Removing pipe from mask?

Outstanding... one top technical & innovative product and one right up there DIY solution... I agree with you
lawstraljan16 where else can you get information of this quality?
I do like the power-breather that Gab linked to... for someone who keeps their snorkel in all the time it seems a good idea?

Can't beat a bit of DIY though and with a double hose silicone mouthpiece upgrade anything is possible?

Nice mouthpiece artiz, you could do somwthing... I wonder if that tubing isn't going to collapse in the depth?

I would expect not, they're designed for an old style twin pipe demand valve so more than up to the task (expensive though @ $49-£30 + post). I reckon the biggest issue would be clearing both tubes at the same time... and why the tubing in Ron's excellent version is a thinner diameter? Some kind of valve on top of your head might help. Perhaps a thicker style tubing with a smaller diameter would be more appropriate though... cheaper too? It also appears that it may even be easier (more convenient) for spitting out?

My vintage double hose mouthpiece arrived today... quite a bit too big unfortunately!
My upgrade attempt for Ron's loop snorkel is here... much thanks for pointing me in the right direction Apneaddict
