Diablo Inferno Paintballs

diablo-inferno.jpg

The Inferno paintballs are by far one of the best Diablo paintballs. They do come at a pretty high price – around $60.00 for 2000 count – but unlike the Blaze they totally deserve it. Inferno fuels more top Amateur A, B, and Scenario Teams, plus many of the fastest guns in the Pro ranks. [...]

Diablo Blaze Paintballs

The Blaze paintballs are one of the pricier Diablo paintballs. They’re somehow better than many of the previous Diablo products mentioned, but not quite deserving the price they’re labeled. Yes they’re accurate and least likely to break in your barrel, but the weather conditions problem stays. Once it gets cold out there you can say [...]

Diablo Dusk Paintballs

Diablo Dusk paintballs are again one of the good Diablo products. There are things to be said both on the good and bad side, but I put them in-between the good paintballs on the market. One of the best things when talking about those is their availability. You can find the Dusk in almost every [...]

Diablo Formula 13 Paintballs 2000 Count

diablo-formula-13-paintbals-2000-count.jpg

Contrary to the Diablo Crush the Formula 13 gets pretty steady reviews and mostly on the good side. Diablo’s always been a respectful name when it gomes to paintball goodies and I don’t know what went wrong with the Crush and the Heat paintballs. Still the Formula 13 clears their name for as much as [...]

Diablo Crush Paintballs 2000 rounds

diablo-crush-paintballs-2000-rounds.jpg

The next Diablo option you get is the Crush…the whole review of those paintballs can be gathered in only one word – inconsistent. Why? Because when getting a case of Crush paintballs you don’t really know what you’re gonna end up with. The player’s reviews of this product vary from one end to another. You [...]

Diablo Heat Paintballs 2000 Count

diablo-heat-paintbals-2000-count.jpg

So you’ve got almost all the gear – the pants, the jersey, the gloves, the mask and the gun…overall you’re all set for the game. Except now you have to choose the paintballs that you’re gonna be playing with. I mean for sure you can’t skip that part, right. There are many paintballs you can [...]

JT Spectra Thermal Replacement Goggle Lenses

jt-spectra-thermal-replacement-goggle-lens.jpg

Even though the lenses that come with most of the JT masks are good one it happens that they at some point (after a direct hit for instance) break. Or if you’re playing under really extreme condition they can sometimes fog. Something like that can ruin your day of play completely, especially if you don’t [...]

JT ProFlex Thermal Paintball Goggles

jt-proflex-thermal-paintball-goggles.jpg

Now this is the real Flex-7 upgrade. This time all the things that should’ve been done are done and the final product is amazing – when speaking about the performance anyway as the design, although slightly different from the Flex-7, still makes the mask looks dull and boring. But other than that, whatever people were [...]

JT ProFlex 8 Thermal Paintball Goggles

jt-proflex-8-thermal-paintball-goggles.jpg

So here’s the Flex-7 “upgrade”. Well, actually it is an upgrade, but one that people tend to like less (if that makes sense). So they took the Flex-7, paid attention to what people don’t like about it and tried to change it. That’s the reason why the design looks so much better. Believe it or [...]

JT Flex-7 Thermal Paintball Goggles

jt-flex-7-thermal-paintball-goggles.jpg

Although JT Flex-7 Thermal is not the latest JT goggles they definitely deserve your attention. This is not one of the prettiest masks on the market, but looks are not everything and JT Flex-7 is doing its job (to protect you from those nasty head shots) perfectly. It is one comfortable mask that’s not gonna [...]

Proto Axis Thermal Paintball Goggles

proto-axis-thermal-paintball-goggles.jpg

The Proto Axis is what should be the Proto Switch S.F upgrade. But there comes a moment when companies do a great mask and when trying to upgrade it all they do is change the design a little bit and if there are some complains on the previous model do some work there. There were [...]

Proto Switch F.S. Thermal Paintball Goggles

proto-switch-fs-thermal-paintball-goggles.jpg

 
No paintball mask is perfect, but this one gets pretty damn close. it is not that much different than the previous one reviewed judging by the given features, but there are some major differences which take its performance on a higher level. The main difference is that the thing is not made as one-piece construction [...]

Proto Switch E.L. Anti Fog Single Paintball Goggle

proto-switch-el-anti-fog-single-paintball-goggle.jpg

The Proto Switch E.L is one of the cheapest masks on the market. It costs only $29.95, but don’t be fooled by the price and consider it cheap crap – the mask is actually pretty good. It performs very well and although it doesn’t look awesome it’s not some ugly thing. And now that we [...]

Empire Helix Thermal Goggles

empire-helixthermal-goggles.jpg

This is the cheapest goggles in the Empire menu and surprisingly they get better reviews than the Cylus ones. Actually this is something very different than the Cylus and its inheritors. The Helix is a hard plastic mask and has absolutely no rubber features like the other ones presented. Many people like it as being [...]

Empire Vents Cylus Goggle

empire-vents-cylus-goggle.jpg

This is actually the first of the Empire Vents goggles series. Only by saying that you have to guess that the previous two goggles reviewed are much better ones. But it all has to start from somewhere and in this case it starts with the Cylus. For the time those were very good goggles no [...]

Vents Avatar Thermal Paintball Goggles

vents-avatar-thermal-paintball-goggles.jpg

The Avatar is the predecessor of the E-Vents goggles, and as I was thinking there are not too many differences between the two of them. The E-Vents are an upgrade of course so they are better, but not by much. The Avatar mask is pretty good one, too. It possesses most of the advantages of [...]

Empire Vents Event Thermal Paintball Goggles

empire-vents-event-thermal-paintball-goggle-carbon-fiber.jpg

 
The time has come for the Empire goggles reviews and I’m gonna start with the latest and greatest – the E-Vents paintball goggles. I really don’t like starting with the newest stuff cause it makes the old ones look kinda dull, but anyways. So about the E-vents – this is probably the first time that [...]

PCS 20/20 Thermal Paintball Goggles

pcs-2020-thermal-paintball-goggles-urban.jpg

There you go guys – our next addition to the paintball goggles reviews – the PCS 20/20. Luckily for you, contrary to the last ones reviewed, those thingies are pretty good ones. Although this may not be the best looking mask out there, it really performs wonderful. It actually resembles the Extreme Rage 20/20 Echo [...]

Kingman Java V-type Paintball Mask

kingman-java-v-type-paintball-mask.jpg

Bad reviews are not something you usually get from me and it’s because the reviewed products are really pretty good. Still, this time, even though I tried to see the good side of these goggles, the review will be far from good. There are only two things that are good in those goggles – with [...]

Extreme Rage 20/20 Echo Paintball Goggles

extreme-rage-2020-echo-paintball-goggles.jpg

There are some very conflicting opinions about those goggles, but most of the players give them good rates and classify them as above average. The goggles are not the best looking and I don’t think anyone will argue with me about that, but what’s really important is that they do what they’re supposed to do [...]
