TUSA M-1001 Freedom HD Scuba Diving Mask

A great mask for a guy with a big nose bridge! So far I have just used the mask for snorkeling and have not gone deeper than 10 feet, but this has all the hallmarks of a great dive mask too. I normally need to use 2-lens masks to provide more room for my substantial nose bridge, but this mask fit me very well, with only minor discomfort at the nose/forehead junction during the first two uses ... after that, didn't even notice it. I also had zero leaks when I kept the mustache part of my goatee trimmed tight (also shaved a thin line area just below the nose to improve seal), although did get some very minor leaking on the last day of my trip after I hadn't trimmed my goatee or shaved the rest of my face for a few days. No fogging at all after pre-treating with toothpaste before first use, the mask offers great visibility and is a great quality product.

I've used this mask for over 2 years snorkeling almost every day in the ocean for exercise. It is expecially good for someone with a large face or nose. It also fits my girlfriend who has a small face and nose. The mask is confortable and visibility is great. I ordered another exactly like it in case something breaks. You can't go wrong with the Freedom HD mask.

Great mask, more visibility

The Tusa M 1001 Freedom HD is a well made mask, it simply was too large for my face and did not provide the seal I am looking for, I don't like clearing my mask multiple times during dives. The swivel strap attachments make the mask compact even though it is a framed mask. The frame design does add a little weight to the mask. The glass seemed very clear providing good visibility and over all the mask seemed quite functional. If the Tusa M 1001 fits your face and makes a good seal, I can see it providing years of service.

I am new to SCUBA, and purchased a different mask at the shop I was certified through, and it worked okay in the pool, but I wanted something a little better. I purchased this one and used it for the first time during my checkout dives, and I was blown away!This mask is comfortable, lightweight, HUGE field of vision, and relatively fog-free!I did the mask scrubber, and the toothpaste trick on it multiple times, and while I did get some mild fogging (I would chock that up to more user error than anything), I was able to see clearly during two days' worth of dives. My wife was jealous of these and will probably be getting a mask of her own!I purchased the black version, and while I have a somewhat slim face, it doesn't look out of place or weird on me. If this mask ever bites the dust, I'll be ordering an identical replacement!

I bought this for my partner (right in photo) and the Elite for my smaller face (left). The masks look great and are well made, but took a lot of prep to anti-fog them. Tried several rounds of scrubbing with pastey toothpaste, dishwashing liquid… they still fogged up. Eventually my dive guide got a lighter out and fixed it for me (I didn’t trust myself to do it!)

I AM NO EXPERT. I simply love the water and snorkel a lot. So they would have earned 4 stars from me if they didn't push on the bridge between my eyebrows. I can adjust them to fit ok, but if I go more than 30ft deep or don't put them on just perfect they push on my brow. the visiblity IS AWESOME! Perfect for snorkeling. Probably not the best for deep stuff just from pressure pushing on your face hard. The materials are so comfy and worth it! the actual view you can't beat! the nose and being about to pressure release is great. the adjustments work very well. Did I mention the materials are awesome. Really is super comfy. If you have a forward brow, move on. Otherwise awesome mask!

I had previously been diving with a Cressi F1 that was a great travel mask, however, I've been having equalizing issues, and that mask kept fogging up, even with anti fog gel.My divemaster recommend this mask, which is more expensive, but doesn't break the bank. My first dive with it, wow, wow, wow. While it's a larger mask, it's still low profile. It offers more room for my larger nose, and helps with equalizing.I was very, very nervous to use the lighter trick, but super glad I did. I then used toothpaste for multiple scrubs. Since the initial setup, I only use antifog gel once per dive, and have not had any fogging issues.The mask is larger, the case is larger, which does take up space when flying, however, this mask is amazing.
