The Paradisia uses chamois leather, you can try that. Otherwise felt is just as good, the FIT noseclip uses felt.

I personally use felt to replace my Paradisia pads. There are more colour options to felt.
 
thanks for the advice... ill defiantly haff to try felt... it seems like a reasonable material for the pads... I was using a cheap rubbre kindof stuff with a sticky back, and it just didnt do the trick... and its too uncomfortable for no pads:head...
thanks for the info
PEACE!!!

What are freediving noseclips? FIT? Yes. FIT is the company set up by Martin Stepanek after he left PFI.

The FIT noseclip is hard to open and close, unlike the Paradisia. It's partly because of the ratchet design and because the moving end is very closely fitted to the rod, so it has less space to move around. It's also heavier than the Paradisia. However, the FIT clip comes with felt, which I feel is more comfortable. It also closes very well on my nose. Although I would go for the Paradisia over the FIT for a variety of reasons, the FIT clip is half decent, definately worth buying. They're both around the same price anyway.
 
May i recommend the new INCREDIBLE noseclip from perfrormancefreediving.com They have not listed it yet but if you contact them you can get one.Let me tell you smaller than a paradisa.Light as a feather and they are going to have an assortment of colors.I bought mine when I was in Kona,Hawaii for their advanced class,spent the whole week using it for training doing dynamic and cw with monofin and fluid goggles.These folks know how to do it!!! good luck. p.s. it can be good for cleaning out you fridge when you get home from travels.
