I disagree actually - the hydrostatic pressure difference created by using a snorkle seems to result in a significantly higher WOB on inhale than a over shoulder lung rebreather. Personally I think that snorkles breath like shit (but the swim really well
)

That may very well be the case. The last time I snorkeled was a year ago - I'll have to give it a shot again. When I used to swim distance in the ocean I used a particular, large bore Scubapro snorkel that felt comfortable on both phases of the breathing cycle. I'll keep this on my mind as an experiment for the summer.
