Inexpensive
Good Field of Vision
Sweet Detachable Lens
Weaknesses:
Doesn't cover as much of the jaw line as some.
Review:
I was really surprised by all the people trashing this little mask. I bought it as a guest mask at the recommendation of Jeff at mountainpaintball.com. It is really sweet. The friend that used it this last Sunday had NO fogging problems and it was 90 and humid. There were guys too fogged up to see to shoot all day, but he didn't have any problem. The detachable lens is great. It makes the shield so easy to clean. I also have a 32 Degrees mask besides the Vents and the JT. The Tippy mask has better peripheral vision than either of the JT or the 32 Degrees and neither of them has a detachable lens. I have worn it a couple of times. It is very comfortable for me. It is lighter than the 32^ or the JT. My son has tried it on and says it is as comfortable as his V-Force. Yes it is hard plastic and you aren't going to get many bounces, but it is an entry level mask! Paintballmountain gave me a great price on it so, I have a great little mask as a spair or as a loaner. Yes, it doesn't cover as much of the face as some. But it covers the essentials, like the eyes and the nose just like any other.
Conclusion:
This is a fine little mask. If you are getting started and are strapped for cash, or you squeek when you walk like me, buy this mask. Good bang for the $
