This may be strange, but I've stuck with my "heavier" Wilson than these super duper light masks for 1 reason, that extended throat gaurd.

I like to use the plastic guard guard on my mask and that extended thing makes the plastic throat guard hang to low... but the extended throat guard on the mask isnt enough for me.. and that was affirmed when I saw an umpire taken off the field who took a "tweener" shot because he didnt use the plastic throat guard, believing that 1 inch extra length of the light mask was enough - it's not.
