    Another Profiler question thread

    I've been looking a lot lately at the profiler reviews, pictures, threads, and just general talking of it and it seems like quite the awesome mask. I currently have a JT Proflex and I'm very happy with it, but the Profiler just looks so very very inticing and from what many peopel say that have used both masks, the Profiler seems to be much more enjoyable. The vision seems better, it's lighter, looks sweet, and has great padding.

    For the past 2 months I've only seen a few Profilers at my local field, but I never got a chance to use one to test it out on my own. So.. what I'm asking you guys is, do you think I should make the switch? Is it that much better than my current mask? I don't want to make an impulse decision off just reviews and hype if I end up hating it. I dont want reviews of the Profiler, I'd just like to know if you think it's a good idea to switch and why?

    Btw, I currently have a red Proflex and would go for a red or grey or black Profiler.

    Thanks for the input!

    I say buy it. Its the best mask I have ever owned and I've owned a bunch in my ten years of playing. Even if it turns out you don't like it you can always sell it without losing a whole lot on it.

      Honestly I love my red profiler. It's a huge step above the Proteus I had. If you buy it and don't like it you might get your money back w/ resale. The red was a bit duller then I thought it was gonna be but it's still nice. Only thing I don't like is the tiara of a forehead protector, but it does keep the forehead hickies at bay.

        I used to think that it looked dorky but it's actually grown on me!

            Way ahead of you

            If anyone asks why I'm wearing it I can reply with, "Empress? Hello! Gotta keep up with the theme......yeah, that's it"

              When I had it on my mask I felt that I should've been a character at Disneyland. I have gone to the visor version due to not having a smoke lense (which I have now) and now I don't feel like being a princess so I'm keeping the visor.

                Well, since I never had a tiara as a kid, there's no time like the present to have one!

                I'm not too fond of that visor, though.

                  Quick questions:

                  1) Can the lenses take goggle skinz?

                  2) The trade for the masks, would it be straight up? My mask has only been used 3 times and is in damn near PERFECT condition. I think the goggles have only like 2 minor scratches from close gogging during paint checks (When I ref) and everything else is perfect.

                    If you've got the money...

                    If you have $75-90 (I got mine for $72 at Pev's during their sale) laying around then I think it's a strong purchase. The mask is very light and the lenses are a snap to change once you do it a few times. The Profiler goggle system is a definite step up.

                      I have had my spectras for ... well along time how about that... and my flex 7 for about 7 years now and this is the first mask on the market I would eve think about switching over to. The biggest thing for me is that they dont crush my dumbo ears like every other mask on the market does. Very very nice if you ask me

                        go with the profiler, i seriously had some boucned off that mask and it's very comfortable. Works well with people with glasses also.

                        lense is very easy to clean, just snap off 2 clips and take out the lense, clean it, and snap it back in!

                              All of my teammates, myself inclusive have profilers. We all love them except for one thing, they all seem to get condensation on the upper middle of the lense. Granted antifog works, but you shouldn't need to antifog a $80 mask.
