Atomic SV2 Semi-Dry Snorkel - Black/Clear

Product Description

Many divers won't even dive with a snorkel, just look around on the next dive you take at the beach or out on the charter boat, very few snorkels. You also hear many divers on those dives complain about their short bottom times and want to know how to increase it for more fun. A snorkel is part of that answer. The amount of air a diver wastes on the surface breathing from their regulator drastically reduces the amount of air for the actual time they are underwater. A snorkel that is easy to clear is low in profile and one that stays dryer inside is what you are looking for. SV stand for Scupper Valve, also known as a one-way-valve. Just like the one-way-valve in your regulator which when you exhale drains water from your regulator the scupper valve basically works the same. The SV2 uses an additional feature that keeps water away from your mouth a small tube located just below the mouthpiece is designed to keep the breathing airway path free of water droplets. To keep water from easily entering the top of the snorkel the SV2 incorporates a grill grid opening which deflects water that would go down the end of a conventional snorkel tube. So if you hate to use a snorkel, but want more bottom time this is the solution you are looking for


  • Low Profile Design
  • Easy to Clear
  • Valve and Tube Keeps Water Away from Mouth
  • Comfortable Mouthpiece
  • Semi-Dry Top

5.0 out of 5 stars Best snorkel money can buy, October 24, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase( What's this?)
Recently purchased this snorkel and used it for a snorkel/scuba trip in Hawaii. Breathing is effortless, purging is easy, and it seems like it's not even there when you're diving with a regulator. Although it's not a "dry" snorkel, it's perfectly designed so that incoming water flows naturally through the vent and is directed out of the airway. Besides, you don't have the heavy bulk of the dry snorkel to weigh you down. The reservoir below the mouthpiece also acts as a buffer in case you do get some unwanted water entering in.

Yes, it's more expensive than some snorkels, but it's the best snorkel money can buy.

3.0 out of 5 stars super comfortable, June 25, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase( What's this?)
This is a super comfortable snorkel - very flexible and great mouth piece. My mouth piece tore only weeks into using it. Company did not respond until Amazon stepped in and will fix/replace under warranty. I hope it was unique to my snorkel. Will update when I have the new one for a bit. If good - then this is a 5. If it tears then there is a problem.
