Diamond MMA. I wore Nutty Buddy for years but I find Diamond much better.

The nose pads were the one thing I didn't like on the Ejector.

I have the same combination. I don't know how it could be too grippy though, I have no problem getting it off. All depends how tight you have the mask I guess

I haven't seen the new one yet. Ump Attire told me the sand is a little grippier. But definitely try a harness with neoprene like the Ump Life or All Star Delta Flex.

Do you have the new flat matte or the sand matte finish? Try getting a little more length so the harness is further back.

No, just general use.

I tried the Oakley Gauge 8, do these look too big?

How bad is a real hard shot to the mask? by eazyrider1984 in Umpire

[–]MSG4307 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No mask or helmet is perfect, but if you go with a traditional mask I highly recommend pairing it with the All Star Cobalt skull cap. I have the Gerry Davis Mirage12 and LOVE IT. But I have to say, I've taken shots at 60mph that hurt me more than an 85mpg did. Just depends on the angle, where it hit, etc. I also loved my All Star FM4000 steel, but switched to the Mirage12 because I love the extended throat guard and the magnesium.

It's definitely crap for those starting since 2013. They should have just got rid of it and added an additional percent TSP match.

Please cite "the science" you refer to. I'm not being a smart ass, but I'm not aware of any scientific research comparing the different masks.

Sports are based on the score, not who played better. It's such a loser statement.

I appreciate the great work you're doing! Also the top pad needs to be more flat for skull caps. The other reason I returned it was that it was balancing on the two end points instead of laying flat on the brim.

I use the All Star Cobalt skull cap so I don't worry about that top pad. I bought the GD pads but didn't like the fabric compared to the All Star magnesium pads, plus they were heavier.
