Looks

Weaknesses:
Lenses are hard to change, not so flexible.

Ok after playing paintball fore some while, i new what was a good mask and not.
And JT are the most famous mask producer, so i picked up the JT-Flex 8, the olive drab one.

There are 4colors to chose from, and a model with helmet protection.

Let�s start with the negative aspects.

Lenses are hard to change, if you want a diffrent color on the lens, you are going to start working out, it takes some time.
But that not�s so bad if you play airsoft, no need to change the lense fore cleaning then, as like in paint ball = color splats on the lens.

The lover part of the mask is not veery flexible, wich is a negative aspect in paintball, but not as much in airsoft.
Example i have the CA M15A4 CQB it has an Special forces crane stock, that makes it hard to aim with this mask, becuse the crane stock is wide, makes it hard to se your iron sights, not much of a problem if you bend the mask a bit.
Fore others who have regular stocks, (not wide) there will be no problem att all to aim.

Now the Strengths:

The mask is veery comfortable, its like having a sombrero on your head:)

The mask is small, verry small, so no worrys about paintball mask being large here, it has a low profile, and you can wear bonny hats and helmets if you want to.

The ventilation in the mask is greate, paintball mask are famous fore being to small to the mouth and you have a hard time brething, no such thing here.

The vision is wide, no worries there about not seing anything.Like having those bolle goggles on you. If i remember right the field of vision is 280degres.

Light, you heard it�s like wearing an sombrero.

JT-Flex 8 has advanced "Dual-Fusion" technology, in other words there are 2lenses that are thermal, no fogging there, even if you are totaly soaked and it�s 30degrees celsius outside:)

And the coolest thingh is the looks, it�s a cool mask no doubt about it.

I recomend it gladly fore an veteran softer or a beginner, protect you teeth.
