I'm sure most of you have heard/seen about Vents mask, but if not you should check them out. They got a nice choice of mask to choose from.

I got my Empire Vents mask the other day.

Here are some pics of it.

I kinda see it as a Profiler+Proflex= Empire Vents

I haven't used it in a game yet but wore it around the house and it is real comfy,low profile, and just is a awesome looking mask. The price was high but I think it was worth it.

You get the mask it self. It has the soft ears like JT Proflexs do and has the looks and profile of a Vforce Profiler.The mask also comes with a extra lens + a lense bag,mask bag,owners manual,visor, and another visor like thing that covers the forehead area, and a fancy display case.

Your anit-fog len seal might be broken, check it.....If it is, get a new len.


Vortex Tips:

1. For better circulation in the mask from the Vortex fan, Cut out a small square on top of the mask right underneath where fan goes......

((You can see where i cut the square out.))

2. If your JT Vortex fan is too loud when it's on? Take the fan off your mask, get some WD40 with the spray straw attached...Turn the fan on and spray WD40 into the fan and then turn on in the other direction and repeat till noise is gone......

Nope...Unless you add the WD40 right before you start playing! I spray my fan every spring, like a week before i start playing and it never burns me, but it do smell a little like WD40 for the few games..... xp

Well I got to use my Empire Vents mask today when I was reffing and I really liked the mast a lot.

**The Pros**
Low Profile- They really trimmed down the mask and made it hug the players face real nice, not enoguh to cuase discomfort.

Padding/Foam- The foam where the goggles itself it as it really comfy and soft. It's kinda got like an angel soft touch you could say.

Easy Lense Removeal- I lucky did not get hit in mask all day while reffing. (No I'm not a ref you just stands, I actually get in the game) But when I got home I did my normal mask cleaning to get sand off and such and really liked how the overall design was to remove the lense. Just a few clicks and turns and it is off.

Field of Vision- I really liked the field of vision the mask offered. Not to sure the exact degree of vision but it is nice.

Soft Ears- Comfy,soft and cuase bounces.

**The Cons**
I thought thats there is nothing really bad with the mask. There is also 2 refs at the field I work at that have Empire Vents, they also have no problems/complaints/negitives about the mask.

Overall I really like the mask. It combines some of the best features of mask on the market into one. I'd have to give it a 10, but thats me.
