    the invision gives you a very small profile...ever since I got(3 months) I have only been hit in the mask like 3 times and it feets extreamly snug to your face doesint move around at all...I have a big head and the only thing that drops out is my chin when I yell....but serusly its not a problem...

      the invision is an awsome mask except somhow the anti-fog stuff is coming off my lenses, it pissed me off, i still have to call dye about that, but otherwise they fit like a glove.... a large red face glove, Besides the fact that everytime i yell on the field i eat paint, but thats okay

        Junk. Maybe the worst paintball purchase I've ever made.

        -Lenses are full of distortion and they LOVE to rip apart at the foam connecting both lenses. Buying $25 lenses every time this happens is expensive.

        -The top "pins" that bring the ears and google part together end in sharp little points, and are extremely painful when bumped/hit.

        -Foam surrounding lenses is made of three layers of different densities. On my goggles the glue or whatever has rotted away and foam has separated off the goggles(bad).

        -Lenses never fit frame properly. Had to take a razor to add some slack.

        -Mask seems to get bleached by paint.

        -Mask seemed to ride on my nose(I'm no Cyrano, either). Never got really good seal between goggles and face. Not meant for human sized heads.


        After replacing three lenses in as many days' of play, I got so disgusted with the Invision I finally bought a flex 7. Couldn't be more pleased about the flex.

            i love my dye invisions. all the problems demented rabbit had ive never encountered. ive had them since july and the lense is still in good condition. only problem is you should wear a neck protector because the chin line is really low.

            and they look better than pyschoballers vforce morphs.

              if you have glasses, they are going to squish them right against your nose

              they are nice and tight to your face

              they dont provide enough cover for your neck...



              i just think they look cool :o

                I will have an opinion soon since I just ordered some to try something different.

                Being from the old school, I have really only used Scott Stalker and Strike masks. I made a connect from eBay and a guy was able to get myself 10 of the original Stike thermal masks for $15. I have 5 left since I gave some away as thank you's.

                Anyway, if you wanna eat paint, the Scott strike is the way to go, but the front of the mask drops half way to your chest so no adam's apple shots. I have a V-Force for my daughter, but unless the temp is right, I get condensation, as bad as a fog. Would a Morph work better since it seems more open?

                My Dye Invision opinion will come soon....

                  They are nice. Little low near the chin. If you wear glasses they will fog. Can wait for some type of invision fan. Right now I had to zip tie my JT fan to it.


                  EDIT:

                  Oh yea, lenses are hard to change.

                    ok a few things on the dye mask

                    I love mine but know alot of paople who hate them

                    the first day it felt very strange but it was the first non jt mask I had used in over ten years

                    whipper
                    airstream
                    flex 7
                    flex ice
                    and the invision

                    it is a bit small so if you are worried about a throat shot or perhapse getting hit on the tips of the ears it may not be for you

                    it can kind of be a pain in the butt to remove the lenses
                    but i found if you remove them like you don't care about them (don't be gentle) they are not that bad
