We test this highly anticipated mask, not expecting to be much different than other ultra-low volume masks, but are surprised by the results. Find out why we give it an "Outstanding" and learn where its weak points reside, and if this is the mask for you.

I have this mask in the pirate colourway, It is a phenomenal mask! Much lower volume than my mates viper that I use for spearfishing. I use the C4 for recreational Freediving but it is a truly an amazing performer

Why do you just use the C4 for recreational? And viceversa for the mares? Thanks!

I have a C4 Falcon mask, and I have the silicone joint cut off, probably by the tension. I only wore the mask for a year. It's an extremely comfortable mask, but unfortunately it has that less good point in its favor. As you mention in the 6:42 minute of your video. Best Regards, from Azores - Portugal

was it worn off in the other points that did not break? I bought the mask and I really like it, although the Omer Aqua is pretty great and has a wider field of view., How did you use it?

@@abdessalambouzenoun4487 I would write to C4, to your local distributor, and to the store where you bought it. That part that broke seems an integral part of the mask, so I imagine there is nothing you can really do, maybe you could sew/stitch it. It looks like a design flaw, they should change that part to a regular solid piece of silicone. I find it a nice mask, but the Omer Aqua and the old Omer Zero are not that different. The Omer Aqua has a wider field of view

Had it for a year, strap attachment to mask tore off. Good mask won't last long if you use it almost daily for a year.

Hi! Is it possible to use that mask for scuba diving too?
@LearnFreediving
@LearnFreediving 2 года назад
Sure, it just does not have a field of vision as wide as a regular Scuba mask, but it will work.

Yes but only once and with the best results ever in a mask. These masks are awesome I have taken mine to 55m and only had to equalise it once. Somehow it starts leak after a long session of taking it on and off (line diving with noseclip or teaching) when the face becomes tired. Not sure why that is but the mask is really awesome. For me at least. Like any mask, best to try before you buy if you can.

@@sparcousa both masks are produced from good quality materials. But falcon's silicone on the nose pocket seems to be the most thin and gentle I ever met in other masks. I have really large head and both wide and "tall" face. Falcon also seems to be the tiniest mask I ever met and it is really strange for me that it fits my face perfectly. No leaks at all, no discomfort. Mask has ultimately low inner volume. My deepest dive overall and both with this mask particularly was 40 meters. Through that dive I had equalized the mask single time at about 17-18 meters, than I pinched my nose, took mouthfill and ran down to stopper. Felt no any sign of squeezing my face down to the bottom. The only downside (really significant) of the falcon is super low angle of view, especially at the bottom side of the lenses. So, I use this mask only for freediving training on the rope and for deep dives. Bought the Noah for recreational dives. But this mask failed for me, and, unfortunately, I discovered this fact only in the water and not in the shop. On dry land mask sucks perfectly to my face. I close my soft palate and even with the mask strap hanging out loose below the mask, it would be hard to pull the mask out of my face. But in the water it started leak immediately. Somewhere near my eye socket. Then one then the other. Having suffered enough with all sorts of adjustments, I've finally found the position when it doesn't leak, but only if I don't pinch my nose. My hands free eq is only in work in progress. So, I need to pinch the nose. And water starts to leak. So... Need to sell the Noah. Seems to be great mask. But just not for my face. Have bought the Beuchat Maxlux S few hours ago. Gonna test it tomorrow.

I bought it, didn’t get to use it yet, but unfortunately it only came with a paper box. Not the c3 carbon mask box shown. Buying the additional $12 case becomes even more expensive when you add shipping charges.
