Flex 7 > all other masks???

[Skoad]

Looking for a new one, most likely getting a flex 7...unless anyone can change my mind.

What do you all think is the best mask around 50 bucks?

I love my Flex. I wouldnt switch. The bottom rubber part is awesome. You can fold it up and whatnot while you're not playing. I like the soft ear parts on either side too. The lenses are always easy to find. The Flex 7 is pretty much the standard in my book.

from what i read on the description on pbgear it says it may come with replaceable foam for the inside....i guess so you can switch it out with some non-sweaty foam padding in mid day :)

FLEX 7 IS THE ONLY WAY TO GO!!!

I have 2 of em, soon to have a third!

But what I dont understand is why people fold them up? It doesnt do anything but tear up the mask. Granted, it DOES make the player look 1337..

P.S... Dye Invision > ALL other masks

I'm with you guys on lovin the flexs. I bought a proteus (after having 2 flexes, which i kept).....hated the proteus (way too heavy, just didnt feel like the flex). Now i've got a 3rd flex :) I've tried a number of other masks, but the flex7 has won out over them all. I'm probly gonna get rid of my other nonflex mask and pick up a 4th :) (gotta replace the dying flex7 that i have, it's 4 years old and still my primary mask :)).

the only beef i have with the flex is the foam on the ear.. its kinda hard, and i wear glasses, so it puts some pressure on my ears, but other than that i absolutely love em. Ive been hit in the rubber part 2 times so far with it and both bounced :). I just cant get the visor back on. Well, i can but it wont go on straight lmao. oh well, awesome mask never the less. :)

Two reasons: One, when you're wearing it. if you fold it up, fresh air hits your face more. Your breath doesn't build up right in front of your face. (This makes a difference when you wear it for 6 hours) And Two, When its on your head, like tilted back, it gives you more vision if the rubber is folded back. If you have the soft sides, theres no side screws in the rubber, so it really folds up far.

Main reason I say for the rolling of rubber as you will see by most teams, is so you can hear front players. Sitting in the snake and having two back guys shooting back and forth is kinda hard to yell over, as I have found out, lol. I use a Proflex, used to use a Flex 7, but the Proflex is just....l337er? Heh, the foam ears are comfy, although ear shots do hurt, but I dun care, im a man! err boy.

I swore by the Flex7 for a long time.

Until I bought my Morph. My VForce Morph is 10 times better than my Flex7, I love it.

Its super comfy, lenses are WAY easier to change, no stupid inner lense to crack (I broke the inner anti-fog lens on multiple spectra lenses, ruining hte lens).

Morph is my reccomendation.

I use flex's everyday iuntil yesterday when it hit the flex part and cam in and hit the roof of my mouth and lip and so I had to swallow like 5 paintballs that came in my mouth fast and made me gag. I even have it on video tape

[Torbo]

i very much like flex's, but theyre even in my book with a proteus. And to that extent, i have both, and love both more than any other.

[poolshark5226]

I prefer the Proteus, and you can pick them up for pretty much the same price if you look around

[Archangel Kid]

i'm with thordic... when i used to play i swore by my flex... then i got my morph. Wow these things are amazing, so comfy and the lense is virtually fog proof.
