GULL VADER FANETTE MASK

Low Volume　

Even while inheriting the form of the VADER, the low-volume design makes it easier to exhale into the mask for equalization and mask clearing.

Divers with smaller facial structures may find the standard VADER to be slightly on the larger side. VADER fanette incorporates an overall reduction in size to accommodate for those with smaller facial structures.

Specification: 

UV420 CUT AR　Amber Lens

UV420 CUT AR lenses offer protection against UV & HEV　rays preventing deterioration of Lutein (responsible for protecting the eye tissues from sunlight damage).　The amber coloring enhances visibility by increasing　contrast to better see objects underwater.

Skirt with Curled Lip and Integrated Strap Clip

All-in-one design ensures firm but gentle contact with the　face. When you pull on the strap, you get an effective seal　that is less likely to leave impressions on your skin.

DX Spec Mask Buckle

While the mask is fitted, the release buckle and fine pitch strap adjustability make it easy to find the most comfortable fit. Even wearing thick gloves, you can easily adjust the mask using one hand.

Soft Damper

Normally, due to pressure squeeze and other causes, mas k f rames des igned to improve the downward arc of vision tend to exer t more pressure on the cheekbones. The soft damper relieves this stress.

Drain Skirt

The drain skirt design improves water expulsion during mask clearance and minimizes water pooling.

Low Volume

Closer distance between the lens and the eye (smaller content area) provides a wider field of vision.

Super Clear Lens

Enables greater clarity than standard glass. You see more objects more clearly because, by rigorously excluding impurities from the glass, light transmittance is maximized. With a clear silicone mask, skirt reflections on the lens are also minimized. 

Leakless System

To avoid compromising the seal when your facial muscles move, the mask form is optimized to maintain fit and feel.

Leakless System

Water is most likely to flood the nose and mouth area when gaps open in the seal between mask and skin. This may happen, for example, if the mask rides up on the face, and if leaking occurs at the cheeks when you are adding a mouthpiece or at the corners of the mouth when you grin underwater. Here, to avoid compromising the seal when your facial muscles move, the mask form is optimized to maintain fit and feel.

High-Performance Lens

UV420 CUT AR Amber Lens

UV420 CUT AR lenses offer protection against UV & HEV rays preventing deterioration of Lutein (responsible for protecting the eye tissues from sunlight damage). The amber coloring enhances visibility by increasing contrast to better see objects underwater.

Super Clear Lens

Enables greater clarity than standard glass. Objects are seen more clearly. By rigorously removing impurities from the glass, light transmittance is maximized. Skirt reflections on the lens are also minimized with a clear silicone mask.

Protects eyes from UV rays (up to 400nm), and HEV light (400-420nm), that contribute to oxidative stress and deterioration of lutein*. AR (Anti- Reflective) feature improves light transmittance for better visibility. People say that lutein acts like natural sunglasses. It is present as a pigment in the retina, the crucial part of the eye that receives light and lets you see. Here, helping to prevent cumulative macular degeneration, it blocks harmful light and has an anti-oxidant effect. Lutein is destroyed when it absorbs harmful light. Its presence in the retina is limited and, because the body cannot make lutein, it can only be replaced by eating lutein-rich food.

Features of Amber Color Lens

Comparing Orange and White (LED) Light Effects in a Tunnel

Orange light makes objects more visible by in increasing the contrast of shadowed edges. White light increases overall visibility by generally lighting everything more brightly.　As in the orange-lit tunnel, a UV400 amber lens increases contrast. Meanwhile, a UV420 lens lets everything remain brighter overall.
