u'll c me n my matrix moves then!!!hahahahahahaha

Proto switch EL is a pretty good buy for starters
but of course you could go with Proto Switch FS too..

and as a Dye sponsored player, i would have to say that the Dye Invision i3 Pro Kick ASSES ! ! !

OOOooo... action...

OKay, the reason why I asked for brand reccomendations is because I'm a newb remember?

I couldn't understand badman's post onwards.

Anyways, I see it this way. If I'm going to spend Rm150 on something that's not really good, I'd rather not waste my Rm150 and double it to get me something that's good and can last.

I really need a good mask, the on-site helmets stink, oily, and fog so bad, you'd believe your in a foreign country. So ya, price isn't the issue. I just need to know the difference between brands. And Features of Goggles, I should be looking out for just incase some fck wants to con my hard earned money.

I hanve't seen any paintball mags I could refer too though...so I'm sorry if I keep bugging you pro's....><

jz drop by to any of ur friendly paintball stores..
paintballers don really rip each other off...
they are stores opened by players themselves so feel safe u wont get con..
where u residing at..? recommend u one near ur place

sorry if u couldn't understand what i wrote, it's just me lah.. not that good with words..

yeap, proto EL is a good mask, been using it for the past one year, before switching to ehem... dye I3 pro..
proto Switch series (EL, FS, axis) is a simple & easy to maintain mask - the fastest lense-change so far, the diff between those 3 is the face mask ( the [art covering ur face) EL is hard & the rest 2 are softer & lighter, supposedly to minimise ball-break when hit.. EL is the cheapest, around RM150, axis is RM350, i think.. & FS is somewhere in the middle..
EL comes with a single lense.. the FS & axis comes with a thermal-lense (double layered) which would minimise the chance of fogginga, nevertheless, all using the same size of lenses, meaning it's inter-changable - u can fit a thermal-lense of FS/axis onto the EL..

dye invision series (invision, I3 & I3 pro) are good mask, it's one of the lightest in the market but lense change is hell - took me hours to dismantle & re-assemble the first time... price starts at 300+ if not mistaken with I3 pro close to 400

have no experience with other mask, maybe the rest of the guys can fill u up on this..

hope this helps.. provided u could undertsand what i'm trying to say here lah..

Good explaination badman.

for very secure lens, yes, Dye's i3 have one of the most secure systems that would make sure the lens will never pop-out accidentally.

but as badman said earlier, it does take some time to dismantle it. but it's just a case of getting use to it.. i guess

ive been using Vforce profiler for 2-3 month now... i luv the mask... comfy, simple design... no fog at all... i think the retail price is around rm400... but 1 thing for sure.. dunno where to get the parts... been looking for the strap for sumtime now...

Proto switch FS - been using it a couple of time (still new ma ) dun really like the way the lense and the frame system.. and the thermal lense gve me a heart attack when i 1st clean it when there's a few drop of water get into the layer i think the price i s around rm280-rm350....


JT proflex(pinjam) - comfy and nice design.... the flex really the key feature of this mask...huhuhu... maybe going to get this mask if can...hehehhe

wakakak..take care of it bro..!!
the strap..u can get jt straps n cut off ur current straps..sew the new one on..=)
no nid use back ori vforce

invest in a mask that u'll want to use 4 a few years la!

use wat?? underwear strap haa??..LoL.... need a new strap la..bcoz goggles strap got that cylicone thingy that non-slip...huhuhu

hi guys i'm new here...i'm looking for a mask...any recommendation? i was thinking of buying over the on-site mask....cheap mar!

Best to test the mask before buying. Some mask might not be suitable for some ppl.

OMG, thanks badman!!! This is EXACTLY what I need. Heck, maybe I should just ask you to come along when buy a mask. ONe thing though, if Proto mask lenses are easy to change, does it mean when I get a headshot, will it move or dislodge?

Thanks zzub!! I'll check out what you said soon!

Ummm, dude, I need some nice kind soul like badman to explain like he just did above.

*quick, to the badmobile!*


Look above, this page dude. I just asked the same question


ch1ck3n >> I stay at Bangsar. The reason why I asked for help is I dunno the difference. IF you asked me what's the difference, between Intel and AMD, I can tell you. Same thing applies here really. I just dun wanna waste my cash.

exkay>> Are you saying that lenses are suppsoe to come off? I know we're suppose to clean it, but I still have vague sketches about that.

Thanks everyone! I've got a nice lil list going on now. All I gotta do is find WerdnaHol. Lolx.

i've used the proto for over a year to many tourneys, the lense won't come off under harsh condition.. it's the locking system that made it easy to change - this varies among manufacturers...

i'd say just go over to the shop & have that boy bring out every type of face they have & u can choose from there, after testing each of it... yes, they are very patient ppl...

they are suppose to come off when you want to clean them rite?

if the lense doens't ocme out how to clean lar? myself using a JT and i like it very much but the problem is that changing the lense will cost you a bomb which i need to fork out now...no moeny yet might just wanna buy a new mask.... I STILL LOVE MY CURRENT MASK

JT la..
u noe JT JT JT JT..
