visor or no

[Brown]

Where`s my visor?

I will be playing visorless from now on .....theres no scientific or tactical reason it just got shot off a few weeks back at congleton (on the field with the crashed spaceship up near the boggy sludge stuff so if anybody finds it you know where i post, it has a satan fish on it, thats the second time i have lost it the first was at N.P.F only to be found by someone playing on the opposite team the next time we played.....2 months later!!!!!)

Still rocking Vents, after all these years, and wouldn't take the visor off for anything. Of course, it's not made of that wiffleball plastic that the JT visors are-- mine's more like neoprene.

Number of bounces? Countless.

Vents??

Dude where do you get the replacement lenses??

Unless you bought a stack when they went out of business I'd bet on your lenses being a little less than safe now.

I & I sports from L.A. puts lenses up on eBay auction every now and again--- I have two fresh lenses, still in the plastic-- that cost me $1.99 each. They are single vision, but trying to find a Thermal is... well... not likely.

have u ever tryed to play the snake or any liedowen with a viser on. i have no fun at all. i was crawling in the snake and i didnt see the guy standing in the stand up beside the snake because of it.*that field had a wierd set up*

No way keep it off looks so much better...It does make u a bigger target and i would hate it when im crawling around or rapping around bunkers but if rain calls use it or tape up the holes but im not sure if it would really help when water gets on the lense and plays up the vision..?

I have a clear lens so when it's a very bright and the sun is in my eyes (usually the first and last few games each day) I'll put my visor on. Other than that though, it's no visor for me.

I never play with a visor and the reasons for that are as follows.

Personally having a few extra inches may be great in some areas but not on your goggles, as it means that you are visible earlier when you look over the field.

Secondly, the visor does not let you play as tight against a barricade as the visor means you have to sit back 2 inches or so, and that can make all the difference.

Thirdly, when i see a player, psycologically i always associate players playing with visors as resemblng punters. The visors make the player look far less intimidating and less able as a player. Despite the fact that they may not be. Any edge that you get is valuable before the game starts, if you can intimidate the other team into thinking they will lose before the game then you have won a small battle. This is one way Dynasty are so successful, teams think they will lose before they even start the game. Granted thats cos of their hisory, but they would not look as intimidating with huge peaks on their Flex 7s

Keep your visor on, I've got a set of scott goggles which don't have a visor and it's a right pain in the arse when it rains becuase the water gets into the vents on the top and all I can see is water woobling about in my goggles.

How often do you play in the rain? i hardly ever do.
