In general, a wetsuit can last for many years if you take care of it, including wearing with being careful, washing with the right way, storing in the suitable place, and so on.

Mask Snorkel – What is the spearfishing mask?
Firstly, we also can use diving mask for spearfishing, but this would be not so convenient as the view is not so enough, therefore, the spearfishing mask is worked out. it is with so wide view, but it is a little bit heavy as the tempered glass is so big.
Mask Snorkel – What is a snorkeling mask or full-face mask
A snorkeling mask or full-face mask is consisted of mask and snorkel. The snorkel is foldable and anti-watering. It usually used for swimming and snorkeling to let us enjoy the underwater view without worrying about watering our eyes and breathing, because the mask covers our face and provide the air by snorkel.
Mask Snorkel – how to wear a mask better
Wearing mask better can let us enjoy diving well, so we should take care when using a mask.
1. A tight strap doesn’t mean you’ll get a tight seal. Some divers attempt tightening the strap on the mask in an effort to get it to seal properly to their faces. But this is ineffective and will only result in damage caused to the skirt of your mask. Instead, focus on getting a high-end quality mask made of the best materials to get the best seal and maintain that seal throughout your dive.
2. The correct size mask for your face is also very important. If the size is not suitable for your face, it will let the silicone of mask can not cover your face very well so that the water would enter your eyes.
