I was wondering if its advisable to wear a ski mask under a paintball mask?
oppertunityknocks asked:
The ski mask should protect my neck and the top of my head but:
-Will it be too hot wearing it under the paintball mask?
-Will the ski mask absorb the sweat?
-Should i just wear a baseball cap back words?

As a Marshal, it is way to common to see people wearing these steaming up, even with thermals somehow, it will be very hot, it will absorb sweat, but i would advise the baseball cap backwards would be better Chelsea Boii
- It can get too hot, yes. Depends on your own tolerance for heat. However, the paintball mask retains your face heat pretty well, despite being ventilated.
- It will absorb sweat but depending on the material, it may not evaporate/dry readily, so it could become uncomfortable. And it could cause fogging problems with the goggle lens.
- Backwards cap is a little better. There’s even a padded cap made by 100th Monkey for paintball. But most players opt for a beanie or headwrap instead for head protection.
Another downside to a ski mask is it muffles your voice. Communication is VERY important in paintball and it’ll be hard to do that if people can’t hear you well.
If you want to protect your neck, opt for a bandanna around your neck or one of the actual neck protectors made for paintball. However, no neck covering does well to protect. I’d only suggest neckwear if you’re cold. nerdcore
