How to Deal with Dizziness While Snorkeling and Adapt to the Snorkeling Mask
1. Before using this product for the first time, it is best to receive training and guidance from a professional coach. If professional training is not available, please carefully read the operating manual, check the fit of the mask, and ensure it is comfortable and well-fitted. Avoid overtightening to prevent facial pressure, and ensure it is not too loose to avoid water leakage into the mask. Practice snorkeling in a shallow area initially. As you become more accustomed, you can gradually increase your snorkeling time. Beginners are advised to take a break after 10 minutes of snorkeling, while experienced snorkelers should rest after 20 minutes to replenish energy and lung capacity.
2. Without professional training, unfamiliarity with the water environment can lead to nervousness and rapid breathing, quickly depleting the mask's air supply. Insufficient air intake can cause some users to feel breathless or even dizzy. If you experience difficulty breathing or dizziness, immediately remove the mask by releasing the side buckles while wearing a life jacket and breathe. You can also go ashore to remove the mask and breathe.
3. It is recommended to always wear a life jacket while snorkeling and snorkel with at least one other person. The underwater environment can be complex, and individual physical conditions vary. Ensure safety and protection when entering the water.
When there is a significant temperature difference between the surface and the bottom of the water, snorkeling masks are prone to fogging due to the temperature difference causing condensation inside the lens. Here are some suggestions for this situation:
1. Use Anti-fog Agent: Before snorkeling, you can apply an anti-fog agent on the inside of the mask. This agent forms a protective film that reduces the direct condensation of moisture on the lens.
2. Pre-soaking: Before putting on the mask, fully immerse it in water. This equalizes the temperature of the mask with the water, reducing fogging caused by temperature differences. Wear the mask after its temperature has stabilized to effectively reduce fogging.
3. Continuous Use: using the mask underwater for some time, as the temperature stabilizes, the fog usually gradually dissipates. Therefore, after spending some time underwater, the issue of fogging often naturally diminishes.
