This is the new VForce mask. It comes in Black, Green, Yellow, Orange, White, Blue and Red. Unlike most masks the nose area is made out of pliable rubber(the black section or colored section). As with most of the VForce mask, the Profiler offers a very wide range of vision without being to bulky. It infact hugs tightly to almost any size head, thus the name Profiler. It most definatly is the "World's Fastest Mask". The ease of removing the lens is incredible, you could possibly remove it in around 5 seconds if you were in a rush to clean the lens between games efficiently. VForce is a trusted name in paintball for its optical superiority and field of vision.

Review:
I got this mask after a while saving up, and I don't regret it one bit. Flat out, it is the best system out there, with insane protection, field of view, NO FOGGING (and I wear glasses), very tight to the face, VERY comfortable, and it even gets the occasional bounce. I like how it comes with two separate visors, although I don't use either one (unless it's raining). The lense-changing system is truly revolutionary, it takes me less than a minute to pop out the old one, clean it to a mirror shine, and pop it back in. No more prying away at a Proflex with a screwdriver, no sirree!
I'm not going to go too in-depth, as other people have reviewed it nicely for you.
But basically, this is the best mask I have ever used.
Conclusion:
This mask is a little steep, price-wise, but is by far worth it.

Review:
I really love this mask. When i first got it and put it on i was amazed at how big the lens was and how comfortable it is. I also like how it covers ur whole chin because if youve ever taken a bounce to the chin you know that it hurts.... badly. I dont know why so many people like the Dye invision its a piece of crap compared to this. All my gear is Dye except fof my mask, the Profiler is way superior to the Invision or the Flex-7. I was at a tournament and i was wearing the visor i got hit right in the visor and it bounced off! I was so suprised i could of sworn that it popped. Well whatever. The lens is also really easy to take off and clean even while your at the field, not on the field that would be stupid! It takes me about 6 or 7 seconds to take off the lens. If you have ever tried to take the lens out of the frame on any JT or Dye mask its a pain, takes me like 5 or 10 minutes to do it. You definitely cant do it at the field. So yeah if youre thinking of getting the highly over-rated Dye Invision or a Jt Flex-7 dont, get this.
Conclusion:
This mask is the ultimate mask for any kind of player. If you want the mask that allows you to see more and to feel like you dont even have it on then get a profiler. You'll definitely be happy with it. And if youre not then sue me!

Wide view
Lens removal
Low profile
Looks good
No fog
Weaknesses:
Len clips
Paint sometimes gets under the lens
Review:
Well, i started using the JT proflex that my cosin gave me for a present. It was a good mask but it tended to atract the paintballs and i used to get alot of jawbone slap when i was hit. So my parents said I could get a new birthday present. So I got a profiler. One of the best gogles ive ever used. The first thing I noticed was how slim it looks. Much more pleasing to look at than my proflex. The second thing was how good it looks as well. So i go out onto the field and chuck on my mask and whoa! The difference in my feild of vision was astounding. I could see about 25% more than i could with the proflex and about 15% more than the Dye I3 pro (my mates got one)
After about 3 club days i get hit in the lens and a little dribbles under. So i take it home and find the lens removal a snap. Besides the fact that the clip are a little hard to pull off at first, it was easy. Easy to put out and in. My mate has never taken apart his I3 Pro because its just way to complicated.
With fog, i have had no trouble foging what so ever. Ive played in many different weather conditions and had a big ZERO with fog. Again, sometimes my mates I3 pro gets a little fog.
Conclusion:
I recommend this product to anyone who is looking for a good, pro level mask at a good price. 9.75

I have been using a profiler for two years now and all I can say is WOW! This mask is amazing.
PRICING: The pricing is a little high for some, but overall very reasonable for the quality of the product.
COLOR: The color variations available are amazing. It comes in six normal colors and also five reverse colors. (I have the reverse red w/chromed orange lens). Another nice cosmetic feature is the option of either a visor or cool little spikes that come straight up.
LENS: V-force is still by far the best lens system I've ever used when it comes to things like anti-fog and scratch resistance. My lens system has hardly ever fogged and never fogged to were I couldn't play.
DURABILITY: The mask itself is built of a very malleable plastic that cushions in upon impact, a very nice feature. The area of the mask around the eyes and ears is a hard plastic to prevent any serious injury and it is very well held together. I have played speedball, woodsball, and scenario games in this mask and it still works and looks great.
MAINTENANCE: This mask is just as easy to clean as it is to wear. To remove and clean the goggles, simple undo the clip on the inside of the lens hole, then pull up the outside clips and slide them out. The lens pop right out and are easy to clean. Just use hot water, things like Windex will eat the anti fog coating. To put them back in just pop the lens back into place, replace the outside clasps and re-insert the clip on the inside. The rest of the mask can just be washed with hot water. Replacement lens are easy to come by as they are the same fit for the shield and also come in a variety of colors.
Conclusion:
All in all this is a very well built mask and definitely worth the extra cash. It is an awesome peice of equipment.

