STORY TIME: “This was the best experience we have had with snorkels…”

by Mihai Pinzariu on August 21, 2020

Beard woes and re-energising our love of the ocean.
We are a family of 6 that emigrated to Australia back in 2007 and with so many
great beaches in Australia we always take the time out at least once a year to
get to one of our local snorkelling spots.

This Boxing day we picked Mettam’s Pool just off North beach in Western
Australia and this trip was more exciting than usual as we had just replaced our
traditional Snorkels with Ninja Shark Full face gear.

Having seen other people wear them last year, I wanted to surprise the kids for
Christmas, so I did some research and make sure that we purchased the best
quality, plus I have a long beard and a large face, so was a bit unsure if the
gear would even work for me but was tired of the constant fogging and
mouth pain on what was normally a 30-40 minute snorkel. We eventually found
Ninja Shark and found it great that I was able to chat to the team on their
website, I was happy.

We picked the ‘Air’ in large for the older boys (14 & 16), and the ’Air’ in Small
for the younger ones (9 & 12) all of which fitted and worked perfectly. I decided
that I wanted the latest and greatest for myself and my wife, as she has always
hated snorkelling and would seldom stay out in the water for more than 5 minutes.

So, we went with the Equaliser, which my wife was so glad about, as
she tried them all on, and the ‘Equaliser’ was by far the easiest to breathe
through. I, unfortunately, was not happy as it was a real struggle to get my face
in comfortably, and with my long beard even with the tightness, water was still getting in.

After a bit of negotiating with my eldest child, we swapped as I found the ‘Air’
Large so much of a better fit, and more of my beard fitted in, but I was still
finding that my beard was still poking through the bottom and sides.

Now, I had already made the decision to shave my beard based on the initial
feedback from the Ninja Shark team, so I proceeded to shorten my beard, until
I had a tight seal, which meant taking some off the bottom and the sides but
managing to keep the beard!

We arrived at Mettam’s pool early, and there were already a fair few people there already, the weather was just right, not to hot, or too bright, just a little bit of wind, which picked up as the morning went on.

The excitement was in the air, and all four of the kids donned on their gear and couldn’t wait to get in the water. Mettam’s is a great spot for younger swimmers, as there is a large outer reef that protects and keeps the waves at bay, and the inner waters contain

plenty to see. The increased visibility from the full face gear was so noticeable, especially with the ‘Air’ with its curved lens. The older boys went off on their separate ways, the younger boy stayed with mum in the shallows, and my daughter and I went out in search of the known good spots.

As always, we regularly met up when someone signaled a great find, and on this day we weren’t disappointed, seeing many schools of large fish, an octopus, some sea urchins, a big fat sea cucumber and much much more. One of the interesting things we found with the gear, was that we talked to each other a lot more, which was great as we didn’t even have to take off our gear.

Overall a great morning at the beach, and I have to say the gear was amazing, performing much better than any of us expected, and for the first time, all of us stayed in the water for a good 50 minutes, with none of us having to take our gear off once.

My only regret is that we didn’t buy the bundles as half of us didn’t have flippers and the dry bags would come in so handy to protect the gear and keep the sand out. Hands down this were the best experience we have had with snorkels, and cant wait to use our Ninja Sharks to explore more of our beautiful countries great Oceans.

“The mask include GOPRO mounts, so you can easily film and photograph underwater scenery! I highly recommend especially to people who have a fear of snorkeling! This mask is really easy to use and is safe!” said @lud.around. “I can’t wait for my next trip with my new mask!”

What customers are saying about us…

“Awesome set.

Loved the complete set. I even used the waterproof phone pouch to take photos and videos underwater. It made my Fiji experience so much better than using the free snorkel set that hurt your face after 2hours and leaving a sun/mask mark. The ninja leaves no marks and gives great vision under water in comparison. It did take some getting used to but it definitely paid off! Only frustration is that the tightening straps are quite basic; they should be much simpler to loosen and tighten both in and out of water.” – Jock

Thank you for this information!

I’ve heard amazing things about ninja shark. I would love to get my young family into snorkeling. This differently looks like the best way to do it. 💕

by Danielle Jamieson on November 20, 2020

Can’t wait to use one of these down at my local beach. I somehow failed with the traditional ones 😅 but this looks idiot proof so even I can use it

by Xandra Williams on November 16, 2020

My nephew has one and he LOVES it. I am going to try to win some and then buy a couple of extra sets for me and the husband!

Would love to win the competition & snorkel at this awesome beach!

The Ninja Shark Snorkel mask is awesome!

We bought these snorkel masks as we were going on a tropical holiday which included snorkelling tours and we both hated breathing through traditional plastic snorkels shoved in our mouths. My partner in particular did not want to snorkel because of this. These snorkel masks are FANTASTIC and were GAME CHANGERS. We did several lots of snorkelling on our holiday and every time, we were able to lie in the water, breathe normally and focus on looking underwater without worrying about breathing. Even if you dive underwater with these masks, the valve blocks water from coming into your snorkel mask. I bought the premium Equaliser Pro with the ability to pinch your nose if diving and my partner bought the basic model. Both are fantastic products - comfortable, easy to wear and highly recommended. You need to fit it tightly but it's really comfortable in the water and doesn't leak. Even when you come up you don't need to take it off, just keep breathing normally. I loved snorkelling with this product and even my anti-snorkelling partner really enjoyed it and felt this mask was a game changer.

Bloody love this!

