Proto Switch

[GTO]

G'day,

I'm looking to get a new mask, and have set my heart on a proto switch 2004. But before I get to carried away I was wondering what others who have had some experience with the switch thought about them?
Or even recommend another mask… I’m open to options??

thanx

hey dunc.

i have dye invisions, (proto is dye?) and i have no complaints.

i wouldnt think many people have the proto goggs but the invisions would be almost the same thing. (minor differences.)

go for what feels good :yes:

[Camo]

I have some IZE and in the 2 years i've had them i've had no problem. I was acctually considering of getting dye invisions, cause of the lower profile and they look sik. I've noticed many people using the vforce profilers but I can't say it would do it for me personally. :yes:

[Jamie_Cracker]

go the dyes instead the protos are ugly in the flesh and arent very comfortable,well for my fat head anyway

[Kenty]

if its comfort youre after i wouldnt go the dyes. Ive got a pair and so does my mate.
Id set back for a pair of v-force or nearly any jt except the fx10s

[Damo]

ok, in my experience, proteus are the ducks nuts, but that is my opinion... mind you that is after wearing scott's, JT spectras and old 'snappers'.

[GTO]

Cheers for the info.
I've tried on an invision, and it felt good, but a little small on my big block head. I really need a mask for a big head, thats why I was looking at the switch... any suggestions for a mask for a big head??

thanx

.

JTs

[Camo]

JTs, probaly suit big heads more, then small

[Deadeye]

The Vforce Profilers.

[Barnesy]

Hate to agree with Dead-eye, but the Profilers are sweet for big heads like myself :lol:

Tried the Proteus but they gave me headaches, if you can... try before you buy

[Jamie_Cracker]

i have tried all but the profilers and i went back to using JT proflex's

[Souse]

Mate either try the profilers or the JT's

[ticker]

who sell parts for the profilers??

[Kristen]

who sell parts for the profilers??
Try www.apbs.net.au thay sell most of the V-Force gear
Ive used V-force masks for years and i wont use any thing
else now

[Bazza]

I just bought another set of Jt's (IZE) 2 days ago...They are IMO sweet as and comfy if you have a big head :thumbsup:

[Jamie_Cracker]

yeah v forces are alright now that they dont look like fish bowls

[Deadeye]

some really cool gogles are the new ones that Dynasty, Brimstone Smoke n stuff are wearing ive seen them ic pics not sure exactly what they are. They are spectras really just with new colouring or something they look groovy.

[GTO]

Thanx for all the info and advice!
Now going slightly off topic (but with some relation), which paintball mob or store is the best to deal with (price/service)... any recommendations??

Dunc.

[Deadeye]

There are alot of good stores...
www.pwsports.com.au
www.actionpaintball.com.au
www.apbs.net.au
www.platinumpaintball.com.au
check all of these out.

[Hardcore]

Action, without a doubt. They have a lot of stock on-hand, so you don't have to wait for the order to get to them first, then get sent to you.

Where can I recall your line "rockin' up the big stuff" from?

A comedy duo/show?

"We're not saying he doesn't rock up the big stuff..."

[Jamie_Cracker]

Well spotted Hardcore!!

“Rockin up the big stuff”
Used to be one of Merrick and Rosso’s sayings when they were on Triple J a few years back now.

[Hardcore]

Yeaaaah, that's where I remember it from!!!

[XER]

Totally off track..... but it's a pitty they went commercial. I hate the two blokes on the J's in the afternoon now.

[Jamie_Cracker]

ooooo i cant stand their phone calls

[XER]

Yeah, and then they completely #$@% up my drive home from work by having a current affairs talk show (hack). Keep that sh!t in the middle of the day I reckon.

I promise this thread will be back on track in no time.......... and just to make sure....um.... I have JT Proteus and find em pretty good. Mind you I haven't really tried any other brand beside JT. Had some trouble trying to get a strap for when I'd just like to wear the spectra goggles though. Need to move down south to ski country.
