I tried my Oracle mask again last night, this time with the neck strap.
I found as long as I was awake and focused on not allowing any nose leaks it worked pretty well. As i relaxed It started a quiet musical serenade through my nose. Then full on nose vent.
Using the included nose plugs is a non starter. My nares are to sensitive to allow anything to touch them. That is why I gave up on my first favorite 10 years ago the No Mask.
Any ideas on where to get a "cloths pin" type nose closer to make my Oracle work for me?

Contact me for help in adapting to the Oracle mask.
If you can persist until your brain learns how to not nose breathe, the mask will work very well.
BTW swimmers nose clips were a nightmare for me.
I have some nose clips that do actually work.
