FINISMen's Finis Swimmer's - Adult & Junior Swimmer s Snorkel, Yellow, Adult One Size UK

This is the 4th swim snorkel that I've purchased over the past few years (generally get 1 year out of them). For context, I swim 4+ days per week for 1.6kms per day. Its the 2nd Finnis snorkel.Positives - Comfortable for long sessions either in the sea or pool (30+ mins). Fit is pretty good and no issues with water blow out when surfacing after turn (which is an issue for other makes/models).Negative - Contrary to product pitch, the snorkel has a habit of rotating if you are too aggressive on a turn, with the pipe pressing up against your face, resulting in you having to stop to adjust, but its something that can be worked around and isn't something that happens if you are keeping a steady routine. Build Quality - It seem's to be worse that my previous one from 2 years ago. The clips holding the head strap in place are quite flimsy , both have come loose and now one has broken off. It might be a one off , but having seen a couple of reviews highlight the same issue .......... !

This is a game changer! Perfect for those who want to get the lengths in. After not swimming for awhile one of the hardest parts to retrain is the breathing between strokes and this can lead to muscle fatigue due to lack of oxygen. Before this I was doing 50-100m and then struggling to regain my breathing/heart rate and then the increased muscle/cardio fatigue would increasingly effect the rest of my swim. Using this I have completed 2 sessions of 1Km each in roughly 30-40mins. Takes the holding the breath element away allowing you to power through the laps for a good workout. I will be buying a nose clip as without the water does go up your nose and the chlorine does tend to irritate the sinuses. Either routinely breathing out through the nose or a nose clip will prevent this. The rubber pad on the forehead is a bit hard and could have a bit of padding but no discomfort is noticed when swimming. I positioned mine how I wanted it to sit and then marked it above and below with permanent marker so I don't have to set up each time.

I like it! Really helps me swim as I have a sore neck and this allows me to keep a steady pace up without having to move my neck too much which would usually happen as I breath. Haven't had any problems with fitting it or using it.

The snorkel is fantastic. A real game changer for me because I have a medical condition that makes it difficult for me to swim and breathe with my head down in the water. This snorkel solved my problem 100%. However, you need to be aware that not all public swimming pools will allow you to use it so check before you buy.

I swim against a current in an indoor pool (Endless Pools Fastlane machine) and have been using a normal mask and side snorkel, this was getting annoying because I kept hitting the snorkel with my hand when doing front crawl (not the best of swimmers) and also the current hitting it knocked me off course meaning I was constantly correcting also if I faced straight downwards the current would cause splashback in the snorkel so I'd often be blowing the mouthpiece clear. With my arthritis these problems were giving me a constantly sore neck.This swimmers front snorkel has fixed all those problems. I swim straight without constantly course correcting. I can face directly downwards so I don't stress my neck, and I don't hit the snorkel when swimming. Bonus, it fits even when wearing a dive mask (came with original snorkel) so no need for uncomfortable goggles or nose clip. I admit I was concerned there was no float valve to prevent water coming down the tube if submerged, but as I only surface swim that hasn't been an issue, and in fact I can breathe more easily with apparently more air coming down the tube. The tube is longer than a normal snorkel which is probably why I don't have to hold my head even slightly up. The purge valve looks more sophisticated than on a standard snorkel and I don't know if it just drains by itself or if I've just never had any water come down the tube - either way I haven't had to waste breath blowing it clear.It does seem very expensive for what it is, but it does what I want it to do, and after 6 weeks of swimming 5 or 6 times a week I'm still very pleased with it.

Brought these for swimming and used them yesterday for the first time, and they're really good and well made, the type of product that would likely last earn my loyalty, and already has my respect to date.Recommend. AS LONG AS THEY DON'T HIKE THE PRICE EH. UP ABOUT £10. ALREADY. WILL SHOP ELSEWHERE NEXT TIME.

I never learnt to swim crawl and getting this was a godsend. I can’t speak highly enough about how this product helped me learn to swim. I now can swim without the product but without this device I doubt I would have learnt so quickly.

From reading reviews I thought it might take me a while to find a comfortable swim snorkel and get used to using one.However I found this great. Really comfortable and easy to use.It's a great length, no water has come in at all, but it doesn't feel heavy or in my way at all.The mouthpiece seems about the right size and feels perfectly comfortable in my mouth for 45 minutes or more that I swim. I seem to be able to breathe plenty of air in easily through the tube size.The head rest, I've not had any problems with it being fairly hard, it is well shaped and feels fine over my swim cap, which I guess adds a thin extra layer of silicone for it to sit on. It stays in place perfectly comfortably. I found the head strap easy to make tighter but really hard to loosen, but got there in the end.Some swim snorkels have twist mechanisms to move the mouthpiece away from your mouth, but I find I can push it to one side perfectly easily if I need to drink or talk.
