Following the revolutionary principles introduced by the Big Eyes, the Cressi Matrix establishes new records. A new, advanced assembly system, that achieves a minimum thickness frame (6 mm) and diminishes remarkably the mask’s weight to 175 gr with strap included.
The patented concept of raked lenses and their special “inverted drop” is developed further here. The lenses are placed as closely as possible to the eyes, with the further increase in the field of vision taken to the maximum levels possible.
The newly designed headband is very narrow and is practically invisible when the mask is being worn. In the upper part of the headband there are inserts in a rubber material that not only has a strong grip, but is also aesthetically attractive. The soft silicone skirt has a new profile and a wide sealing ring for excellent grip and unprecedented comfort.
The internal volume of the mask is exceptionally low, lower than that of many free diving models and the weight is decidedly low. Two pressure buckles, integrated into the headband, allow for quick and accurate adjustment of the strap. The latter has a new design with a very wide support area at the back of the neck for magnificent comfort.
Matrix incorporates a new belt system, integrated on the frame and they’re oriented to the right direction of the strap’s tension. This system, adds to the structural rigidity of the central bridge and allows a very precise tension regulation that otherwise can create optical distortions.
The Cressi Matrix is an excellent mask for both snorkeling and scuba diving.
