This system 7 thread has gotten long.

Wore my MVP4000Ti for the first time last night and I was impressed.

Vision: The view from inside the Ti is great. I loved the view with the SL cage as well, but it seemed that things were opened up a bit more with the thinner bars. I did not even notice them. Worth the upgrade for this mere fact alone.

Durability: I took the hardest direct, flush shot to the center of my cage that I have ever taken regardless of mask last night. No bends in the frame and I felt it, but not in a bad way. Was able to continue without a break. The MVP seems to absorb shots better than the Shock F/X. I have a feeling that this same shot would have bent he cage on a shock, but I have no way of proving it.

Padding: It was mid 90s and humid here in Texas yesterday. I was sweating, but I never once had any get in my eyes. The padding did a great job of doing what it was supposed to do. The heat was totally bearable with this helmet.

Love this helmet. Cannot wait to wear it more.

Lol...yes it has ...

here is an interesting tidbit for those who may be interested... I was watching the Dodger/Giant game tonight caught a shot of SF catcher buster posey (who wears an MVP4000 TI) and Plate umpire Ed Hickox standing right next each other and I noticed that Hickox actually uses the MVP4000SL.
