has any one put inserts of yellow poron xrd in their mask? wanna know if the foam will compress and loose its original shape under constant use quickly. If so i might see if maltese sheets are still available for purchase.

You have to contact Maltese directly by email now it seems like. Just FYI.

Where did you get the poron? Mcmaster-Carr has regular poron in diffrent densities but not xrd. I found a xrd kit used for longboarding/ skateboarding.

Long story. My dad acquired some xrd poron by calling xrd, informing them that he was interested in using their product to custom pad helmets. XRD sent him 4 different weights and 2 different thicknesses (four sheets overall) to sample. We have since custom padded a Hackva mask using poron and maltese padding. While I haven't done this or read of anyone doing this I assume you can order sheets of poron direct from XRD. Enjoy! http://www.xrd.tech/products/index.aspx

Hi all,

I figured for my first post I should have my mask. Got my vinyl print done a few weeks ago and am pretty happy with it so far.

I like a lot. 

2 questions: Does the vinyl covers the whole mask?  It looks like it does and meets up in the middle.  Does the right side mirrors the left side with the viking head too?  What model?  looks an NME from what I can tell.  Alright that might have been a little more than 2 questions!

WOW, looks awesome.  Must be hot as hell though without any ventilation.  Have you had a chance to try it out yet?

I used it once. No problems with the overheating, the face opening is big

Indeed, didn't noticed how big the opening was.  Do you have any other mask you could compare it to with a side by side picture?

Thanks!

Yeah seems to cover the entire mask with the black stripe overlayed on it. Viking is on both sides, so you are correct it is mirrored. And it is an NME3.

I feel like mask foam almost needs it's own thread with all these different types available.

I have closed this thread because it's become a junk drawer.

I would like to have multiple threads going discussing foams or comparing them.

If you have questions like VN vs Rubatex... Please start a new thread.
