Not the same as before

I bought these to replace my last finis tube which finally broke after 4 years. This one arrived with the black rubber on the headgear mount peeling off. So disappointed. Probably should have read more recent reviews. For me there is no more Finis

Pros
  • Excellent design
Cons
  • Requires socket

The price is competitive but the quality is not. button .

The price is competitive but the quality is not. The button to adjust and hold the strap broke after 1 use. This tube will not be a cheap pool toy. If you buy this style, train and expect quality that will serve you well for years to come. It's not like this.

Pros
  • Dope 🔥
Cons
  • Definitely a bad product

MUST BUY!: Sports

I use this at the YMCA pool. Great for freestyle. This greatly improved my swimming as I don't have to worry about rotating my breath. Swimming has become very relaxing and now I can swim for miles without stopping. Good product. You must practice handling such a tube; Just exhale through your nose, otherwise water can sometimes come out of your nose (some people have suggested using a nose clip). I feel more comfortable without a nose clip. Exhale easily through your nose.

Pros
  • Certified
Cons
  • Minor issues

Excellent diving and snorkeling snorkel

I have been using Finis snorkels for many years and have been very happy with their durability and ease of use. This is the first one I have without a diaphragm. I did it unintentionally as I get insane with age but it turned out to be an accidental mistake. This works just as well as with aperture. I think, although I haven't tested my theory, it works best with a reduced swim time. But who knows. I only swim about a mile a day with swim lines attached to the side of my pool. For those who use

Pros
  • Very good price
Cons
  • Poorly thought out

Ideal for fitness and physical therapy Swimming

Just what I needed to start swimming for fitness and physical therapy. I had foot surgery about 5 1/2 months ago and am finally able to walk unaided. This helped me visit the pool. I liked it so much that I signed up for a sprint triathlon. I'm not a very good swimmer so this has helped me learn how to throw properly and increase my strength and endurance. I like being able to just stick my head in the water and just feel like I'm all alone. I'm so glad I saw someone at the pool who had this…

Pros
  • Price
Cons
  • Protection

Great Snorkel Snorkel

When I entered college this year and got on the swim team, our college team coach suggested we buy snorkels. Since it was my first time picking up the phone, I decided to trust my coach and I haven't regretted it at all. I've been using it actively for more than 2 months and I've owned it for about half a year, it still has no scratches and I'm completely satisfied with it. It usually stays in place while not hurting the forehead. It is excellent for strength development for both experienced…

Pros
  • High Test Scores for Grip and Durability
Cons
  • Negative Impression

Work as needed unless I get a little headache

I am just learning to swim using the Full Dive training method which does not add breathing to the freestyle until you have mastered all the other methods. I made this practice without getting up to breathe as it is a practice method. It doesn't bother me as much once I get used to it, but I found the pressure on the front of my head wasn't very comfortable. They seem designed for a wider forehead (probably for men. C'mon, do more stuff for women!) As with my glasses, the difference as I went…

Pros
  • Quality construction
Cons
  • Wrinkled

Nothing for people with small heads

This pipe didn't fit me at all. The headpiece is very wide from side to side. It's also very stiff and doesn't flex easily around the head (I mean the front of the headpiece, not the band that goes around the back). Just a note: I wear a small women's bike helmet. Because the piece is so stiff, the pressure wasn't evenly distributed across my forehead because the sides didn't conform to my head, instead all the force was directed straight to the center of my forehead. I swim for an hour each…

Pros
  • Delivery was very fast
Cons
  • Volume
