well like the topic states, which mask do you use? i know this really shouldnt be in here, but there isnt an area for paintball accessories(maybe there should be). but if you feel it should be in a different area, please feel free to move it.
i just purchased a V-Force Profiler, havent used it yet. i bought it for the fact that it isnt supposed to fog at all, which ive always had a problem with. so im going to put this mask to the test. im 6'3" at 263 lbs, so if it wont fog with me, i dont see it fogging with anyone. after i get to use it, ill post on here if it fogged or not. i have a scott, that ive been using, came with my tippmann A-5, im not exactly sure which scott it is, but it did well till lastweek...it was very hot and humid (in alabama) and it fogged up on me bad, so i figured id get one that wasnt supposed to fog at all. so ill see. if anyone has a v-force profiler tell me what you think. and just tell me what kind of mask you use, and if you like it or not, and if it fogs. later |

I have a Profiler and I love it...It never fogs...The mask isn't as soft as advertisted...you can drop a paintball on it and it'll break...it isn't that big of a deal because in tournaments the paintball shells are so brittle it won't make a difference...but i was lead to believe it had a high rate of bounce like the dye invision...great comfy mask none the less -------------

I have a profiler, too. Like Shocker said, you don't get many bounces, but I love it anyways. ------------- I don't have a sig anymore

As soon as I have a job, I'll probably end up getting a different one. It's not very comfortable. |

| What are peoples views on the profiler, coverage wise? Like, do you think it is too small, about right, too big, anything? |
