Brand: Atomic

Located in: Essential Equipment, Snorkels

The SV2 includes a Scupper Valve lower section with a sleek semi-dry top. The SV2 semi-dry top employs horizontal vents engineered to diffuse splashed water that would normally freely enter the snorkel top. The small gaps between the vanes of the vent restrict water speed and droplet size and permit most of the splashed water to exit the special vents without entering the breathing tube. The end result is less water in your snorkel. The SV2 is perfect for rough or choppy water conditions.

Comments about Atomic Atomic SV2 Semi-Dry Snorkel:

I also found the scupper not so effective. It clears, but sometimes requires 2-3 blows. I started putting a hand over the intake. Also not so sure how the slide adjustment on the side is suppossed to work! Always slipped to full out position.

Comfortable and effective, but not to justify the price.

Comments about Atomic Atomic SV2 Semi-Dry Snorkel:

Not overly impressed with the scupper valve, seemed just as prone to getting water as other snorkels I have used. I do like the quick release and that it will slide up and down easily, the mouthpiece rotates easily. Bit pricey given all of the above.

Comments about Atomic Atomic SV2 Semi-Dry Snorkel:

Just back from Belize where this snorkel worked very well in rough water at the beginning & end of 8 dives. Allowed me to concentrate on getting back in the boats in whitecap seas without inhaling water.