Other VForce Gogs - Not as much coverage on models I've used.
JT Elite HeadShield - I don't like getting headshot...
Marker Setup:
Tippmann A5
PE Remote w/ Slide Check
PE 20 Bottle
Tac Cap
OpsGear G36C Grip, Rail and Stock
Bushnell 1x30mm Trophy red dot sight
Seals Action Gear single point sling
Knights Armament Company Vertical Fore Grip
Strengths:
Field of View
Clarity
Fit and Finish
Looks
Weaknesses:
I've heard it can scratch pretty easily, but I haven't yet.
Review:
I went to a local vet's night and as soon as I started gearing up realized I forgot my JT HeadShield at home. This had all the makings of a bad night right from the outset. After borrowing a couple of different VForce masks from the owners (none of which I was happy with) I finally just threw down the money for a Profiler from the proshop.
The mask itself is very comfortable, gives good chin coverage, a couple of different visor options, and looks totally badass, and comes with a mircofibre storage bag so you mask doesn't get dinged up in your gearbag.
Now onto the important stuff: Vision. Nothing prepared me (even the other VForce masks I tried before hand) for what I saw - - EVERYTHING! This is as close to not wearing a mask at all as you're probably ever going to come. The lens, despite being very convex, doesn't distort your vision, and offers full, natural peripheral vision. At no time did it even hint of fogging, despite being really hot, and I huff and puff when I play anyways.
This just may be the perfect paintball mask.
Conclusion:
Believe the hype, kids. This mask is a great product. The lens had an unparalleled level of peripheral vision, clarity and comfort. I've never given a 10 before, but this product deserves it.
Vision of whole field
Gets alot of bounces
Easy to remove lenses
Weaknesses:
Nothing at all
Review:
The v force profilers are really good goggles they protect your whole face not like the invisions. These are goggles where its easy to remove stuff like them lenses and the strap. The whole of field means that the lenses dont go one direction. You can breath in them and there really comfortable. There a little pricy but there worth the pay TRUST ME.
Conclusion:
These will help you in the game and they are worth the pay
PMI X-Ray (my little brother's mask)
V-Force Vantage (my FIRST mask)
Marker Setup:
Ion, eVLution II, 47/3000 Pure Energy HPA tank.
Strengths:
Extremely Comfortable.
Weaknesses:
The Price.
Review:
First of all, this mask is THE MOST COMFORTABLE mask i have ever worn. It's great-and i don't know if the V-Force people planned this, but the styrofoam on the inside, lining the goggles, when you sweat into that, you can take it off for like a couple of minutes, and put it back on-Viola! Ice Cold padded goggles.
Second-its got a small profile-i know this sounds like something you hear in an advertisement, but believe me-after i bought these mask, i never got hit in the mask again!
Those are the pluses...or whatever. The Positives if you will...
Here are the negatives.....negative really.
The only bad part about the Profilers are the steep price-if Mom is buying the goggles since they have to do with safety-get these, because you will be making out like a bandit.
Conclusion:
This wraps up my review of the V-Force Profilers. I give it a 9 because of all the great features, and only one negative-which can be overcome with a little hard work OR a little nagging/flattering. :D
Doesnt matter but here we go, Spyder Imagine 2k4, 14' Dye Ultralite, (acs) Bolt, egg 2 with y board, Dye throtle air system 71ci 4500psi, Dead on Bullet Drop, assualt Block, AKA 2-liter, hp valve, 15 degree springs, Lapco Feed neck...
Strengths:
Field of Vision, no fog what so ever, Light, Bounce Factor
Weaknesses:
poor neck and top of head Coverage
Review:
First of I would like to say, this is a great mask... hasnt ever fogged and saved my butt a few times cause i could see to the sides VERy Clearly. This is the greatest mask i have ever used out of all the masks of my day. Only proplem was that it doesnt cover your neck that great.... so if you take one in the jugguler its gonna sting a little but youl get over it ( Hey Its paintball ) I highly recomend this product to everyone from newbies... to fully evolved Pro's... sweet Collors too. Mine was Green to match my gun. Also ive been shot a few times in the ear and Mouth and the mask simply Bounced those evil balls off... And this Mask is very light you forget its even on sometimes.... which can be dangerous cause you might think its on when its really not and walk on to a field ( naw jk)
Conclusion:
I think this product is a must for all players... who simply dont want fog and want alot of Peripheral vision... Great Product...... ***Thanks VForce***

The second I got this mask, i loved it. I had just upgraded from a brass eagle mask. The first thing i noticed was how comfortable it was. Another thing I noticed was the field of vision that i had. Later on, I decided to get a new lens, I found that the lens was very easy and quick to change. Now for the field test. Hardly any paint broke on the mask, except for the lens. And the lens didn't fog at all!
Conclusion:
This was by far the best mask system I have ever used. The mask was comfortable, it didnt fog, the lens was easy to change, and paint bounces like crazy off of it!
It was well worth the money.
