JT X-Fire OD [similar field of vision, but less protection]
Marker Setup:
Tippmann A5
JCS Spyder to A5 Barrel Adapter
Smart Parts 14" Teardrop
Pure Energy Coiled Remote
Pure Energy 88/45 HPA tank
Tapco M249 SAW stock
Strengths:
Full Head Coverage
Field of Vision
Comfort
Doesn't Fog
Weaknesses:
Large Profile
Mouth piece falls off
Hard to clean
A bit tight
Review:
This is my first set of goggles, I bought it because of the full head coverage. Mostly it was the look that I liked, the extra protection was just a bonus. It doesn't restrict vision too much and its so comfortable that you almost forget that you have it on. I have never had a problem with the lens fogging up.
The only downsides are that the thing is huge and really gets in the way of aiming if you have a stock. The silver accent on the front of the mouth falls off and gets lost so you might as well just throw it away right out of the box. There are lots of joints where different panels overlap to form the whole helmet, and paint likes to get in there and stay. I have my goggle strap as loose as it will go and a bit of pressure is noticeable at the forehead. Also the black color stands out in the woods, but a couple coats of green and tan Krylon will fix that problem.
Conclusion:
Good: protection
field of vision
doesn't fog up
Bad : large profile
decorative accent on the mouth falls off
cleaning is difficult
mask fits tight
Overall I am very pleased with my headshield, its a good first or second mask for anybody. If you're tired of getting shot in the head you may want to consider the JT Elite Headshield.
Full head protection
Good for beginners
Price good, but YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR
Weaknesses:
Lens scratches easily
Can’t replace lens
Foam inside could improve
FOGS TOO MUCH
Review:
Well, when I first got this mask, it was great for a while, but not too much later in my paintball experience, it started to scratch and fog A LOT, even with fog resistant.
I also had a lot of people say they saw a huge, round black thing floating above the ground, so that’s how they found me. Even though there is no such thing as an "invisible mask", but this is like a big black bowling ball as a head.
and one game, it fogged up in the first 5 minutes, it fogged up so bad I couldn't see my teammate SITTING NEXT TO ME!! Just be sure to use a good brand of fog resistant on the lens. If you take extremely good care of it, it will last you like 2 or three years. I have a friend that has had it for two years, and it has some scratches that you can see while looking through it, but you can at least play with it. I cant even play with mine any more.
Conclusion:
Id recommend this for beginners, but if you’re going to be serious about paintball, get a V-Force or something like that. But there are way worse masks out there though
Java raven; does not protect you anywhere near as much as elite headshield
Marker Setup:
Spyder victor II
J&J S2 ceramic barrel
32 Degrees E-grip
12 volt revvy w/ x-board
20 oz CO2 tank w/ butt plate
Strengths:
Protects whole head
Good field of vision
Does not get too hot
Weaknesses:
A little fogging
Review:
This is a very good mask. It is fairly cheap and does what it is supposed to do; protect your noggin. It does fog but I guess that can be fixed with a fan or a thermal lens from what I read in other reviews. One bad thing is I got hit on the top of the head and I never knew about it until after the game.
Conclusion:
Buy this if you want to protect your head and don't want to spend too much money.

Strengths:
Full Protection
Okay non fog lense
Weaknesses:
None
Review:
I got this helmet before my paintball gun 4 months ago. I like it a lot because of the full protection. You have a pretty good sight range and they don't fog up. I am thinking about getting a new lense to make it even better. The ventalation is pretty good too.
Conclusion:
Get this mask if you want to protect the back of you head!
This mask will fully protect your head and face.
It doesnt fog up.
Weaknesses:
this mask is gigantic. this mask is heavy. This mask doesnt fit your head good.
Review:
I have used this mask many times during paintball and airsoft. Each time i play i regret owning it. This is the most uncomfortable mask I have ever worn and dont reccomend it to anyone. The foam in it is itchy and doesnt feel soft. when i put it on i feel like my mouth is where my nose should be and my eyes need to be lower , it doesnt fit my head right. When i move my head around i can feel the masks massive weight all over my neck and it hurts sometimes.
Conclusion:
This mask is good for people who are frightened by getting shot in the head but terrible for anyone wanting to have a good time playing paintball. i think that you should not get a full head mask, especially this one.
none, but im prety sure a dome shot without full head pretection hurts
Marker Setup:
don't have my own yet... ill get one soon
Strengths:
Awesome
intimidating with the right mods
Weaknesses:
Nothing
Review:
I have this mask, and i love it.
I put pieces of camo cloth on the little holes on the baks of it, and it looks like the mask. the predators have from alien vs. predator.
My friends were a little shoked to c me running at them with this mask on, very intimidating.
Conclusion:
Get it, its cool.
9 because everything can be improved on.
Only rentals. . .this is more comfortable, but the range of sight is the same.
Strengths:
Easy to mount netting for ghillie suit onto it.
Comfortable.
Weaknesses:
It gets hot in there
It's kinda bulky
Review:
I love this helmet. I suffered from 2 skull fractures and MAJOR concussions almost a year ago. When my friend tried to get me into paintballing, which he did, the only way my Mom would let me play was if I wore this helmet. The field of vision is impressive, but you lose just a little bit of vision on the sides (nothing turning your head can't fix).
I thought that this mask was really comfortable, but my friend disagreed. It iwll fit some people perfectly, and with be painful for other people. I suggest that you try one on before you buy it.
After I got it, I decided to make a ghillie suit and I found it very easy to mount the netting to the helmet. It works better than any hood I've ever seen. I would recommend this to you if you wanna make a ghillie suit.
Conclusion:
I like it a lot, but it's getting an 8 out of 10 because of the amount of bulk it adds to your head. It takes the pain out of it, but you might end up getting hit more.

Review:
Ok the the first problem i had with this mask that it is like HUGE u have a huge profile when ur wearing this thing even for woods ball i only play woodsball when i was using this wask i got hit in the head like crazy and there is no bounces like the vantage or profiler
next weakness is the price in canada if u go to canadian tire and buy it it won on sale for 75 bucks save the extra 25 and buy a profliler
next weekenss the girls dont go for guys with this mask it kinda makes u look like a sissy
also it makes u look kinda like the alien from alien ressurection because of the weird chin
umm it foggs like crazy in woodsball and has little ventelation
Conclusion:
Save ur money and buy a profiler or a vantage u will be much happier
Comfortable fit
Good vision
Doesn't fog
Full head protection
Not very expensive
Weaknesses:
Foam is a little irritating
Review:
I have used this headshield and it is great! The only thing that is bad is that the foam in the helmet is irritating, if it really bothers you that much, you can just cut it a bit. I don't mind it, it just feels weird. Other than that, great buy.
