best mask to buy under £80. vforce or e-vents

[jamesmacc]

hey folks. been paintballing a few times over the years and now i have joined a club. im planning to buy a bt omega hopefully soon. first things first though im after a decent mask, every cheapy one i have used when i havepaid to go for a half days paintball have steamed up realy bad with me breathing, id hate to think what they would be be like with a full days paintballing. the masks that ive seen that look good are v force profiler and the e-vents 09 mask. if anyone else can recomend a good mask then im open to opinion. i dont realy want to spend more than £60-80 as its only a once montly club and once i get my own marker i will use it in my own woodland with friends.
cheers
james

thanks for that. unfortunatly most people at the club have rented googles so dont have many to try. its a toss up between v force profiler, empire e vents, v force grillz

alright mate

ive got a vents avatar mask in grey/black that im looking to offload for £30 posted,almost the same as the E-vents but it doesn't have the soft ears but it is super bouncy

E-vents are a great mask a bit price but your paying for the quality! You can pick them up here second hand quite cheap, but i would strongly suggest trying them on in a store to see what they are like as you are going to be wearing them for a long while.

Gotta be honest if you're willing to go to 80£ i'd break the bank and just get an i4, you can pick one up for around £90 and I have to be honest, I've had a fair ammount of masks and tried a fair amount of masks and the i4's are the best thing I've ever worn. Visibility is unreal (like you're not even wearing a mask) and sweating in them just doesn't happen. Brilliant mask system.
Failing that, you need something with a thermal lens. I quite like the JT flex 8's they're incredibly good for their price. Not a huge fan of the Events, an ok mask but I don't like them can't really tell you why, just personal choice I guess.

Fair enough i love the I4's but they are just a little too small so thats why i have my E-vents!
