I'm looking for a mask that's very flexible in the front. One that will move a little when I pull the stock in tight. Any suggestions?

I've always been partial to Vforce masks, great masks at a great price. They have great antifog/antiscratch lenses. I have the Vantage, which is somewhat flexible in the front, very flexible in the sides it set me back about $35. The profiler is a more expensive version of the vantage, It has a larger field of view, similer flexiblity. I've also heard good things about their newest mask GRILL. It is a very low profile mask and I've heard great things about the field of view and the high resolution, low distortion lense. There are several others but these are the only one's that I know have good front flexibility. My sister playes with the Morph, it comes with solid throat protection and good field of view, but pretty hard in front and most of the sides.


EDIT: If you want it so you can pull in tight with the stock you need more side flex than front flex. I would recomend the Vantage, but the field of view is a little skimpy.

Best thing I can tell you is check out Vforce, I wouldn't play with anything else.

^I agree with Gotpaint92 regarding the masks. I have tried on all models that VForce has made, and I used to use the Vantage. I currently have a Profiler, and a Morph is on its way.

I even like the Grill; I hated it until I put it on, but VForce once again delivered.

I say your best bet, at least going with VForce, is the Morph. It provides signifigantly more protection than the Profiler, but still maintains good visibility.

If you decide on something besides VForce, I would start looking into the Proflex or the Flex 8, both made by JT. I personally feel not entire safe in a Proflex, but it definitely WILL bend. A word of advice, but from what I have seen and felt (in the store, so maybe someone first hand experience would be better), the Empire masks such as the Helix, Cylus, Avatar and Events are not overly bendable.

That being said, I also would not feel comfortable in anything but a VForce. However, regarding the Vantage, unless it is your first mask, it will probably be a step backward in terms of visibility and comfort.

When I get my CCI Phantom, hopefully soon, and start playing stock class, I may look into a new mask. I love the woods, but something about stock class in a speedball setting appeals to me; I may get a Dye Invision i3 Pro (or equivalent) to keep my head profile down. That would be a luxury item though, as I think my current masks are going to be more than adequate.

Final Verdict: Don't neccesarily buy a Morph, but at least try it on in the store if you can. Also, just because the VForce Shield is the same basic design, remember that the entirety of the Shield is made of harder plastic, where the Morph has the entire lower face part made of flexible rubber.

Hope this helps.

Cheers.

Look into the vents avatar-it is very soft on the sides w/ chhek cushions on the inside and still has a rigid piece in front of your nose and mouth. Very low profile without the visor and has not fogged up on me yet. Also, clean-up is easy with the 2 tab retainer system. Just a suggestion.

depending on your budget
vforce grill
E-vents
JT proflex
are my list of favorites
the JT are old school but they hold there own against the newer mask and are reasonably priced
i regret getting rid of mine
im using the grillz as of right now options that it has make other mask seem obsolete.

Youre using the grill? Does it reduce the distance between your cheek and the stock, compared to the Profiler?

i use a jt flex with the thermal lens,it is very flexible and breaths well.its flexibility has kept me in several games and never seems to be in the way.there are flashier masks but the jt flex holds it own in my opinion

The el cheapo Kingman Java mask has a very soft, rubbery grill. Not a comfortable mask, though. Came with my old Spyder Sonix Pro kit.

You sure that's a Morph and not a Shield? My Morph is completely soft over the whole thing.
