Agreed Jgrassi, The original Pro's Choice is Top notch!
Due to budget constraints, I acquired a used Pro's Choice (rather than the new vapor that I craved) from a board member a little while ago. It is a beautiful mask. I will also echo every kind word that has been said about Dom. Despite not purchasing anything from him but a cage, Dom Has been incredibly helpful while I've refurbished it (pics to come after I paint it). You can't really understand what a nice guy he is until you talk to him. I can't wait to give him my business and order a custom lid when I can afford it!

Guys...Thanx for the kind words! I know it's a very simple paint job but it works for me. I like to thank Dom for being such a professional he is and dealing with all my stupid questions I had about the mask. I've never had a mask that comes close to the Vapor. The craftsmanship that Dom puts into his mask is unbelievable. The finish is just as nice inside as the outside. I can't even squeeze the chin it's so strong. Maybe it's me but I feel much more confident in net now too!

Champ, glad to see you got yours painted finally. The silver looks really sharp. Cheers. You're right about the chin, and you'll be amazed the first time you take a big shot on it. At least I was

Courage1..Just amazing how strong it is. I forgot mention that Dom is working with a company on a new liner and chin cup for the 2008 Vapor. Both will be lighter, absorb the impact better and antibacterial. Another great idea by Dom! Just think..no rash on your chin. This is another example why he is separating himself from his competitors. He is obvious taking a different avenue from the other mask makers. He is always thinking how to improve his product without gimmicks. From the shell design, to the state of the art materials, the Tri-cat cage and now the liner and chin cup (sling too). Keep up the great work Dom!

Champ I saw some of this, it was Crocs foam, right? Is it what they use in the shoes? What did you think about it?
Hadn't heard about the chin cup, though I've found I am quite picky about chin cups. I really like Stycae's (can I use that without copyright from Moto?) -- very soft and surprisingly durable.

Angeloxin...Yes. it is Crocs foam. Dom likes the durability and lightness of it. He's just waiting for the test results to come back on how it absorbs impact. The chin cup snd sling will also be made of Croc.
It sounds to me.. that the Vapor just got better!!!

Seriously any questions call DOM!!! I have pics of the Croc's foam from Kolzig's mask. I can't wait I hope it works out I clean my mask once a week to keep from breaking out.

Macgoalie..Sorry about that, you are right. Actually it's a solid flat plate that equals two bars. He still offers it as an option when ordering a mask.
Bud30goal..Thanx Bud!

Was Moog's mask a Pro's Choice (or whatever Dom may have been calling them then)?

A little history fact for you guys...The Andy Moog Montreal mask was also painted by Dom too!

Bud30goal your mask looks great!
I like the striped Moog mask that is the simple style I would like to get. Real classic.
