Viper Mask
£40.00 RRP £47.00 In Stock
Please note: This item cannot be shipped outside the European Union - learn moreThe Mares Viper Mask is an ultra low volume mask designed and tested by freedivers. Tested by some of the best athletes in the industry the Viper mask is perfect for demanding freedivers and spearfishermen.
High Performance
The skirt has been carefully molded to fit more face shapes while keeping a minimal internal volume. The single skirt design provides ample seal and holds the masks position on your face better than many other masks.
Bringing the lenses as close to the eye as possible the Viper gives you a huge Field Of Vision while reducing internal volume too.
Hydrodynamic
The skirt of the mask has been made to be as hydrodynamic as possible with a matt finish on the outside and a soft touch inner skirt, all with an anti-reflective treatment. The new silicone also deters condensation to reduce fogging.
Essentials Extras
Remember to purchase SeaBuff to pre-treat your new mask lenses to reduce the chance of fogging.
It can be purchased individually or as part of the New Mask Package for all the essentials you need at even better value.
If you have longer hair and want to avoid it becoming tangled in the mask strap or just want the strap to be more comfortable remember to purchase a Strap Wrapper.

| Frame ? Masks are available with either an external (Frame) or internal (Frameless) which gives the mask it's structural strength.
Somes advantages of an external frame design are replacement of parts as the mask can usually be dismantled into its component parts and some manufacturers offer off the shelf corrective lenses which can be retro fitted.
The advantages of a frameless design are that the mask is usually of a lower profile (less internal volume) which masks clearing easier, the skirt wraps around the internal frame providing a more flexible seamless finish and the overall weight of the mask is reduced.Close | Frameless |
| Lens Coating ? Some mask lenses are specially coated to improve colour / light characters. Most coatings work by reducing the amount of light that is reflected as it passes through the glass, reducing glare and reflections and improving brightness within the mask.Close | No |
| Lens Type ? The main lenses are available in two different configurations, Single and Twin.
Single lens masks provide a more open vision as the frame between the centre of the eyes is removed, this also typically results in a lower profile mask.
Twin lens masks can allow for individual corrective lenses to be retro fitted, completely replacing the original lenses.Close | Twin |
| Low Profile ? A low profile mask offers the smallest internal volume possible, making clearing easier.Close | Yes |
| Panorama Lenses ? Side lenses are small glass panels which provide better peripheral vision and also increase the amount of light that is able to enter the mask.
The lenses can either be fitted directly to the main lenses to offer a seamless field of view or as separate lenses built into the side of the mask frame.Close | No |
| Prescription Lenses ? Some masks allow off the shelf perscription lenses to be retro fitted to the mask, completely replacing the original lenses.Close | No |
| Skirt Material ? The skirt is the seal around your face that stops the water from getting in. Cheaper masks will just have a Thermoplastic that will do the job but harden over time and discolour if left in the sun. Most are Silicone that are soft, create an effective seal and don't discolour quickly. The highest-grade silicone is Hypoallergenic that is purer with few impurities for a crystal-clear skirt that is soft and effective.Close | Silicone |

This mask is the most comfortable and best seal I have ever tried on, but it broke after only about 50 dives... The hard plastic connector on the strap is fixed to a silicone hole on the mask skirt, and the hard plastic pin of the strap tore right through the silicone. Maybe it was my fault, maybe I wear my mask too tight or maybe I took it off a bit too energetically (this is when it broke), but I was expecting a more thought trough design of Mares. Very disappointing, especially as the mask is otherwise so good!
