Maintenance of the valve and dry top
Sand or salt can sometimes get stuck between the valve and the hard part of the snorkel, or at the top of the float. This prevents the valve from lying flat or the float from sliding properly: the seal is no longer guaranteed. Simply rinse the snorkel thoroughly with clean water and ensure that the valve is lying flat again and that the float at the top slides smoothly.
Safety
Snorkelling is an easy and fun activity for all the family! Breathing through a snorkel is more physically demanding than regular swimming. If you feel tired, short of breath or dizzy, remove your mask and snorkel and get out of the water.
The use of this product is not recommended if you have cardiovascular problems (chest infection, angina, asthma, high blood pressure, heart disease, etc.). If in doubt, consult your doctor
What is a valve used for?
If, despite the DRY TOP system, you still have some water in the snorkel, the valve at the bottom of the snorkel makes it easier to expel the water. Thanks to the valve, most of the water is drained from the bottom, which means the user does not have to blow out so hard. This is unlike a conventional snorkel where the water is drained from the top.
How to use the valve
If a little water gets inside the snorkel, just blow gently to empty the snorkel through this valve. If in doubt, do not panic; raise your head out of the water and the snorkel will empty itself instantly through the valve.
High-speed intensive swimming is not recommended as it can move the valve and cause water to enter.
Why choose a DRY TOP snorkel?
Dry Top Technology, borrowed from the “Easybreath” mask, enables you to block any water from entering the snorkel, even if you go completely underwater while snorkelling.
When you dive underwater, a small floater rises and blocks the snorkel channel to prevent water from entering. When you surface, this floater lowers and clears the channel so that you can breathe through the snorkel on the surface.
