Re: Draeger Nova FFM?

[quote=rogeringebo;71658]<snip>
So here are a few questions..

-It looks a bit big,does it feel big when diving?

-How much is it in Europe?

-Is it easy to equalize?

-Does it come in a "breatherversion"?

-I have a Golem BOV,any tried it with a BOV?
</snip>/quote]

Disclaimer: Draeger Nova is the only FFM I have dived with

I find the mask is generally very comfortable and it doesn't feel big in use.

Equalising is easy once you have adjusted the pads to suit your nose

Yes, there is a CCR version, this comes with a bite mouthpiece

Bailout on the Nova is via a 2nd stage plugged into one of the side ports, to breath OC you simply breathe through your nose.

Downside: There is a sliding assembly on the internal mouthpiece, if this isn't either fully open or fully closed it can lead to a flood, DrMike has already posted about this.

All in all I highly rate this mask, just need to strip mine down and lube the sliding assembly now.
