Do the adult snorkels have a bigger mouthpiece then the youth size? My 12 year old may be in-between.

The adult size is a bit bigger. I would recommend the adult one for your 12 year old if he's bigger. If you have one for yourself, have him try it out. I hope this helped.

the Medium/Large is going to be your best bet assuming you are referring to a 9 shoe size. I have to say this this is more of a kids set though, the more expensive ones get a premium price for higher quality mask. I had issue with the other brand aqualung having a broke mask fastening button the first try out, so I prefer the US divers brand but the higher end models offer a more quality package with articulated kick action on the fins and a better fitting mask. The snorkles are all pretty much the same.

No. Those have a smaller mouth on the bottle portion. I suggest you go take a look at them at a local store first, then you will see the difference. They come in a clear container so you will see the size difference. Then go buy on amazon.

My son has a small head so I had to get the youth. if he can fit the adult I would get the adult. Not sure there is much difference.

Hi, Ian, yes, they're the same- I think labeling the caps "kids" and "adults" is just marketing because the mouth opening of the 12 oz. bottle and the 18 oz. is the same size.

we took our sets to Cancun last year. They took up a lot of space in the suitcase, but we went snorkling every day & were very glad we had our own equipment to go whenever we want. The fins for xl mens are about 24 inches

I have purchased a pair of TYR Sport Burner fins for each of my grand children and they all love them. I got a size XSmall for the 7 now 8 year old. They were a little big but he is still wearing them. I think they really like the shorter fin as they aren't so awkward in them.

No this is more of a kids helmet and the face mask I got was definitely adult- my child is 11 and 80 lbs if this helps

I used this snorkel set in Kona on the big island and had no trouble with them. We also went out on the Body Glove tour boat, and they worked well for that. I think that people have too high expectations for this set. It's not a set you'd use with tanks. I had no trouble in twenty-five feet of water, on a nice day, and was able to dive down about Fifteen feet. I think I could have gone deeper if I could have held my breath longer. They are a little big for kids. My daughter had trouble with her mask leaking.

Yes. I use the standard adult heads for myself on this kids Sonicare. The kids 8+ size heads are the same size as adults heads, I'm not sure if there are any differences in the bristle firmness or anything else.

You most likely want to get them junior size goggles. We think these would most likely be too big for them.

We got the adult set and my grandson was 10 1/2. He loves them. I would say since your son is 12, the adult set would be better so you don't have to turn around and get another set in a year or two.

I would say so, if your 10 year old is of average build. It would fit my tall almost 8 yr old. It is super adjustable. I know some 10 year olds that would fit into an adult set better than a youth set. Our almost 8 year old is using a us diver adult mask and snorkel and it works for him.

They might be a little snug for 12 year olds. We are using them for a U7 them and they are a perfect fit.

Definitely the larger for your older. If your younger is on the bigger side, especially with head size, I would get the larger for them, too. My boy finally will swim under water because of these!

My son is 12, so not sure if the belt size would be different for an adult or not (I don't think so). He currently has belts in there, and there is room for 3 more.

I bought one for my 12 yr old and had to send it back because it was too small. Go with the adult small.
