The wraparound pads are what absorb the impact when a mask like the New View gets slammed by a ball. I went to these pads this year on my New View mask and the very first day I put them on, I got beaned by a fastball that the catcher never touched. It went straight from the pitcher to my lower left side of the mask. What a bang that was! My pads absorbed the impact, which was still strong.
I just have this to say about the new Wilson Titanium Mask: 200 frackin' dollars for a standard style, non-HSM mask?!? Good Lord! That's ridiculous!
