Mask - Page 2

I am a believer in the helmet and the only reason I would go back to a mask is if I am required to in order to advance.

I am suprised that you have a red mask. Do you receive any flak from your association? We have a guy that wears a red helmet. It looks like a big tomato on his head. Because he doesn't want to change, he is stuck calling 12/13 year old ball.

Any problems with the New View over glasses on the occasional days I can't wear my contacts?

I called Frank Neves as Honigs Northeast (in CT) and had the mask the following day!

I have never heard of anyone having problems with the Zero Gravity before.

Garth, or anyone else, have you also noticed that the mask is weak?

I wear mine with glasses; no problems.

Nope. I've taken some monster shots on it and have had no problems at all. Sounds like a defect issue if it really broke after a foul shot. I'd call +Pos.

I've taken a few shots in college games, one on a foul ball on a 90+ MPH fastball. It dented the mask a bit. I still wear it on days when I'm not wearing my new Diamond helmet.

Oh, I'd recommend the Diamond helmet from Gerry Davis. Inexpensive and far better, IMO, than the All-Star.
