Re: Spearfishing Mask.

Aloha Mr. X,

I am looking to purchase a new mask for Spear Fishing, 5 to 20 meters. I believe in another thread you also mentioned the Aqualung Micromask.

Between the Omer Alien and the Micromask (hope this hasn't been beaten to death) which would recommend as a better Spear Fishing mask (I understand that fit and comfort is the most important)? Also does the compressibility of the Alien allow one to save more precious air? Better field of view??? Any durability issues it can get rough on some reefs.

Are there any online stores that will except returns if the fitment is poor. Here in O`ahu no store carry both masks and is very hard to compare. Both seal on my face it is just that the Alien has a softer skirt. In this thread members have commented that facial movements can cause the Micromask to leak; and the Alien fogs up constantly don’t most masks fog? Sorry for the 101 questions but have searched the site and am just a newbie, I can use the help and the advice, thank you.

I just joined and appreciate any advice you, or anyone else have for a novice. Hope this is an ok place to ask for this help, new to forum edict.

Cheers!
