FFM or hybrid

Post by k_ogre » Sat Apr 18, 2015 3:53 am

I really like my P10 but I've been mouth breathing and the chin strap helps some but not enough. I been looking a FFM ( F10 I think) or a hybrid . anyone use them what do you think? ups and downs of each
note: I'm a side sleeper and I roll side to side

For years, I could not get a full face mask to work for me and I am a severe mouth breather. I finally got the Mirage Quattro to work, but it was a struggle. When the F10 came out, I jumped all over it. I like the F10 because it's lightweight and works for me. I am not a big fan of the hooks that connect the lower part of the mask to the harness. I also get a leak rate of less than 10L/m every night. Only Pugsy knows how that's killing me, but I have learned to live with it. The F10 is a great mask and has become my mask of choice. I tried the Liberty hybrid mask early on, with no success. That doesn't mean you would not have success. We are all particular about our mask. It's a personal thang'

4 years ago I was given the Mirage Quattro it was never fitted and leaked horribly. I still have the mask and I have played with it with no luck.so far I'm thinking the F10 or the mirage liberty. the liberty look nice and I have little issues with the P10 other than I could never shut my mouth.
