youd be best with a new mask. the worst thign that could happen is your mask falling off and getting hit in the eye. Before you buy next time see if the shop has one you can try on.

Tighten the strap? and if that doesnt work try wearing a hat or headband underneath, or get a mask that fits

What mask do you have?  If it's just an old Scott mask, it will do that.  Spend a little more money and get a new mask.

The elite pro shield with full head coverage. I love the mask. It just needed a thermal lens (mine does) and it can be very good. I wish that its view was bigger though.

If tightening the strap doesn't work, go to your local pro shop and ask to try on several maskes to find one that fits.

Do you have a link to where to get a good thermal lense for it.  I have the "helmet" too.  I would like another mask to use also, but on a tight budget.
