For so long (basically forever) I wore my mask like I did back in my HS and college catching days - nice and comfy snug. I never took the concussion or teeth-breaking foul (simply the luck of the draw).
But after reading your posts the past month or so I've gone to wearing the mask (Plus+ and an older DynaLite) much more loosely. It was a learning curve that's for sure. But now I kind of like being able to yank the thing off without my cap flying in another direction (that should have been my first clue that snugger is not always better). And on the days my contacts don't agree with me I can wear my glasses (tinted so they appear to be sunglasses- I'm not ready to get into the "hey blue how can you see if you wear glasses" comments) without them getting in the way either.
SO, thanks for the excellent advice on wearing the mask loose. I don't relish the 85+ back-slinger into the mask but I am morbidly curious as to what will happen.
