Equalizers are the name for dive masks made by Ocean Master. Each model embodies world-recognized quality, a great fit and unique features
such as a patented purge valve and a back adjustment buckle. This
year Ocean Master debuts yet another mask in the Equalizer series:
the Commando (available 2009). It incredibly allows a viewing angle of more than
180° via front-to-side lenses (the first in history)—and
can be used by divers who need prescription lenses. The Commando
is just one more clear signal that we're serious about what we
do (building quality gear). Commandos are the newest edition
to the fine purge mask line-up, called Equalizers. Equalizers
are available in a wide assortment of colors and styles. The Primero
(pronounced pree-meh-row) offers magnificent viewing via wider
and taller front lens. The 2008 Primero ($85) fits nearly all face shapes and sizes and has a soft silicone mask skirt.
Every mask Ocean Master is low volume--air space in the mask is minimal resulting in the mask sitting closer to your face.
Ocean Master was the first manufacturer to incorporate a soft
nose pocket on a purge mask, making the mask especially convenient
for divers. Purge masks allow you to expel the water from your
mask by exhaling through a one-way valve. With an Equalizer, the
nose pocket is exposed to allow you to equalize your ears during
a dive. What a simple way! No more mask displacement (lifting
your mask to clear a flooded mask), although we recommend that
you learn the method per your dive instructor. We've also innovated
the way divers adjust the mask to their head. The Q-Strap is a
one-step, mask-on adjustment buckle located on the back of your
head for easy reach. With an Equalizer, you're assured that
you're getting a reliable purge system, one that meets strict
quality control standards and made of the highest quality parts.
Go into your nearest Ocean Master retailer and compare the quality.
You'll notice metal parts are used for critical areas of the mask.
Some of
the masks offer optical lens replaceability--split-windowed types
such as the Equalizer Z4. Mask frames differ in classic, traditional
and modern styling to help you get just the look that you want.
Whichever style you choose,
be assured your masks exemplify the attention to detail you simply
won't find anywhere else. |
