x2, I wish I had known more about the mask and the absorbing pads before I bought my Brp Mod 2 helmet, I would have just got contact lenses myself. I bought the special face mask, electric shield, extra pads and had custom graphics put on it. I only used it half a season and couldn't stand it anymore. Other than the slimy snot, it was cold, my eyes would sting from air flow and it gave me bad headaches. Even got a touch of frost bite once while wearing it. (Yes I tinkered with the vents trying to fix it. I even tried putting a tall windscreen on my poor sled).
I took the graphics off, and sold it the next season for half what I payed for it. I made sure I told the guy that bought it why I got rid of it. Took that money and bought a Gmax mod helmet and I love it. And now I've got a tall windscreen for sale if anyone is interested.
