I've not had a mask squeeze problem, just a mask leak problem because of
my thick head of hair(one of those reasons I don't like cold water is I
had trouble the first time I dove with trying to get all my hair into
the hood, fortunately now I've seen that there is a hood with wrap
around velcro adjustments from scubapro I believe. But I see there must
be alot of people who breath in through there nose when they are diving
personally I didn't have a problem with this since I just had my mind
set as if I had a congestion problem so I would just breath in and out
through my mouth, and I didn't have any problems with the test in Open
water where you have to dive underwater and swim without a mask. My Ex
had a big problem with that skill test he inhalled water every time.
