Mask Weight Database

[RichMan]

I've noticed how much different a mask can weigh from one brand to another, from one model/line to another. This is why I thought it would be interesting to bring this up.

I am in no way implying that lighter is better or vice versa. For some it can be a deal breaker. 

If you do post your mask's weight, keep the cage on but I feel it's very important to state the following when doing so:

- Size (Jr, SR, S-M-L-XL)
- Cage (certified or cat eye) ** even with this, one cage brand to another can be quite different, so it is taken just as a general indicator
- Dangler (of course it will add a few oz.

My Reidic SR with cateye is very light at maybe 2.5 lbs. In comparison to say the Bauer 950 Large or the Warrior RF2 Large, the difference is almost a pound if not more.

It's also important on how the weight is distributed on your head. If it's front heavy, it will be uncomfortable even if it's lighter than one that sits well (this is on top of a good fit, a helmet can fit well but have a bad weight distribution).

My Bauer NMEone with a certified cage and a dangler weighs (2lbs 12.5oz) or (1.306kg)

My old Bauer profile 950x with a certified cage and a dangler weighs (3lbs 6.2oz) or (1.538kg)

My Bauer dangler with the lace weighs (4.5oz) or (128g)

Harrison mask, mid 1980’s with a Harrison catseye cage, back plate and all straps weighs in at 2.83 lbs.  Oh yeah, and add a sham sweat band (game sweat included).

Nix cage and straps

It is a heavy mask but fits me good and is well balanced. I don't feel the weight when playing
