Zephyr Flexβs unique dual-material construction combines rigidity and flexibility for dependability and comfort. The Zephyr Flex is a corrugated snorkel, with an elliptical purge valve and an anti-shock soft splashguard. The unique construction uses two materials, one rigid to prevent collapse and the other soft to allow flexibility which reduces pressure on the diverβs mouth. Thanks to the elliptical purge valve, the Zephyr Flex creates a seal against incoming water and makes easy work of purging water away. The anatomically-designed silicone mouthpiece reduces jaw fatigue and the soft splashguard top helps to reduce water entry at the surface in choppy conditions. The ergonomic snorkel retainer is easy to operate, even with thick gloves.
- At the very heart of the snorkel is our shaped and protected silicone Elliptical Purge Valve: the shape of the valve guarantees sealing as well as ease of purging
- The anatomically-designed mouthpiece made from medical silicone reduces jaw fatigue
- The joint between the mouthpiece/valve box and the corrugate is a swivelling sealed connection that rotates for a better fit
- The corrugate is made from two materials, one rigid and the other flexible. Corrugates from other manufacturers collapse even on shallow dives. Zephyr Flex does not, thanks to the rigid skeleton that keeps it in shape. The flexibility also provides an important fitting benefit: it lets the mouthpiece set softly into the diverβs mouth without stress, improving comfort and reducing jaw fatigue
- The large snorkel retainer is very easy to use even with thick gloves, thanks to an ergonomically-designed structure
- The D-barrel-shaped tube helps the Zephyr Flex rest more streamlined against the diverβs face
- The splashguard is made from two materials with the same corrugate technology. This rigid, yet flexible construction helps prevent potential injuries in crowded environments such as diving clubs, classes and on boats
Snorkels
A snorkel is a breathing tube that allows a swimmer who is swimming along the surface of the water to breathe normally, even though the swimmer’s face is below the surface, peering down into the water.
Many divers believe that a snorkel is neither an important nor a necessary piece of safety equipment for a diver and they couldn’t be more wrong.
Should any issue arise, such as having to swim a relatively far distance back to a boat or the shore should the navigation of the divers been slightly off, a snorkel allows the diver to swim both comfortably and in a more streamlined position.
Should a diver not have their own snorkel they will have to continuously lift their heads in order to breathe. This will make the swim both uncomfortable and tiring.
Another huge advantage of a snorkel, is being able to jump into the water as soon as you spot dolphins without having to hunt down a snorkel on the dive boat!
Divetek carries a huge range of snorkels in a variety of colours.
