The snorkel is used to breath at the surface without lifting your face out of the water You should consider some of the available features when selecting your Snorkel.
The mouthpiece should rest easily in your mouth without having to bite it, this will help prevent jaw fatigue. The lower adjustable part of the snorkel should be turned until the mouthpiece fits comfortably. Most modern snorkels come with a purge valve. A snorkel with a purge valve at the bottom is much easier to clear if flooded. Select a snorkel that has a tube with a large opening making it easier to breath. To keep water from coming in from the top of the snorkel you may want to choose a dry snorkel. These will not let water in even when diving beneath the surface. There are even snorkels you can fold up and put in a pocket of your BCD. Remember to breathe slowly so not to choke on water droplets resting in the bowl of the snorkel.
Snorkeling
Cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) is a lifesaving technique useful in many emergencies, including heart attack or near drowning, in which someone s breathing or heartbeat has stopped. In 2010, the American Heart Association updated its guidelines to recommend that everyone — untrained bystanders and medical personnel alike — begin CPR with chest compressions.
It s far better to do something than to do nothing at all if you re fearful that your knowledge or abilities aren t 100 percent complete. Remember, the difference between your doing something and doing nothing could be someone s life.
