As promised to everyone i got my mask back from Dom as he put in the new crock's foam for me.I went with the blue colored foam and here are my initial rections to the new foam:
1) It's lighter than the foam Dom previously used
2) It's got a "grip" to it which makes the mask feel that much better and should help grip to your head/face when sweating
3) Has a slight anti-bacterial smell to it (barely noticable)
I had Dom insert a chin sling for me and when i put my mask on with the new sling inserted,it felt that much nicer!!! (not that it didn't feel nice to begin with
).
It brings my face closer to the cage but not as much as i initally thought (which i was a bit worried at 1st).This is the 1st time i've ever had a chin sling in my mask and now i can see why people who do have them love them.I doubt i'll ever go back to a chin cup and i was only wearing my mask for around 10mins. to get used to it.As for how the new crock's foam will absorb the impact on hard shot's,i won't be able to find that out until next week
but i'll be sure to keep you guys informed on that as well.Here's the link to the pic i took (you can enlarge the pic to get a better view of the foam and the chin sling).Enjoy!!!!
