Review:
I've only used this mask 10 times and its the most uncomfortable thing I have ever worn. I can't begin to describe how horrible this mask is. There is no way a ball could bounce of this mask. it would brake no matter what. My friend had one of these before I got mine. When he got shot in the goggles, it would start to bleed down in the mask even after he thought he got all the paint off. The first time I used this mask, I got shot in the neck 10 times that day, it could have been my fault but there was no neck protection. Also it left a rash under my eyes for almost three days.
Conclusion:
I wouldn't recommend this terrible mask to anyone. It is the worst mask I have ever used or seen. The mask that you can rent, which are so over used and old, are still better than the Nvader right out of the box. And if anyone doesn't agree with this review tell me why instead of just sayin its unhelpful. And I'm guessing that only a bunch of noobs are reading this review because you all said this was unhelpful.

Most of you are all idiots. I have worn this mask in at least 70 games and I have had it fog on me....you guesed it.......0 times.
The air holes are plenty big enough.
Same vision as most other masks.
Coverage goes well below chin unless you have a chin the size of the sears tower.
And the pads are as soft as a babys bottom.
r u serious! maybe the holes r fine but ive checked the vision size. this mask goes 190 degrees. i no for sur becuz ive read about it. thats the lowest number ive seen for ne mask.and maybe u have a pin head becuz i dont have a chin the size of the sears tower. the thing is so small on me. and the pads rnt ruff or nething but probably unlike u im runnin fer 6 hours so i sweat in them and they rub against my face. and by the way ive worn this mask for over 160 games. so i think i wud no more.

so what shuld I get for 25 or less? I'm a noob and I've rented once and It was ok, so I'm pretty tolerant but what's the best I can get for 30 or less?
there isnt much u can get for 30 bucks or less. u cud get the proto switch, or the JT flex 7. which r both around 30 dollars. and both like 100 times better than this piece.

<-----If this mask is sooo bad, why would you subject yourself to the punishment of wearing it for "over" 160 games? Don't buy that case of paint for one week, and you can buy a high-end mask!
o ya sur thats ur way of folding. u cant think of nething 2 say cuz i pushed all the rite buttons and im totally spot on. ur probably 1 of those rich kids or guys who lives off there parents money for paintball.
quote:Originally posted by paintballjungle ok buddie unlike u i cant afford another mask. im not rich. and i cant even play every week. and the paint i buy is low end. probably unlike u i dont need expensive gear 2 get ppl out. thats the difference btween us. h 0 m 0.

All right then...first of all, your spelling is horrible. Pay attention in school. Unless your under the age of 10, there's no need to spell as bad as you do. Next...I am not "rich". I haven't played paintball at all this year, so it would seem you play more often than me. I also buy low-end to mid-grade paintballs. I own three Autocockers, which need a decent (round) ball to be accurate. My first marker was a 98 custom, which I still own. I played with low-end gear for a few years. I started playing paintball when I was 24. I am now 28. So this means: I do not live off my parents. I am not rich. I work very hard, and make good money. My parents are not rich. They both work, and are middle-class.
I do not need "expensive" gear to get people out. I used to rip with my electro-98 and get out the young punks with Angels and timmy's, it was fun. I now own more expensive gear, 4 markers, and three sets of masks, tanks, hoppers, etc, so friends that don't own PB gear can play. You started ripping me for no reason, I merely pointed out a fact. If the mask is so bad, why use it? Better masks can be had for 35 bucks. I own one of these, as well as a BE mask, and my personal Invision. I saved my money, and bought all my upgrades one by one. Calling someone a "h 0 m 0" on a product review message board is both immature, and inappropriate. Calling names is meaningless, as your are hiding behind your computer screen. Would you call a 28 year-old guy at your local field a "h-0-m-0" to his face? If you say yes, your kidding yourself. How was that for "can't think of nething 2 say"? Your pushing no one's buttons but your own. Makes you feel good about yourself. Also, isn't a bit funny that someone named "pbjunglewingman" agreed with you? That's obviously you. Next time, don't use a fake name that has your name in it. There ya go, have at it, i'm sure i'll hear from ya soon...
i didnt rite the h0m0 thing my friend did cuz he thot it was funny. and i am over 10. and the only reason my spellin sux is cuz i dont care cuz this has nothing 2 do with school.. and of course i wudnt call a 28 year old a h0m0 cuz thats just askin for a beating. and second ive played twice this year. and even if i did call u a h0m0 it wudnt make me feel better. that is just ridiculous. and i dont own this mask nemore. but i had 2 use it cuz i seriously cudnt afford 2 buy another 1. there r no stores near me and online is way 2 expensive. its worth it 2 put myself thru wearing this piece of sh.it cuz if i bought a new mask i wudnt be able 2 play. and btw i wrote this review like a year ago. so now i have a new mask. but i bought it off a friend. so seriously i cant afford new stuff. pretty much all my gear is used except my gun. like my tank, mask, hopper.
