Raven NXV goggles or Dye Invision? Which offers the best view, and which offers the best bounce?

If you want a mask good for bounces, don't get either. If you want a mask good for bounces, get a pro-flex.

Buuuut... If you are absolutely set on one of the two, get an invision.

You can't go wrong with an Invision.

i just think the photchromatic lenses with the raven is total pimpness. Im not sure about the dye... its $30 more than the raven on sale, and for that cost I guess I could get a profiler... right?

Hey Squid, where in arkansas are you? I live in hot springs.

Don't get a flex-7, those are pure crap in comparison to a proflex. Just spend the extra 10 bucks for something that will never let you down.

I live in Flippin, near Harrison, Mountain Home, etc. Northern AR.

flex7 is the same system except proflex has more "flexy" parts, like around the ear

Different foam, different ear pieces, different lip, crappy ear pads, and ugly as crap.

By the time you changed it all out you would have spent about 70 for the same mask as a 45 dollar proflex.

Its about 2.5-3 hours from Hot springs.

snap. I still do like the better protection of the flex 7. I just went to the JT USA website to look at the proflex. I had seen them all over Facefull, but I thought they were just cut-down flex 7's.

We'll have to play sometime, eh?

Sorry Squid, but you are wrong. THe proflex just has the soft ears, proteus frames, and the chinstrap. that is the only difference. the flex 7 is amazing, no doubt about it. and its cheeper because it isnt called the proflex. grab a flex 7 and dont look back.

Uhh... What? No, I am not wrong. I own 2 Pro-flex masks, and 2 Flex 7

Both flex-7 contain - hard sides and ear foam which can be seen in the pics
different inner lining foam
different flex piece (more rubbery, and ugly)

They are entirely different minus the goggles. (im talking about last years proflex, this years proflex are even more different because they have a different frame)

What are you talking about man?
