Too much snow...

I haven't used mine yet (Wilson new view Titanium)....need a foot or so of snow to melt first.

I replaced the 2-tone pads with solid black - taken from an all star mask that I retired, since i don't like the wrap-around pads.

Added a dangler because the throat protection is 3/8 - 1/2 " less than on my black Wilson A3009 original single bar w/ amara.

I may put original doe skin pads in....although I'm torn between the cool look of black pads with the silver frame vs. tan w/silver...

Great view - can't wait to use it!

p.s. As a total 180 degree opposite comment, I'd love to get my hands on an old Rawlings bar mask I used about 30 years ago. Rawlings model "AM" or "KM"....with no ear protection, no throat extention, and big (probably 3/4" thick) bars....something I'd love to get and hang in my basement. (Some of you may recognize the one I'm describing - used to be worn by Lee Weyer, Satch Davidson, probably others).
