will attach them to the mask with a bit of fishing line so I don't loose them. Should be fun as I'm intending on using it in 2 weeks. Its been commented that I look like tinky winky with it on and a gimp pmsl

I am verrrry scared of water and can't swim, and my husband wants me to learn how to snorkel. I have recently learned to tread water in the ocean (can't replicate in the pool, however, for some reason??) and he tells me to need to learn to get over my fear of getting my face wet. We recently went to Aruba, and someone was wearing one of these masks. I think maybe I could get over the fear if I have one, and learn to swim. (I am 55 years old.) What do you think?
Low_ Gear
Low_ Gear - 6 years ago
Yikes 1961, the easiest/safest way to enjoy snorkeling is to were PFD or a Lifejacket. Only after you overcome the fear of water you can start unsupported swim session overlooked by your's husband. And yes it's easy to probe first swim in salt water were, if you don't panic, you can not sink.
patrick oconnor
patrick oconnor - 6 years ago
You really do need to take some swim lessons. If somehow the mask were damaged while you were using it you would need to be able to swim safely.  You're ONLY 55, not 105!  It would be a great gift to give to yourself to undergo training to allow yourself to become comfortable in the water.  You will never regret it.  Imagine being delighted at a new freedom.  Find yourself a teacher (just start asking your friends and colleagues; somebody will be able to recommend a teacher.  The local YMCA usually has an adults-only swim class.  You will be safe and taken care of.  DO jump in! :-)
SLOBeachboy
SLOBeachboy - 7 years ago
Yikes 1961 - The reason its harder to keep you head above water in the pool is because things are less buoyant in fresh water than they are in salt water. Once you learn to tread water properly however you should be able to keep your head above water indefinitely in fresh water with very little effort. If not, you are simply not doing it correctly.

Anyway, I have been an avid free-diver for over 40 years but I have found that it is often very difficult to teach adults, particularly if they are taking it up for someone else and not for themselves. Of course, if you are only planning to float on the surface and will do no diving then there is nothing to really learn because the body will easily float in salt water. In fact, I wear a 5-pound weight belt and I have no problem floating on the surface between dives. The real problem is that most reefs are typically anywhere from a few hundred yards to several miles off shore. This means that if something goes wrong you really want to at least be a mediocre swimmer.
As for these new full-face masks, I think they are a great option for beginners, especially if you are only going to do very limited diving, or none at all. In fact, the hardest part to teach new adult divers is how to properly surface and clear their snorkel between dives but the snorkel used with this new masks is self-sealing so you do not have to blow the water out upon resurfacing before you can breath again.
Robb's Homemade Life
Robb's Homemade Life - 7 years ago
Yikes, I learned to swim, although not very well when I was in my thirties. I lived in an apartment complex that had 3 pools. I bought a mask and snorkel and stood waist deep in the pool and got used to putting my face in the water and then held onto the side and began snorkeling around the perimeter until i was comfortable enough to let go. Eventually I learned to float on my back which was a big confidence booster. In time I began swimming without the mask on top every day doing laps. I still swam poorly but it was quite relaxing. I do not enjoy swimming on top of the water in the ocean but do like to snorkel so long as there is not a lot of seaweed and jellyfish. try a little bit at a time at the pool, you won't regret it.

Now I finished watching the video. Great review and addressing a lot of things others don't. Here are some extra comments:
1. The mask does fog up, at least if you use it in colder water. I mainly use it in a lake with water temperatures from (typically) around 14 to 20 °C (57 - 68°F) and then it fogs up just as any other mask. But this is not much of a surprise, you can't change physics. So spitting in it before use is the way to go here as well.
2. The mask has a wide range of quality. I had to replace mine twice before getting one that works as it should. Luckily, Decathlon offers 30 days of time in which you can exchange it for a new one.
3. Even with the best adjustment, a little bit of water does indeed leak in. But it is not dramatic. When you put your head in the water, a little amount (the size of a shot glass) leaks in through the chin valve before it seals up.
However, these are minor things considered the low price it is sold at (here in Germany it is about 30 Euros). I would, however, appreciate if they did a higher quality version at a higher price as an option. And they should include some sort of clamp you can put on your nose to be able to equalize under water. This would kill the advantage of being able to breath through the nose, but would enable to dive down deeper.

Good review but the bottom line is a snorkeling mask system that a design flaw that constricts air flow to the extent that you get "light headed" if you exert yourself to much - this is a deal breaker. I would wait for a redesign rather than take a chance on "HYPERVENTILATING AND PASSING OUT UNDER WATER". The snorkel tube that can easily dislodge is another area that should be addressed in a redesign.

