Large nosed divers and masks - hgs_notes - 06-04-2004
I'm not ashamed to say that my nose is large and I'm a scuba diver. Now that I have that off my chest, are there others out there like me and what do you use for a mask. Every one I try seems to just get filled by my probiscus and when under the waves it either pushes against my nose or just wont seal between my lip and nose.
Make all the jokes you like, I have a sense of humor, but I would also like some good suggestions besides surgery.

You asked for the jokes!
You know what they say, Big Nose,........... Big Mask.
Have you tried a full face mask?

I have tried full face masks, with coms and everything. It fits fine, but its kinda spendy and a bit much for say snorkling. I'll keep looking.

For the very first time, divers can enjoy peripheral vision with Maresâ revolutionary six-lens mask.
