I need a new mask. Looking for a mask that won't fog. It gets hot and humid here in western Kentucky. Any info will be appreciated.

The mask I have had the best experience with as far as fogging is the Vforce Profiler.

I have had great luck with my JT Proflex (without visor). Make sure you try a few different types of masks out for feel if possible.

Most of the higher priced masks do well with fog...but no mask is 100% fog proof. There are lots of tricks used to help, but none are foolproof. I went from proto to e-vents to JT Flex and all are good but under certain conditions still give trouble...although the JT does the best for me...more venting at the mouth. I always try and breathe downwards from my mouth when I exhale....if possible.

I have a JT flex and it does pretty good especially if I use my fan... But it's noisy. I've just started using a Sly and I like it but if the weather is real humid it will fog too. Most of the fogging I have trbl with is my glasses.

I also use the Sly Profile, and I usually don't have fogging trouble but I did at Bear Claw. They do muffle outside sound a little becasue of all the padding on the ears, but the newer models have part of the foam cut out so you can hear better. They're also extremely comfortable.

I can't use anything without fans it seems, and i think if you use your fans just about all of them should stay pretty clear, but I am new to all of this and still experimenting.

I think the KEY is keeping them "dry" I have most of my fogging problem on Sunday. I now bring 3 masks to a senerio and switch up when they get saturated. I use E Vents & Avatars by Empire (with fans)

when do you need to switch to the 3rd mask? You must sweat as much as me.

just before the final battle on Sunday.. those final battles are hard & fast so cleaning a mask off field is not a option

I agree...I take 3 masks and swap them at times, they dry in a few hours in the sun & if there is a breeze. I rarely use all 3, but have especialy if it is rainy.

One of the fans in my mask died, I'm wondering if there are some other options out there that are smaller, I got the one's I have off of Ebay, but I have to believe there are other chioces out there.