Never snorkelled in my life. Petrified of putting my head under water. But now my neck is bad - if I don't alter the way I swim - then no more swimming for me. This has opened 'a whole new world' - (haha -that songs stuck in your head now) - to me. I'm just using my ninja gear in my gym outdoor pool atm. My legs are getting so strong - and my lungs too - as I'm doing some great breathing. I have huge surgery coming up soon - and i believe this is allowing me to get to a great level of fitness - in preparation. Honestly - i can't go on enough about this product enough. My friend bought a cheaper version. She's given it away already... say no more 🤿🤿🤿

Great design

This is the best snorkel mask I’ve ever had. Very comfortable on face, easy to breathe. I am not a good swimmer, it makes me feel safe and enjoy snorkelling without distraction. Thank you ninjiashark.

Got one of these for me and my 7 year old daughter for Xmas. We’ve used them twice already and love them!! So much easier to breathe, can see so much and just makes the whole snorkelling experience better! Would highly recommend!

Mermaid

While travelling in Timor leste l met a fellow snorkeller. We snorkelled for 10 days together the food was shit but the water was stunning. The friend was using Ninja Shark fins and mask mine were steaming up, letting in water and heavy. On arriving back in Australia l ordered straight away.
I was a little bit anxious on receiving my order as the mask was quite different to my old one and the fins were short and adjustable ( l wanted them to be my size ! ) well to my luck the weather was beautiful ( yes mid winter in Mackay ) and perfect for boating so off we scooted to Cockermouth ( don't laugh it's a real place ) jumping in and WOW I'm now a mermaid 🧜‍♀️ the mask and fins felt like part of me. I actually cried as not only was the equipment allowing me to explore as l wanted but the reef was STUNNING. So lm indepted to Ninja Shark for making me the mermaid l always aspired to be 🧜‍♀️

Took it to Tahiti

I wasn’t quite sure about getting a full face mask but bought mine (Electra package) before a trip to Tahiti which we got home from yesterday - absolutely LOVED it!!! I’ll be getting one for my wife before our next trip to a similar destination. BTW I make LOTS of crazy videos with lots of toys.

Super quality & fit

So happy we got Ninja shark, perfect for Great barrier reef snorkel day.
Flippers, mask, dry wallet, carry bag (good quality bag), anti fog spray, happy days.

Ninja Shark Kids Mask

We recently brought the Ninja Shark Kids 3-11 Mask + Fins + Bag package for our 7 year old who absolutely loves it! Will be buying three more for the rest of the family. 😊

Even better than expected!

I saw the kids full face snorkel masks online, and thought they looked pretty cool. I ordered two for Christmas, for my 3 and 6 year olds. Wow, did they have a great time with them!

I wasn't sure how the 3 year old would go with it, but he was comfortable in it almost immediately, and spent hours swimming around and seeing a whole new world of underwater scenery.

They were easy to fit, zero issues with them staying on. No leaks or fog.

They can't wait to get back to the water!

Highly recommend this product :)

Great way to swim

I have NEVER been able to snorkel but love swimming. These full face snorkels are an absolute game changer in my life. Now I try to swim around 5 kms a week in the local pool. The Ninja mask makes it easy to do laps. I’ve been using the Ninja Shark for a quite few years and find the new Electra the best full face mask ever. No leaks, no fog and really easy to use and great quality. I’ve noticed my regular chats with other swimmers at the pool have encouraged many of them to purchase one of their own. I’ve given my older models to my grandkids and they love them too.

Fabulous

I got one for the 3 year old and one for the 5 year old, I thought maybe the 3 year old would get the hang of it eventually but they both loved it and mastered it pretty quickly. We’ve only used in the swimming pool, excited to go snorkeling in the ocean soon. Great product.

Love it

Bought these for myself and my husband after getting the full face masks for the kids, and they were so good we’re getting them for the rest of the extended family for Xmas. The fact u can dive down and not get water down ur snorkel is a brilliant bonus! Makes our family holidays much easier and better without snorkel dramas!

This made our holiday

The product itself was amazing, but the service we received allowed us to get our 2 sets of masks for our cruise. We took them with us and used them multiple times for snorkelling on our cruise to Nouméa and New Caledonia. It was amazing snorkelling and being able to breathe easily, and the fins were the most comfortable I've ever used. I've got size 13 feet, and not only were they completely adjustable, but they were THE most comfortable fins ever invented. A massive shoutout to Colleen Zamora from your support staff who helped me out and made it possible to take our gear on holidays! Thanks Colleen!
The photo is us snorkelling off Amadee Island looking for turtles!

My kids love them

I’ve got three of these masks for my younger kids, however the oldest wants one too as the young ones rave about how good the are.

Summer Family Fun

Our Ninja masks have made snorkelling as a whole family very easy and enjoyable. The kids (and parents) find them super easy to use and have allowed us as a family of five to snorkel for longer than we ever could using traditional snorkel gear. I would highly recommend these masks.

Glad I have but haven’t needed to use .. yet

Great Mask

Love this mask. Kids find it so much easier snorkelling with the Ninja Shark. The snorkel mask is super clear and doesn’t fog up. The adjustable straps are great and easy to loosen and tighten. Very happy that we made the decision to get these for the kids.

A must for snorkelers!

Recently purchased the Equaliser Pro Mask, Finns and bag. 🤿 🐠🐡🐟🦈 Had an amazing time snorkeling off Fitzroy Island, the Pro mask allowed me to explore for over 7 hours. Higly recommend! Planning must next snorkeling trip! 🤿💦🌴☀️

awsome

we used our new masks over the weekend. they were amazing, my daughter barely had her head out of the water all day.
