Cressi Samoa 2024 ADVANCED ANTI-FOG SYSTEM + TEXTILE STRAP MASK
Samoa is a snorkeling mask that features the ultimate
Cressi Fog Stop System.
A system of membranes channels the air towards
the lower part of the mask, away from the glasses.
A second membrane seals the eye socket, so that
warm air coming from exhalation does not get
on contact with the glass at all. This dramatically
limits the fogging of the mask. Another feature
of our fog stop system is the heat exchanging
structure on the top of the masks silicone blades
facilitate heat exchange between the mask ant
the water, balancing the temperature between the
two in a shorter time. This also helps to reduce
fogging. Samoa is a mask thought for snorkeling. It
features an elastic band, making it an easy to
use mask, that will be appreciated by beginners,
people with long hair. It can be used for scuba
diving too, but keep in mind that an elastic strap
is not as firm as a silicon one. The lenses are not
treated chemically and it should be remembered
that when the mask is new, as is the case with
all masks, we advise you to clean them well with
a strong soap (toothpaste, dishwashing liquid
soap, degreaser) . Also use perform the normal
antifogging procedure before using the mask, with
an anti-fog spray or saliva on the dry glass.
INNER MEMBRANES
A patented membrane surrounding the inner nose
pocket (1) and both the inner eyes pockets (2) which
acts as a barrier and traps any moisture escaping from
the diver’s nose involuntarily when breathing through
the mouth. The result is that not only is the moisture
channeled away from the lenses, thus avoiding the
fogging up of them, but it also reduces the need to
compensate for pressure.
To further improve the anti-fog effect, Cressi suggests,
the first times that the dive mask is used, to spray
some anti-fog solution or to apply some saliva on the
inside of the lenses and then to rinse them with water.
HEAT EXCHANGER
The external part of the skirt features a cooling
system composed of two small heat exchangers
that act as radiators (3). Thanks to this system, the
temperature inside mask drops, coming closer to the
external temperature and the droplets of humidity are
trapped before the air reaches the lenses, preventing
them from fogging up.
