The two most prominent features of the renowned SKUL goggle ystem are hte one-piece molded design and the remarkable image clarity provided by the high quality lens. This system features anti-fog, and anti-scratch lenses, one piece molded construction, and slanted vents. The mak is flexible enough to discourage paintballs from breaking on impact, while ridges in the design provide a rigidity needed for proper protection. With solid protection for the forehead, temples, eyes, ears, chin and mouth, the SKUL combines an aggressive look with a reasonable price tag.

This mask is pretty good but if your a rugged outoor player like me sometimes if you roll our dive in the brush it falls off if its not to tite wich is a problem because the strap loosens up during play unless you never move your head. BUT it has looks and the bottom has bounce.
Conclusion:
It does what its supposed to do but can fall off if you are as rugged as I am and the strap loosens during play although I fixed that problem with duct tape. (Duct tape fixes everything!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

JT Spectra (Weird oily substance on foam)
VForce Vantage with thermal lense (amazing product, highly recommended)
Marker Setup:
98 Custom with SmartParts Progressive barrel, remote line, and Tapco CAR Stock
Strengths:
-Good protection
-looks cool
Weaknesses:
-Lense scratches easily
-Crappy glue on the foam
Review:
Good Stuff: There really isn't much. It protects well and it does look kinda cool.
On to the bad stuff. The lense scratches easily and if you wash the inside with a little water just to get the dirt and stuff off, the anti-fog treatment disappears. Also, I've been using this mask for a little over 6 months and the glue on the foam is losing its grip. A lot of people are saying that you can get new lenses for the Skul, but I haven't seen any lenses that fit.
Conclusion:
Although the mask works well for a while, as time goes on things start to fall apart. Since you can't get lenses for it anywhere you really can't do much to fix the problems. The thing fogs terribly and the foam falls out. Seriously if it comes with your gun like mine did, great. It'll tide you over for a while till you can get a decent mask like a VForce Vantage with a thermal lense. At 30 bucks, it only costs a little more than pocket change to buy a mask that I guarantee will never fog on you.

Fogs like crazy
very little padding
foam falls off after a while
Review:
This mask is decent. I recommend getting rain-x anti fog for this mask. The bounce factor is good. But getting hit in the goggles can certainly make a nice little scratch mark on it. im still waiting to lose my eye on when the thing cracks. Im now going to take up space. sdl;fhj asdhf;l hjaksdjf;lkajs;dlkfj0w9ufkasd adif;lkahs ds;ofh adokjfh asidhf ahsdih dih oiashdfoih iasdf;oih 0iha i sdoihaoihdfh i adhfoiha ihdfoihireo aihsdif h i aidhfoah difho;shd

Review:
When I first got the mask I was a little skeptical on how well it would last. Although I have not had it long, I have noticed that it is a very durable, solid piece of work. Some people here say it scratches easily, but if your not ruff with it, and take good care of your equipment (like me) you won't have this problem.
A few weeks ago me and my friends went to a local field and played for around 5 hours. Two of my friends had JT's, and me and my other friend had the Game Face SKUL Mask. My two friends with the JT's both had very bad fogging problems. However, me and my other friend, with the Game Face SKUL Mask had ZERO fogging problems. Now, I live in the Deep south of Louisiana, and the humidity was high that day, but still the guys with the SKUL mask had no fog problems. However, if you happen to have a problem with fogging a simple anti-fog spray should fix your problems.
When I was playing I took a hit from a guy right between the eyes. Once I got off of the field I was worried that some damage might have been done to the mask, to my delight no damage was done, at least as far as I can tell.
Also, the field of view on this mask is very nice.
Conclusion:
I would rate this mask very well. I would recommend this to anyone. Pro or not, this mask is very good and reliable. I have not had a single problem with it, and what's better, its VERY cheap!

Review:
What can I say it came with my marker so I figured I'd give it a try. Liked from day one cause I was thinking, "Hey this kind of looks like some kind of take on the Predator mask." I would say it's somwhere between the Predator mask and Reptile from Mortal Kombat. Either way it looks really cool. Tried it out on Friday night at a muggy indoor arena. Fogged up a little in my first game so I sprayed a little anti-fog spray inside and it was crystal clear for the rest of the night. This thing feels great, I never noticed it once I put it on, I locked down the two plastic tabs to get it snug and it was perfect. The field of vision was fine too.
I noticed when I was cleaning it up at home that it had a small scratch. Likely from being in a bag with my unthreadprotected CO2 tank. OOops.
*UPDATE*
Got my Thermal lens a month ago (16USD right from GameFace) and now this mask is unbelievable. It never fogged much before, now it is perfectly clear. It's still comfortable after a year and a half of use. The foam falls off easily but they have this great invention called "Super Glue". Use Super Glue, all good. That's the bad... seriously. It's still incredibly comfortable, great range of vision and looks great. The Carbon Fibre looks even better! Definitely a great mask.
Conclusion:
It might not be perfect cause it doesn't have a visor or a reflective lens. Oh cry me a river. It's an awesome starter mask.
I'm getting the silver thermal radient sometime in the next few months ;0).
If you're new to the sport and you can find one of these, you're in luck, great deal. Better yet buy a Bone Daddy and get it for free.
