New Mask?

[Vendetta]

I really like my JT nForcer. It's got thermal lenses and has never fogged on me, plus it has really nice padding around the nose and eye areas. Other than that, I'd look into the VForce Morph series and maybe a Dye Invision(both of which I've never tried but they look like quality masks).

[Vendetta]

Is the VForce the one that looks like bug eyes? I don't care for that look. I'll look at the JT's.

I really like my JT nForcers too, they have the JT spectra lenses and protect my forehead really well, here's a link to them

they are not the VForce

The Dye Invision is a fine mask. It has excellent ventilation (which also provides for ease of communication), and it is a great looking piece of equipment.



...be aware that it will set you back a pretty penny though.

the dye invisions are nice, but very minimalistic in protection, id say go v force, or a jt flex 7

i have tried multiple masks.
i OWN a flex7, and a protues. i use the protues more because it feels more compact and its tighter on my face but LOT more comfortable then the flex7 in my opinion.
the flex7 kinda hurts my ears, but the soft panels would solve that, but i'm afraid of getting shot in the flexy part.
i've also tried a invision. it just didn't really excite me the way i thought it would. my teammate can't use it because his chin sticks out. and ALL Of the invisions i've seen at fields fog easily so..

I realy like the V-force series. Most comfortable mask I've tried on, doesn't fog, easy to clean, easy to change the lense, easy to breath and comunincate, and plenty of protection. Plus, it's the most opticaly perfect lense available, you can't tell that it's on (More perfect than the human eye can tell). Someone wrote an article on it.

I do recommend Dye personaly!! However, my second choice would be the Flex7 series!!

if you want comfort over protection go for the raven nuvis, especially the new style. they are soooooooooooooooooooooo comfortable its not funny, especially compared to the jts. also because of the way it sits on your face you can breathe extremely easily. i say over protection because it doesnt have much for the neck or back of the head, but then again neither does the proteus. also, the lens tints automatically when the sun comes out, and if it gets dark the lens lightens up. definetly get it. NOW

oh yes, and the lense has what may be the widest viewing angle possible. you can look left and right and never see the edge of the mask. extremely good view, and when you wear it you almost forget about it being on your face. i love mine and hate the fact i have to use another mask for reffing

The Raven line of products seems to be up and coming. Those Raven Nuvis(I think thats what they are called) seem to be real nice. Just another one to consider

ravens are awesome, and teh company kicks butt. they also listen to all the complaints their customers give them, and every new version is based on what the customers tell them to improve. the first generation stank, they hurt, there wasnt enough foam, and they fogged. and so they released the version 2, which i have, and there were still some problems. my version fogs and the ear hurts a wee bit, but not as bad as version 1, and so the new version has foam for the ear, triple foam for the face (which makes it uber comfy) and thermal lenses so it cant fog. btw, i was listing only the bad properties here, so dont think im insulting the masks here. there are still really good properties even to the version one. but still, the new versions are just superb.

the clip on the back of the strap comes in handy, makes it easy to put on/take off, and the silicon on the head strap makes it so it doesnt bounce. get, now. sooo comfortable, thats their best asset on top of everything, the comfort!!

JT for years.. now V-Force....

the new Dye Invisions are two small, and I know they are trying to come out with a new lense, since people have complained about the present fogging problems above anything.

JT has always proven tride and tru, I've been using them for last 5-6yrs.

But the retension system of the lense for the new V-Force Morphs blow anything out of the water, regardless of a slightly more pronounced Nose section of the mask.
Takes like 20-30 seconds to change lenses, Extreme comfort, better view than JT Lenses.

Cheaper as well. Go V-Force Morph
