The Kapitol Reef snorkel will revolutionize the sport of snorkeling. It beautifully addresses numerous breathing problems that plague traditional snorkels. Who would have thought that exhaling against a small amount of pressure would make one feel more relaxed in the water? But it’s true.This thing really works! It comfortably reduces resting respiratory rate, spares breathing muscles from fatigue, and helps to prolong dive times. I noticed right away that my own ventilation is more efficient with the Kapitol Reef snorkel. It has definitely increased my breath hold time. The fact that it stays incredibly dry just makes it that much more fun to use. This snorkel will appeal to both first-time snorkelers and champion freedivers.

Dr. Mark Johnson has leveraged his own experiences with ventilator technology to design the first snorkel based on scientific analysis of snorkel performance and the human body. Kapitol Reef Aquatics also did a great job polishing up this beautiful design, practically a work of art.
