Hey Guys,

New to the sport. Any comments on the above masks? My nose bridge is a bit 'big' so any feedback would be appreciated.
 
I have tried on the nano and micromask and didn't hit my nose bridge, but I don't know what you mean by "big" so. . .?

There is a website called apneapassion that did some good reviews - search for "xrays cressi nano" and you will find the reviews.

I think you should either order the three and plan to return two, or make your way to a shop. . .keep in mind that things like face curvature play a big role here too, so it's not just as simple as asking on the net. . .
 
I have never tried the mako mini, but the other two are both excellent masks. Just go for whatever fits best and make sure you can try it on first.

You can never know for sure though until you have done a few dives, and it's unlikely that the first mask you get is the best one for you. I consider myself lucky that I found the right one on my second try, but I know others who bought many more before finding the one that fits them best.
 
I too have a 'big' nose bridge, not Adrien Brody big, but big enough. I own the Nano, and it is very comfortable. I can wear it forever without feeling pressure or it beeing uncomfortable.

Only negative thing is that it has quite limited field of view.

If comfort and small vol. is what you want, you should give it a go!

Cheers! [emoji482]
 
Thanks for the feedback guys. I got the Mako Mini but it didn't fit too well so I sold it to a friend of mine. I ended up purchasing a Rob Allen Snapper as I got it for a really good price. So far so good.

Thanks again.
 
Mako mini leaks on me - the skirt doesn't seem to flare enough make a good seal.
