Profiler vs. lower-end V-Forces

[afultz075]

So i've been thinking of buring a new mask. I've been drawn to the V-Forces since I like their lens system, field of vision, and the fact that people rave over how they never fog. I really like the Profilers, but they're nearly twice as much as V-Forces other goggles. The Shield and Vantage Pro look nice too. Is the Profiler really $40 better than the other goggles? Anyone with experience with the Shield and Vantage Pro?

Yes, they are worth the extra cash. If ya look around you can get them cheaper than what ya think.

I don't know about the Shield & Morph, but I love my profiler.

I have a friend who has a shield, and myself had an armor. My friend is still cursing himself for buying the shield. It has like bug-eyes, and this weird throat thing that just gets in the way. Do yourself a favor and get the profiler. Or you could go with the invision if you weren't so drawn to Vforce. Invision or profiler is probably the way to go. Reach deep. Money spent now means your not doing this --> later.

Theres also the vantge. "The sister of the proflier" It looks good.
I own a Shield and it never fogs, feels pretty good

Just a note: the harder masks protect better - I have actually had my profilers flex in when taking multiple hits, resulting in physical contact to my face from the paintball.

Ditto, Its amazing, goggle hits.. Break out the lense, and get that thing spic n span

Go either Shield or Profiler, both use the same lens.

DO NOT get the Vantage, it costs more than the shield and it uses the same limited view lens as the Armors and the like.I don't know WTF V-Force was think on that one.

And for the Record, I have like 3 Profilers and they are my favorite masks over any other.

I agree

I wouldn't use spic n span... not good for the lenses from what I hear.

I have had semi close range balls bounce off the Profiler that would have broken on my firmer shield mask. The proflier and the morph have thicker more comfortable foam.

hey don't bash the vantage

haha i own a vantage, its not bad actually but i definitely of course will agree that the profiler is better. Ok the downfalls of the vantage: heavier, less field of view. It's better in that it covers more of your jaw and the side part gives more bounce than the profiler in that its softer and more bendable. I bought this mask right when it came out and when the morph was still $64 on pbgear.com. Now that its dropped to the same price, definitely get the morph. However, I would still personally get the vantage over the shield just cuz it looks much cooler haha.

I would pick a profiler over most goggles out there, and yes even the invision

Profiler>pro-flex>invision>others

Profiler is a great mask. It will fog on you if the humidity is up. I have a JT Spectra for backup. The Profiler is the most comfortable goggle going.
