Opinions on the Grill 2.0?

[cheapguitarscheapthrills]

Ans gear is basically blowing these out some as cheap as $30 for wacky colors. Might buy one to throw in the bag for spare/loaner. If memory serves this system wasn't loved as much as the OG grills or am I miss remembering? Never handled one and I haven't worn anything V-force since I was shooting Spyders back in the day. Mostly a Proflex, E-flex guy how do they compare?

I got one of the blowout ones and used it last week. It’s okay, but I don’t like it as much as the 1.0. It’s echo-y and the ear portions push uncomfortably into your head and the FOV is just okay. For the low price it’s a fine choice, especially for a backup mask, but there’s a reason they’re so cheap.

Thanks Johnny, I might pickup one of the pink ones and tell the Mrs. It's for her when she finally plays with me in 2-3 years haha

That’s exactly the one I got! Pink lemonade baby 😎

I never liked the original personally, and these are even more ugly. I will die with JT's on my face, nothing else has come close as far as comfort, field of view, breathability. (I've always been a Proshield fan but now I'm all about the F8's)

JTs are great, the only reason I moved away from them is the archaic lens changing system. I hear it’s better now, but I drank a bunch of Vio koolaid and I’m happy there.

It's great for smaller heads. I liked mine for the first 10min I wore it and then it really started to bother my ears. As you may or may not have noticed, I have a rather large dome.

I always hated how the Grill 1.0 looked, so I never tried it. I eventually gave in and purchased a Grill 2.0 from ANS to try out because PaintballDNA makes a GoPro mount

but I ended up returning it to ANS because the mask was just so bad. Maybe my head is just too small for it or something, but the Grill 2.0 sat on my nose and put a lot of pressure on it, making it a bit difficult to breathe even just walking around the house. I couldn't imagine using it during actual gameplay. Strange because that is not an issue I've ever had with another mask.

Profilers were so much better than the Grill, hopefully they do a 2.0 eventually. Dye i5 is my go-to now. They were expensive, but they came with a GoPro mount out of the box, so I didn't even have to find a third-party option, which was nice.

The dye masks always seemed appealing cuz they have that welder's helmet tightening system and I'm a welder so I'm like oooo
