I

I've bought 2 of these over the past couple of weeks one for me and one for hubby. Both are extremely comfortable to use and very easy to breath through. Very happy with purchase and the colours are great too.

This was my second purchase of a Platina II Hyperdry

This was my second purchase of a Platina II Hyperdry. My friend tried my own and found it so much more comfortable than her snorkel that I decided to buy her one as a thank you gift for having me to stay with her in her new Cretan home. So not only did I recommend it to a friend but I bought one for a friend. Thank you.

Very comfortable to use

Very comfortable to use, easy to purge. Good design and quality materials. Nice clip arrangement to attach to mask strap. I can’t imagine how one could improve on this design. Also replacement mouthpiece and clip available should they get damaged or broken. I am very happy with this purchase, would have no hesitation in recommending this snorkel.

A great snorkel for a great price. Extremely easy to clear and breathe from. Remains dry/clear in most situations on the surface. Would highly recommend!

I have owned several snorkels and this is the first...

I have owned several snorkels and this is the first one that I am completely satisfied with. It is light-weight, low-profile, easy to breathe, aquadynamically designed, impressively resistent to flooding, easy to purge, it looks cool and it has a comfortable mouthpiece. It's worth noting that this is not a "truly dry" snorkel. That is, it doesn't have any sort of mechanism that seals the bore when you submerge. I have owned those types of snorkels and didn't really like them as they had a tendency to close up at inopportune times, and occassionally got stuck. Although the Tusa is not "truly dry", it is very intelligently engineered and reduces flooding by, I would say, about 75% compared to a standard snorkel. When it does flood (which is not often) it is very easy to clear. I use a snorkel when I freedive, but I also use one when I scuba dive and this one does a great job of staying out of the way, not creating much drag, AND it has a clip (plus it's foldable) so you can easily remove it from your mask and store it in your BC if you felt so inclined. Again, I have had several snorkels (none of which were cheap) and this is the only one I've been completely happy with and the only one I would replace with an identical one should it end up broken or lost.

Great snorkel

Great snorkel, purge valve works well, flexy tube means it drops out of the way easily, and the clip is easy to use. Well worth the money.

Again this was the first snorkel I bought in conjunction with the Tusa Splendive IV mask, but well worth spending a bit extra. Good purge valve on it, don't have to puff very hard to clear it at all. Compliments the Tusa mask too. Very good quality again compared to other cheap rubbish I've seen others using.

Great snorkel

Great snorkel. Purge valve works well and comfortable to wear on dives and in-use on the surface while finning out to the dive sites. Doesn't seem to interfere with the fit of my mask like my previous snorkel did!
