i have also heard that the pmi (the mask i am leaning towards buying) tends to slide off of your face because of it having only one headstrap. if anyone has experience with this mask plz tell me if this is true.

No idea about any of those listed. I use a V-force (the plain basic one). I have no problems with fogging (my main problem is condensation from sweating to much) or with it coming off. It only has one strap. I think one of the ones you might be thinking of are the full head helmet/goggle (not sure who makes it). It has a chin strap.
