Posts in this thread refer to the Wilson Chrome Moliben mask as being "new", and one poster discusses his purchase of one this Spring as putting him in the category of being an "early adopter".
I have a Wilson Chrome Moliben mask that is going into its fourth Spring season, so I would have a hard time referring to this model as being a "new" one. Mine does not have wraparound pads (at least I don't think it does), so is this a design change that has people calling it "new", or has Wilson modified the mask in some way such that it is different from the one that I have been wearing for three years now? Just a matter of curiosity to me.
I like the view that the mask provides nearly as much as the view afforded by the AllStar2300 hockey style mask that was given to me as a Christmas present about 14 months ago. That, combined with its light weight, and no damage to date, make it my choice over the AllStar HSM and other masks.

I believe it was introduced originally with the normal, traditional mask pads. Then after about a year or so, the new "wrap around" Wilson mask pads appeared on the mask. It is also called the "new view" or "Davis new view mask" because of the closer mask frame. Same mask, though.
