+POS mask

I have 2 of these mask and have never had a problem. I have heard stories of umpires being injured with the older virson but Ihave used mine 10 seasons and I love it.

To each his own. I'll go ahead and opt for the mask constructed of the equally light but virtually indestructible titanium alloy over the ... ahem ... plastic.

But then, all it protects is your face and skull, which houses your eyes and brain, so it really depends on the things you're willing to put at risk.

Graphite is NOT plastic. Plastic is a super cooled liquid.

I hear you. But to the layman, at first touch, it's plastic.

I'm an artist. We don't understand science real well.

(And anyone from Lake Erie knows more about super-cooled liquid than I will ever know. )

Actually, if I had the cash and needed a new mask I'd take the titanium mask with the cool silver color over the ugly +POS composite made out of...whatever it's made of.
