Atomic Frameless Mask

A great looking mask, that fits comfortably and seals well; with low volume, high vision a highly recommended mask. As long as you don’t mind paying the premium price!

This mask was computer designed to give the maximum field of view for the diver. With the use of high quality ‘Ultraclear’ glass for the single piece lens, the divers gets a distortion free, wide angle view! Added with the use of high quality silicon for the double sealed skirt, I found this a great mask that really is light and comfortable to wear. The design also makes it a very low volume mask, and I found clearing it very easy even with only one breath. Atomic have re-designed the standard mask buckle, and although it doesn’t swivel; it is small and secures the strap well, simply press the front of the buckle and the strap will loosen.

The mask is available in black and clear only, so depends on your personal preference. But I must say I like the black version I am currently using; it does shade my eyes a little but as the mask is so small it is not a significant amount. But if you find that uncomfortable try the clear version. Which is much brighter to wear, and in the water you can almost see straight through the skirt itself (almost like it wasn’t there…).

Fantastic field of view, with 85 degrees of view horizontally and 75 degrees vertically; this mask give one of the best viewing angle on the market for a mask of this style. The mask strap and buckles are easy to adjust while wearing, and once locked I have not had any problems with the strap loosening itself. The nose pocket is large and comfortable, being easy to compress when you need to equalize your ears. The soft silicon skirt of the frameless easily molds itself to the shape of your face, and with the double seal makes a good watertight contact. On a typical dive of 45 minutes, I hardly had to clear my mask, and my face stayed dry for almost the entire dive. Which was a very nice experience, I must admit!

Due to the skirts flexibility, the mask folds down to a very compact size and with the stylish box it comes with; makes a very cool and practical addition to your dive bag.