I don't understand all the questions  and comments  about diving. this is a snorkel mask. you wouldn't dive with a snorkel and goggles. Thank you for taking the time to do this review. I love the idea of this snorkel mask but still unsure. I have a small head and find it hard to find  good fitting goggles and the hair pulling sucks also. and I really dislike snorkels so for those reasons I love the idea of these masks.

I bet this was invented by a PADI diver... Wow the stupid things that get marketed to folks today... How do you clear it if you are under water? Oh you can not... Which means you must come up... With a proper sea-cure or other decent mouth piece, you can snorkel for hours with no issues. That part seems like an invented problem.

+yorweth1 "i see you have done very little snorkeling ...if you snorkel deeper you need to equalize more frequently..."

I see you've done very little deep diving. The increase in water pressure with depth is constant: 14.5 PSI per 33 feet. At the surface the air pressure is 14.5 PSI (1 atmosphere), at 33 feet it's 29 PSI (2 ATA), at 66 feet it's 43.5 PSI (3 ATA), etc. -- a constant progression. And because of the way the air in our inner ears is affected by the increased pressure of each level, the deeper you go the LESS frequently you have to equalize. From the surface to 33 feet, the air in your inner ears, lungs, etc. will decrease in volume by 1/2; from 33 feet to 66 feet it only decreases by another 1/4; from 66 feet to 99 feet it only decreases by an 1/8; and so on.
yorweth1
yorweth1 - 7 years ago
oh yes you do ! i see you have done very little snorkeling , you need to equalize every 5 feet you dive down .and if you snorkel deeper you need to equalize more frequently as the pressure gets greater as you go deeper
SeikiBrian
SeikiBrian - 7 years ago
+Dan Equalizing your ears has nothing to do with being on oxygen, nitrox, air, or any other gas; it has to do with water pressure. ANYONE who dives below the surface, whether breathing or breath holding, will experience increasing pressure as they descend, and once you go deeper than 12 - 15 feet, that increasing pressure will press in on the ear drums and cause pain...and damage if the pressure becomes too great. Equalizing the pressure between the outside of the eardrum and the inside of the eardrum prevents that damage.
Dan
Dan - 7 years ago
But you wouldn't need to equalize your ears because you aren't on oxygen.
SeikiBrian
SeikiBrian - 7 years ago
+ famferreYT "can you use this under water?"

Yes, for as long as you can hold your breath; but not very deep, because it's difficult to equalize your ears, since you can't pinch your nose closed. Also, it's really buoyant because of the large volume, so it's harder to dive below the surface than with a low-volume mask. To be honest, I see this type of mask as a fad; I'm sticking to my regular mask and snorkel. (I have two Aqua~Lung masks and a Cressi Supernova dry snorkel.)

Would it work with a full beard? This thing is amazing!

jerry83ism - 8 years ago
No it wouldn't unfortunately. I have got 1 of these masks myself so think this review is good. A full beard allows water ingress to the mask due to the tiny gap formed by the hair strands, so shaving before use is a very good idea. Hope this answers your question.

Hi Robb - just had the Tribord delivered - will use in a few weeks. I am concerned about what you said at the end of your video about tying up the upper part that might come off. How would you tie this? Another vid I watched says that the round bottom part of the mask came out and parts cannot be bought. Anyway I bought the large and x-large sizes and I am thinking I bought them too large ughhhh!!

Hi deb, if you are not in surf or strong waves the snorkel should stay on, it is tighter than I thought, but if I am out in the ocean I would be more comfortable attaching it with a couple of zip ties . The snorkel replacement is available on ebay for about $13 if I remember correctly but I don't know of any other parts sold for it. If you bought these on amazon you may be able to return them if the sizes do not work for you. if you have trouble getting the to fit it takes some time to get mne to fit but once it is working it does not give me any problems . I am used to being able to suck in the mask and see where it s leaking, it takes some extra effort with the tribord. I think you are going to love it once you try it.

Not really, I just tried it today. there is only limited air in the mask. You will find out it's really hard to break while few feet under the water.

Yeah, sometimes you do not want to see something that is very happy to see you when you are swimming.

I see that there is a nose bridge Robb. If it were not for that I would use it. I have a deviated Septom, so the old nose wouldnt be to happy with that. But you did do a great review Friend and thanks for sharing. :)

Hey Robb, might do a swim fin review. think with this mask and some fins would be pretty well.
Robb's Homemade Life
Robb's Homemade Life - 8 years ago
Hey Joe, that is a good idea. I have a very old Corolla that is time to replace, I am looking to get a decent used car very soon and I will be going to the beach with this snorkel a lot and trying some underwater metal detecting. I will definitely be getting some fins. Thanks for watching and commenting. You are one of the only members from Bills group that ever shows up here.
