Which one of these 2 JT masks are better?

Elite Headshield
http://www.actioncenterpaintball.com...HeadShield.jpg
Flex 8
JT Flex 8 Full Cover 0653 [20-FLX8FULLCOVR] - $54.99 : Paintball For Less, Paintball Loaders, Tanks, Marker Guns, Paintballs, Paintball Gear - Paintball For Less
Which one is better overall?

JT Flex-8 Full Cover Goggle System
Will the Flex 8's white vents give me away in woods and do the vents really help with heat?
What does the thermal lens do?

JT Elite Headshield Mask
Is it ventilated enough? Is the vertical sight a problem? Is it more or less comfortable than the flex 8?

Any reccomendations? or any suggestions for better masks than these? do tell!

Dont get a full headsheild

But if you really want one then teh flex 8s are way, waaaaaayyyy batter. Better lense, ventilation and looks plus better weight and materials.

Hm, oh, call me evolkers. Agent 00sexy is my nickname. The headsheild offer a bigger target for your opponent to hit, also they do no bounce balls. The elite headsheilds tend to get kinda hot and stuffy plus they have bad foam. If i were you i would choose from wither profilers or regular flex 8s, or if your desperate DYE I3s.

Full head shield are crappy masks. There hot, uncomfortable, and tend to make people laugh at you.

Like green paint said, don't get a full headshield. And if you are going to play woods, I wouldn't get the flex-8s with white grills. Any other color, except maybe yellow, will be fine. I personally have been wearing a flex-8 for about a year now, and it's by far my favorite mask. Everybody likes a different fit though, so if you can try a few masks on before you buy, thats best. Just remember, no headshields. Hot, uncomfortable, don't fit well, don't vent well, will get you laughed at, and don't give bounces.
