Objective: 
  • Be able to completely remove your mask from your head
  • Orient the mask to your face (with your eyes closed)
  • Replace the mask on your face
  • Clear the Mask
Value: 

Let's say your buddy sees a huge shark and in her excitement to get past you to take a picture kicks your mask clean off your face... you can easily reaquire and replace your mask without skipping a beat.

Steps to Perform: 
  1. Relax
  2. Pull your mask firmly away from your face
  3. Breath out your nose
  4. Pull it up and off your head
  5. Feel for the nose pocket with your Right hand (orient it down) & feel for the snorkel with your left hand (orient it left)
  6. Look up
  7. Pull the Mask strap over the back of your head and pull the mask forward down over your face
  8. Seat the mask on your face
  9. Clear your mask normally

NOTE: If you're looking up and breathing out your nose, your mask will most likely clear partially or completely while you replace it on your head.
