Cage Prefrences

Recommended Posts

I have no problems with my NBH 8500, but I must admit the only other cage I've used is a bauer 4000. HUGE improvement in the 8500 over the old 4000. I actually prefer my cage to a visor now.

Jofa is what fits me best so I haven't used anything else. Aside from feeling a little closed in.. which I'm sure happens with any cage, you forget about it.

nm, I really should have read your post.. first.

Itech Ti. for me. With the 480 i had problems with the wire coming right across my vision when looking down on the puck.

What cages have the best vison? I currently use a jofa and really like it, but is there anything with beyyer vision? The Itech Ti?

Stick with the Jofa it's a great cage and you seem to like it just as well.

I like my nike bauer 8500 cage, has good vision. But you wouldn't able to talk since it's very very very very tight for me.

Why not just adjust the straps so it's not so tight?

You also might have the wrong size cage.

I just used my brand new Nike Bauer 8500 last night and love it. my previous cages were a black Bauer FM 3000 and a chrome itech RBE III.. I must say I dig this true vision deal the best.. it was definetly worth the money.. by the way, I used to play with just a hs22 half shield but have had too many close calls..

I use an Itech RBE VII I2 cage and I love it. It is much less noticeable than my old Bauer FM4000 cage in silver. Plus, I prefer the bubble shape as it positions the cage further away from my face than the old one. I was actually pondering a move to an Oakley VC910 but have since reconsidered after taking a slapshot off the chin while wearing my cage. If I had been wearing a visor that would have been an ugly sight.

I use a white Bauer FM 3000 and I don't notice it at all. I think the white blends in with the ice, but to each his/her own. I tried a combo shield/cage but while I liked the vision, I hated the extra work to keep it clear and fog free.

Nothing gives you the ventilation that a cage does, of course!!
