Masks, Goggles, Lenses
There are many things that you need to now about your head protection system, including the masks, goggles, and lenses. The first is that you must wear your head protection at all times on the paintball field. Eye protection is of the utmost importance. In addition to just protecting your face, your goggles may come equipped with tinted lenses that allow you to see better on really sunny days. Some manufacturers of head protection systems have quick-change lens snaps that allow you to change lens tint as the level of sunlight changes. High end lenses offer an excellent optical clarity and fog resistance.
Some well know manufacturers of excellent masks, goggles, and lenses are JT USA, Game Face, Kingman, Raven, and U-Force. JT USA offers a number of excellent choices when it comes to your masks, goggles, and lenses. JT USA offers several goggles, and selections for all price ranges. JT USA has three main series of goggles, Elite, Spectra, and Axiom, all with specific strengths.
- JT USA Axiom Series. Among other fine products in the JT USA Axiom Series is the FX-10. The FX-10 has a quick change lens locking system. The lens locking system is ideal for players needing to adapt to changing field conditions. The FX-10 offers two types on lenses, single lens or anti-fog thermal. The visor of the FX-10 is integrated into the face of the goggle.
- JT USA Spectra Series. The Spectra Series comes with built in audio communication system that plugs in over our right ear. This enables teammates to communicate with each other. Team generals in scenario games can give orders from underground bunkers, and team leaders can call for a banzai charge.

When it comes to your paintball masks and goggles, the lenses are an important factor for protecting your eyes and for you to see what is gong on in the field. You must have lenses that can stand up to a paintball impact, and will not fog up in humid conditions. Also, you may need lenses that have a tint to black out the sun's glare. The specific tint you select for your lens may depend on the weather, or level of sunlight on the paintball field. Here is a brief description of lens types.

Single Lens - Single lenses are used in average conditions where humidity and fogging is not an issue.
Single Fog-Resistant Lens - A single fog resistant lens is used in moderate weather conditions where fogging may be an issue.
Thermal Lens - the thermal lens is more expensive than the single fog - resistant lens or the single lens. The thermal lens is used in conditions of weather extremes where heavy fogging is likely to occur.
All lenses should be periodically cleaned will a high quality micro fiber cloth.
