Product Availability

the comfort, feels like all your wearing is goggles, not a mask
Weaknesses:
fog resistant lense is just a coated lense, and not a true thermal
Review:
I love the full range of vision, and how much better the hearing is with this mask, They made it so that all you can feel is the goggles, and then just the foam in back of your ears, but the rest of the mask pretty much stays away from your face. And the flex bottom is sweet, and it looks way cool !! :) The fog resistant lense is just that resistant, they should be more clear that it is not a true thermal lense, but that is more the "seller's" fault than JT's ( most online retailers are saying it has a thermal lense when it is just the coated and not the double lense). And with the way the mask sits away from your face there is alot more room for air to disapate so it is wayyyy better at decreasing the fogging. Though since it does sit away from your face I went and got a neophrene neck gaurd. Not that I have gotten shot there, but compaired to my last mask the JT doesn't cover as much. But that being said, I totally like the amount of coverage, and the mix of material to do it with, soft on the mouth/cheak, pretty solid nose, flexible visor, and really stiff ear/temple protection, it's perfect!
Conclusion:
Mine must have been a special build for a tourney prize or something. It is all black, but with the brown "tiger eyes" front mask like off the IZE models. I got it off E-bay for thirty bucks plus five to ship. I think that maybe the guy that sold it might have just sold the tinted lense that usually comes with the IZE models seperate?? maybe
Anyway, this mask rules, I was going to get my bro one, but he said he didn't even like wearing the mask in the first place and that he didn't want to spend more money on one. But as soon as he saw, and then even more when he tried it on, he was like, dam I got to get one of these.......LOL Great Product!! worth the money...

Review:
When i first bought this mask i thought it was cool because the bottom part was soft but then one time i ws playing and i got hit in the flexible soft part and the ball smoked me in the mouth and that really hurt my face but i got over it and now i am kinda scared in being hit in the mouthpeice because it will hurt . The lense is the only good part on this mask...!!!
Conclusion:
If you don't want to have a sore jaw then don't get this mask.

Strengths:
Comfortable, thermal lense
Weaknesses:
None
Review:
This mask is great. It looks very similar to the proflex but this has hard ear protection instead. The thermal lens never fog up and it is very comfortable. Some of the problems that I have had with this mask though is that the gel skirt has been pushed out of the way by a paintball and I got hit in the cheek but it slowed it down enough to where it didn't hurt and that has only happened once since I have had it. Also, the foam padding for the ears have come of but I was able to take a nerf bullet, rip of the head of the bullet, and glue it on (my creativeness).
Conclusion:
This is a great mask. Definitely get it.

Review:
I bought this mask this summer because my grill was falling apart at the ears and the strap would pop out of the clips occasionally. D: Anyway, after approx. 3 months of reffing and playing with this mask I've come to love them. The foam is super comfy and the bottoms are nice and bouncy, even if you fold them up you can get bounces. I also like that it covers my entire face and most of my head while being quiet airy and light. Although the ears won't get you any bounces I've been bunkered and shot up in the ears/face and I'm glad I had them and got to keep my ear drums functional. I have the clear flex and I cleaned it once thus far and I have NO stains so, I'm not sure what other speak of in this area. I haven't disassembled the frames and lense so, I'm not sure if I even will as you can just run it under the water and give it a few days to dry. Beware! The lens will fog if you get water in the foam between the panes but, it clears up in a few hours.
Conclusion:
Great mask for people with big faces! I haven't had an issue yet and doubt I will. Best mask I've ever used!

Review:
I LOVE THIS MASK! Its a cheaper proflex, the only thing different is the ear protection (like the ears better on the flex 7). The first time i saw the mask im like eh might as well because jt makes amazing products and it came with a free fan :-]. Took them out and i fell in love. They fit perfect they cause paintballs to bounce off of your face and they are just all around amazing!
i do not recommend this mask, The bottom of the max does not stop paintballs all the way. I was shot in the bottom of the mask in the rubber part, went through and hit me in the lip and tounge cutting me bad. Dont get this mask if you have other options.

Review:
This mask is great! I bought mine about 3 years ago now and it has held up really well. The Flex is comfortable- it contours to your face well and is very light. This mask will also accept the Vortex fan from JT. This is a really nice add-on for people with glasses-no more fogging! The bottom portion of the mask is a very soft silicone like material, which has a major advantage...shots really do bounce right off! I would say that 3/5 of shots taken to the lower portion will bounce. Also, the foam is velcroed in which allows for easy removal and cleaning.
I only have one complaint about this mask. Do not buy the clear/white color! I bought that color and it was badly stained in about 6 months of playing. The material seems to absorb the paint color if left on for more than 15 minutes. That's really not a big deal...buy the black one (personal preferance...it matches all jerseys and guns).
Conclusion:
This is a solid mask and replacement lenses are easily found. The foam is removable for cleaning, it accepts a fan, balls frequently bounce off the lower portion, and it is extremely comfortable.
Ok the only problem i had with this mask is that i didnt like the rubber part of the mask..i.e. the flex part, im not a speed baller and id rather have the ball break then bounce......i had a ball hit the the edge and rather than stopping it the mask bent back..and the ball hit my jaw..usualy i dont mind...but it hurt plus it left a mark...not cool it look like tinker bell got pissed off and punched my chin...
apart from that i had no real problem with them mask...although i eventually changed it for a vantage...harder profile...
also i got it for like 40...so i was happy
Conclusion:
Good stuff for speedballers wanting the bounce or ppl with smaller faces....
