I bought a new mask right before my vacation. It sealed PERFECTLY here. When i got to hawaii, it leaked like a seive. It seems that the skirt got mashed and because it was so soft deformed for good and it will hardly seal at all. I made this post for two reasons. One is to warn people to be carefull of how they pack their mask, and the second is to see if there's any way i could fix it. I had the idea of puttin it in really really hot water to "soften" it back up, but im not sure how to get it back to the right shape after i soften it. Anyone have any experince with this, or is the mask just shot?
