| It's just a new styling for their full head mask. Hey, if it gets someone over their fear of whatever, and gets someone new into the sport, let them wear it. It could be uglier. |

Maybe little kids who are scared to play now have a chance? I don't
know about you, but when I'm sticking out of my bunker shooting, the
most likely place you would get shot is, your gun, head area, or gun. Or the finger shot which kills you.

It just kills 2 birds with one stone. Wearing a mask that covers the top of your head. ------------- <Removed sig for violation of Clause 4 of the New Sig Rules> |

That's been out for a while. It would provide good protection if you were afraid of getting hit in the head and being knocked out.
I just wear a bandana... Later -------------

I hate those full face masks. They are for wussies afraid to get shot. If I ever get a chance to bunker a person with one, or sneak up on the person, then I am going to shoot them in the neck. ------------- TIPPMANN 98 CUSTOM 14" Progressive barrel 32* Black gel grips BT-16 Double trigger Pen Spring Mod X-core Expansion Chamber Vertical Adapter |

Why would you do such a thing? Just to make sure that the whole world knows that you are an insecure bully? |

Pretty much. "haha, I'm a better person than you, I shot your neck cause you wore a full head mask, wuss!!!" Real good attitude. As I said, if it gets someone into the sport cause they dont have to worry about something, then let them do it. |

I'm with choopie on this one. If a person wants a little more protection, let them have it. If they are afraid of getting hit in the head, or maybe have some medical condition with their head, then this will allow them to play. There's a major league baseball player named John Olerud that at one time in his life had a brain aneurysm. Now whenever he goes out to the field, he wears a protective helmet instead of his cap because he promised himself and his family that he would do it. Do the other players make fun of him? No. Do pitchers aim at his neck with pitches? No. Why? Because they respect him for doing that so he could play the game he loves. If someone wears a full head mask, we should treat them as any other player. They just want to play. ------------- 98 Custom HK G36C Appearance 70/4500 Dye Throttle Ricochet AK Polished Internals Aluminum Power Tube Dye Sticky 3 Grips Next on the list: ??? |

pretty good paint flow too i bet. one shot to the mask and your teeth are pink. i dont see what problem you have with someone wearing one, it doesnt hurt you. I dont wear one but, why push someone away from the game by degrading the equipment they use? ------------- Buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo |

Paintball masks are designed to protect. Though it may look goofy, it
might save some kid from getting welts on the back of his head.
