VADER fanette

The beautiful curves and high performance of the Vader are designed to appeal to women. For skin diving through scuba diving, it is the ideal single-lens mask.

UV420

Less than 400nm of ultraviolet rays of UV-A are cut 98%.Cutting near infrared rays helps preserve the composition of lutein.

  • WIDE SIGHT IS SECURED Inclination 10 degrees

    Normally, due to pressure squeeze and other causes, mask frames designed to improve the downward arc of vision tend to exert more pressure on the cheekbones. The soft damper relieves this stress.

    While the mask is fitted, the release buckle and fine pitch strap adjustability make it easy to find the most comfortable fit. Even wearing thick gloves, you can easily adjust the mask using one hand.

  • DIFFICULT TO LEAK Leakless system
    Leakless system

    Water is most likely to flood the nose and mouth area when gaps open in the seal between mask and skin. This may happen, for example, if the mask rides up on the face, and if leaking occurs at the cheeks when you are adding a mouthpiece or at the the corners of the mouth when you grin underwater. Here, to avoid compromising the seal when your facial muscles move, the mask form is optimized to maintain fit and feel.

Performance

UV420 CUT lens

The UV420 Cut lens is able to block harmful HEV (highenergy visible light in 400 to 420 nm spectrum) which causes oxidative stress and deterioration of lutein.* * People say that lutein acts like natural sunglasses. It is present as a pigment in the retina, the crucial part of the eye that receives light and lets you see. Here, helping to prevent cumulative macular degeneration, it blocks harmful light and has an anti-oxidant effect. Lutein is destroyed when it absorbs harmful light. Its presence in the retina is limited and, because the body cannot make lutein, it can only be replaced by eating lutein-rich food.

How a tunnel looks with different colored light Orange light makes objects more visible by in increasing the contrast of shadowed edges. White light increases overall visibility by generally lighting everything more brightly.　As in the orange-lit tunnel, a UV400 amber lens increases contrast. Meanwhile, a UV420 lens lets everything remain brighter overall. White LED light

An eye behind an ordinary lens

Light tends to cause oxidative stress and lutein (pigment) deterioration.

An eye protected by a UV420 Cut lens

Protection of lutein reduces oxidative stress:less pigment deterioration.

Two types of highperformance lens

UV420 Cut Aqua LensGet the following benefits from UV420 glass Eye Protection …Blocks harmful UV and near infrared wavelengths. Cutting near infrared rays helps preserve the composition of lutein, so important for healthy vision. Brighter field of vision…Overall visibility is effectively enhanced by the bluish tint (aqua color).
Super Clear LensEnables greater clarity than standard glass. You see more objects more clearly because, by rigorously excluding impurities from the glass, light transmittance is maximized. With a clear silicone mask, skirt reflections on the lens are also minimized.

New lip form (new-form silicone)Differing from previous masks, with a new lip design, the VADER fanette is less prone to leakage around the cheeks when you use a regulator. As the picture shows, the outline around the cheek and cheekbone, extending beyond the most uneven contours of the face, ensures better sealing. This makes it harder for leaks to occur.

Low volume

Volume:125cc Weight : 223g
Even while inheriting the form of the VADER, the lowvolume design makes it easier to exhale into the mask for equalization and mask clearing.

Smaller Size

When wearing the VADER, some women said the mask felt a little too big. Designed to fit a female face, to be neither too big nor too small when worn by a woman, the new form reflects this sensitivity.
