Finally got a chance to use my prescription snorkel mask and I LOVED IT! Erin (who has her own nonprescription mask) and I spent two hours in the slightly chilly Whitewater River in upstate SC. (But so close to NC we could've snorkeled there with a slightly longer walk.)

I also experimented with my GoPro. But turns out there was only 19 seconds on the sd card! So get ready to laugh, and keep an eye out for a snorkeling sasquatch.

A few things I have figured out on my own already, but would like to get some pointers from more seasoned folks as to how I could make this better given the conditions; faster water, sun in our face, low vis, so on, so forth...

Are you sure that just isnt what the vid looks like? We are talking about Matt after all.

Daaaannnngg it! I got thrown off there faster than I got locked down here on the forum! Have no idea what I could have done.

Michael, don't be so snarky. You know that can't be my video, the words aren't upside down...
