Paintball mask will protect you, but paintballers don't... how to put that nicely... eff it, paintballers don't aim much. The mask will get between you and your sights and impede your ability to aim quite drastically. That's a personal choice though, they're safe. Just not practical in any way.
Still, you're off to a good start with gear!  |
Yeah, I was planning on getting new goggles anyways because the lens is tinted orange (easier to see when snowboarding) and its alright in the day time, but when it starts to get dark I can't see a thing out. As for the paintball mask, the neck part on mine is longer than most so it is even harder to aim with. Also it loves to fog up on me at the worst times.
I'm thinking an army of two mask possibly? Whats your opinion on these? Ive heard positive and negative response but I think it would look awesome with my gear as well as the boonie I ordered!
