I love the frameless construction – and the fact that the skirt geometry is designed to help reduce those awful facial pressure points. If you’ve never dived and worn a mask before, you’ll soon know what facial pressure points during long stints can do!
This is reportedly a premium surgical grade silicone mask, which, along with the advanced skirt geometry, makes the Apeks VX1 all the more impressive. The field of vision is nice and broad, and the UV cut is likely to support anyone who has trouble with colour correction and vision in the deep. The whole point here is that this mask should provide clarity with no distortion, and for the most part, it does really well.
Easy adjustment makes it nice and easy to take on and off. The neoprene strap and silicone skirt might not appeal to everyone, but the Apeks VX1 really does its best to provide maximum comfort, clarity and endurance. Oh, and the neoprene strap is a life saver for those of us with long hair!
