V-Force Profiler, hands down. There's an awesome sale on at http://www.canadianpaintball.com - http://www.canadianpaintball.com where you cang et them for $80. They're the most comfortable one out there, beautifully good lense, and are damned sexy in general. You can't justify not buying one at this price. Out of curiosity, where in Canada are you? ------------- "Abortion is not "choice" in America.

| Speed or Woods? The Vforce Profiler and Dye Invision are top of the line speedball masks, Woods I would look at the Vforce Morph or a Proto Switch FS. Go to a shop that carries alot of masks and try on a bunch. See what you like and what fits the best. |

Bah. The profiler is fine for woods as well- it's what I play. Granted it's a tad more visible, but in the woods the visible clarity it gives you is worth the enhanced visibility of the amsk. Besides, just get it in green, and tie a few bits of dark rag through the loops for a simple ghillie effect. If you're really concerned, a bit of hunter's camouflage face paint smeared on the mask itself will wash of easily- jsut avoid the lens. ------------- "Abortion is not "choice" in America.

Kingston, Ontario. Canadian Paintball should ship pretty quickly to you- they're in BC too, I believe. The sale on the profiler is only until the 15th, and it's a bloody good deal. I'd suggest ou grab it... ------------- "Abortion is not "choice" in America.

^^ That is the ONLY case I have EVER heard of a Vforce fogging up. Take it with a grain of salt. ------------- "Abortion is not "choice" in America.

I agree with Brihard. I have NEVER heard of anyone ever complain of thier Profilers fogging up. I would say go with the Profilers. So far I have never had any fogging with my Profilers the only thing that fogs is my glasses.
The Invision are good goggles but they do have some problems. The first problem is the lenses are harder to change in the Invisions. Second is the bottom of the goggles are sometimes to short and it doesn't fully protect the chin. I have read in a few places where people have had to get stiches in the chin and lower lip because the Invision didn't fully protect the the lower jaw area. For just about the same price (or a little cheaper depending on where you look) you can get profilers which IMO are better. The Profilers have a easy quick change lenses system. You pull the quick disconnect and the lenses pop right out. The Profilers fit very tight and prevent any movement of glasses. With my old goggles My glasses would fly all over the place but because the profilers fit so tightly on the head it prevents the glasses from bouncing around. Do not be fooled though, while the goggles fit tightly around the head they are very comfortable and conform right to your head. They give great visibilty, venelation and they allow for easy talking. You should go to the proshop and see if they have both and try both on but I reccomend the Profilers over the Invision. -------------

I heard this and have tried it if you get your mask and put toothpaste on the inside lens rub it around and then wash it out it will keep your googols from fogging up i have tried it works. I don't know how but it does if you go swimming you can do the same thing to the googols. Hope that helps someone helped me. I don't what brand i have heard though that the v-force is good.

Thanks Latroca, I will have to try that. I was so bummed, I didnt even go through a case of paint in the 26 hour because of my fogging issues. Yes it was a miserable weekend, it rained from Sat. night till when we packed up on Sunday. -------------

| Im sorry but dont you hate when people butcher a common saying/ Money is out of the question? WTF does that mean?basicly that means you have no money and need to either steal or fight someone to the death for thier mask! I think what you mean to say is "money is not an issue" |

V-Force Profiler, without a doubt. Its an excellent mask, wide view, no fogging at all, fits comfortably (even with glasses), and has bounce areas. ------------- -Wild |

Oh yeah, that's another thing about the Profiler- PERFECT peripheral vision. I can't see any of the amsk out the sides; the lens is bloody amazing. ------------- "Abortion is not "choice" in America.

I don't give a crap about getting any cheaters-bounce, and I want the most protection I can get.
I've been flossing the V-Force Shield for well over a year now, and it still hasn't ever fogged up on me. If money is no object, get the Profiler.....I don't see any advantage of a DYE mask to a V-Force. |

Invisions are extremely UN comfortable...especially if you have a fat head (like me). The profiler is very cool. I would go with that.
I personaly use an old JT proteus cameleon and I love it. I think you can find those on sale now. Later -------------

Profiler is so comfortable, you forget your wearing a mask. Once, I was leaving the paintball field, and I was making sure I had everything before leaving, and I couldn't find my mask. Anyways, if money is out of the question, then the Profiler is the only way to go. ------------- -Wild |
