@seewaage you can see what I mean by looking at this guy's video by looking for the clip Clearing the snorkel (in two different ways)

I think a better way to clear the snorkel is when you're approaching the surface from a dive you make sure your head is tilted back and blow a bubble in the snorkel. It only takes a light breath. Then, when your face reaches the surface, your first breath is in. It is 100x easier than the blow out method. And a lot more relaxing too.

@djclimber Its about the ears, not the snorkel, watch it again

Stewie Griffin back then people didn't make high quality cameras because people didn't use youtube

that's a stupid way to clear your snorkel. Displacement is a lot easier and doesn't make you splash water everywhere. Of course it's easy to clear your mask OUTSIDE of water!

No thats actually a good thing. Usually your gonna want to be on the top anyway unless you dive down, and then its not hard at all to sink.

The 'dry snorkel' (As I assume your talking about instead of a plugged snorkel which wouldn't allow you to breathe ;-) has some serious disadvantages, and I would not recommend it for novice snorkelers, or anyone snorkeling in the ocean. A snorkel with baffling at the top and a purge valvue at the bottom is quite easy to purge. (I have seen a good number of people panic because of the mechanics of a dry snorkel, including semi-experienced divers)
