go to zebrasports out of alabama and buy the S-M for $99.00! it's a steal at that price and that is the size you want, we are about the same. you won't be sorry. they only have a couple left and what is the worst that can happen, you get it, put it on and hate it; send it back for a refund, all you are out is the shipping.

Or, sell it on ebay for $100 and have the buyer pay for the shipping.

that's funny, i just purchased a gold from them for $99 from their website and it is on its way, should arrive on wednesday. they also have a gold listed on ebay right now for $110. sounds like they are still in business to me.

okay, now masks are an entirely different animal ... do you want a standard mask or bucket style? double-bar or single? there are tons to choose from. west vest, honigs, all-star, diamond, schutt, etc. i use a west vest mask because that is what i am comfortable with and used to. but the possibilities with masks are endless. if you want a bucket then someone on here will be able to guide you in the right direction. good choice on the protector, let me know what you think of it.

I definatley want a standard mask most I have seen are single bar but a question I did have is the weight on a long day how much difference is one that weighs half a pound more vs one that weighs half a pound less , does that half of a pound add up to equal 10 pounds at the end of the day lol and I heard that low profile masks get more of the impact than the others is there any truth to that

And if you do choose the silver diamond or a gray titanium, the lighter bars are less distracting than the black bars. Another thing about the weight: Every ounce counts. For the thousands of times that you are not getting hit, the lightweight is a wonderful relief to the neck. And the other benefit is that it's less of a strain on your arm if you peel it off a few hundred times. With the old mask, I used to have a sore arm the day after a game. Now, I don't. I never even thought of that benefit. The $200 is a tough swallow when you start out, I know, but comfort and visibility should count for a lot. Diamond silver= One game fee (H.S.) All-Star titanium= Two game fees Wilson titanium= Two and a half game fees That's the way I justify gear purchases. Last edited by Kevin Finnerty; Sun Jan 18, 2009 at 03:04pm. |

Go ultra-light no matter what you choose. Diamond's new one is a pretty good answer to the titanium at less than half the cost. And the Diamond cage design offers a tab on top for a little extra skull protection. Wilson pads are better, though.
