First Looks - Angel Eye

ProPaintball.com recently released insider photos of the new mask by WDP, the company behind the Angel Paintball Sports brand. Called "Angel Eye", the mask is said to have two lenses, one for each eye. It will also have some sort of 'communication device' installed into the mouth piece.

But of course, none of these information can be confirmed until the actual mask is available.

My first thought when seeing the mask - "is this alien technology?".

Seriously, it looks unreal, like something from an alien movie. Everything on this mask (based on the picture, if it is real) is far from ordinary. The lens seems to extend all the way back to cover the ears. The mouth piece looks like some kind of breathing apparatus. Maybe it's because of the 'communication device', players do not have to shout anymore so they design it without any apparent venting holes on the front? Who knows. Maybe they even design the 'communication device' to make players sound like Darth Vader? HORRRR..... But is this really works, it will definitely take teamwork and communication to the next level.

The nose area also looks different. The lens is extended down to cover the nose too, with a hole in the middle of the foam to let your nose see some sunshine. With the nose breathing directly into the lens area, they must have some serious anti-fog technology.

The Angel Eye is said to debut this weekend at the USPL Surf City Open. Until then, no one knows for sure if this is the real deal. Remember the rumor about the mask that enables the wearer to see behind them?(link) Turned out to be fake.
