Fog prone mask
Review:
I love this mask. For something <$80 it is wonderful. The shots i recieve are always vital, never in the limbs. The head shot is what i am always recieveing. My dad bought this mask for me while he was gone and i love it. The mask will fog very slightly, but it is much better than others i have had which fog sitting on top of your head. If your really worried about getting shot while fogged, spend 20 bucks on a thermal lens ang your good to go. It makes you feel better about yourself too, wanting to try more things. Youll hold ground better, and retreat less. This mask make you feel like a pro. its kinda funny being its just a mask, but trust me. It works. While your being safe and having fun, youll look good in it too. The mask is very sylish and even come with a decal sheet for your gun/mask. Some are cut to fit, but i couldnt find a good place to put them. There is no adjusting either. The elastic that you usually tighten onto your head is attached to a plate in the back. It doesnt look near as good in the box because the plate is invisible. This tightens on your head and holds it on tight. The mask also has a neck clip to keep it secure.
*********UPDATE********* The mask has been used at least 15-20 times and has yet to let me down. Taken several face shots w/o harm. All i ever do is use a little plexus before,after shots, and after games and it is as good as new. hope this helps!!
Conclusion:
Buy this product. It is safe, affordable, and stylish. I love it and i think you will too. Buy a thermal lens while your at it, or look and see if yours comes with it. Newer ones are better too so try to buy it not unused, but at a store. i give it a ten forgiving it for a slightly fogging lens

Review:
Nice goggles cheap to found em at wall mart for 30 bucks. Only ting is i have to wash them in my sink to get all the paint out of the little holes. They are comfy couse it rests on your head so it doesnt fall down when your playing a game where your running around a lot.
I got this earlier this year and it been good. It fogs up sometime though to the point where you can't see you fingers much at all. other then the fogging it a good mask. Its very comfortable, light, and covers a lot of your head. It's cheap which isn't a bad thing.
Conclusion:
Very good mask. Only bad thing is it fogs up sometimes. Other than that is good.

Weaknesses:
People might make fun of you for using it
Review:
IMO there are three places a paintball player never wants to get hit... The groin, the neck, and the back of the head. This goggle system saves your head. It has complete head protection and take it from someone with experience...you need it. I have taken a shot to the head and it hurt...A LOT. I have had people make fun of me for using it, but it doesn't matter. Just wait till you get hit in the head, then you will decide that this product is for you. I have actually tested this product. I put the mask on and had my friend shoot me in my face, both sides, the back, and the top. We did this from several different distances. 10' , 20' 30' and 40'. The worst part was the jolt(and the anticipation), but that cant be avoided.
Conclusion:
If you have ever taken a shot to exposed head or never want to then this goggle system is for you.
Ok so I was all excited about paintball and I made the mistake of rolling down to the local walmart to buy a mask. I saw this and figured hey it looks pretty cool. I played with it for a while and when i finally went to try out for my first team I quickly was given the nicknames crash helmet or storm trooper. Now I mean it was a cool helmet at first but that thing is DEATHLY hot. THe pads when u start to sweat get really nasty. The lens didn't fog much but it did stain pink after my first game no matter what I did the pink would not go away! Finally I gave up and bought a different mask. This is a good mask only if you are unsure about paintball and don't want to go out and commit financially or if you wanna be a weird looking thing for Halloween.
Conclusion:
Again only if you are trying to test out the waters of paintball should you buy this mask other than that it serves no purpose
It dosn't hurt on the top unless it is really close
Weaknesses:
Bulky. Can't get a bounce off of it. Fogs alot and.
Review:
I don't like this mask if i get hit in the ac of it the mask spins on your head. The masks moves where ever you get hit and i have it really tight. It has a really cheap uncomfortable It left a rash. It is very bulky which is not good for speed ball which is what i play. Fin comes off if it gets hit.
Less vision range
Rough foam
Bad if you have glasses
Review:
This is a fine mask. It looks nice and covers your whole head if you are tired of getting pegged in the head round after round of speedball. It dosn't come with thermal lense so just replace the regular lense when you need to replace your lense. The mask is comfortable except the foam is a bit rough and might irritate your face when you are putting it on or wear the mask for a long time. I just attached some clothe to the foam and it dosn't bother me. The field of vision is also less than a lot of more expensive masks. This mask also dosn't bounce balls (but most balls break on my head anyways, lol)
Conclusion:
All in all, this is a decent mask for the price. A little self motivation and adjustments will make this a comfortable mask.

smart parts micro gauge
spyder T-board
Strengths:
Full head protection
Ok looks
Good field of view
Price
Weaknesses:
Size (but its not that bad)
Review:
This is a great mask for the price. You no longer have to worry about being shot in the top or in the back of the head, because if you do get shot in the head it doesn't hurt. The only place around your head that you have to worry about is the back of you neck.
Conclusion:
I would recommen this mask to anyone who is sick of getting shot in the head, or doesnt want to experience getting shot in the head.
Covers whole head so it don't hurt if you get hit in head
Weaknesses:
Is made of hard plastic which means you break paintballs
Foam isn't the best
Review:
This goggle system is a great one for someone starting paintball, its a little big if you have a small head and is not something for a pro player, the foam isn't that comfortable but you'll live. The hard plastic causes many breaks but it also makes the head shots hurt less.

Strengths:
Covers you whole head.
Weaknesses:
Fogs very easilly.
Doesn't stop sweat.
Foam itches.
Review:
New lenses are a must and with these this becomes a very good mask.
I have used and liked this mask for 4 or 5 months but a few weeks ago it started to itch and fog really easy which becomes frustrating because it isn't the easiest mask to clean.
Conclusion:
If you afraid 2 get hit in the head then this is the mask for you.
