My wife had the same problem with the same mask. However, after she asked a similar question she received the same answer, the mask was too tight.

So, long story short and a few new masks later, she loosened the straps and her mask leaks have stopped. I never realized this condition for myself but after checking my mask (that has never leaked) strap, I found it quite loose.

The water pressure will hold the mask very securely underwater, so don’t worry, loosen the strap a little and try it, then a little more. It only needs to be tight enough to hold it on your face.

BTW, Welcome to ScubaBoard!
