Thanks! I just checked it out. The off ice shield does look like those full visors they use in the cycling world. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

marka 526 Report post Posted June 17, 2020 Howdy, It seems pretty likely that closing off those areas is going to result in fog city... But if I'm wrong, I'll buy a setup for sure. Mark Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You really have condensation issues that bad? Where are you playing? I played all four years of my college career wearing the Itech bubble (Concept II I believe) and it never fogged at all. I’d get some sweat drops on it, but that just needs a towel on the bench between shifts. The only time I had a fogging issue was when I removed the anti-fog film on one as an experiment.

I think the blue is just to highlight the shape, I may be wrong, but i don't expect that to be the colour of the product.

Miller55 333 Report post Posted June 19, 2020 (edited) I think everyone playing with fogged up full bubbles is probably more dangerous than this virus, not to mention it's going to create even more contact between players. also, in China when they opened schools back up the kids played sports with masks and some actually died from it. Apparently the mask was inhibiting o2 for some kids to the point of fainting and a few kids died. I think that's more dangerous for young, healthy folks than this virus. I think a simple test before the season and then tell people not to come if they have symptoms and that's that. Anyone who feels like it might be dangerous can always opt out for a season and see how things go. Personally, I had covid in March and I'd say that it wasn't pleasant but I've had worse flu illnesses in past years. I got the flu last year and it knocked me out harder than this.

I guess it depends how seriously people still take covid when they return to sports. If you want to protect yourself, or help prevent any possible spread by reducing the spread of droplets from sweat, coughing, sneezes might be a simple addition to the bag. The Schutt splash shield has an interesting simulation model 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

althoma1 574 Report post Posted June 22, 2020 Corona isn't a hoax and playing hockey now is going to come with risks. I don't know if this will be effective enough to make it worth the cost of buying a full shield plus the filters and dealing with the likely drawbacks of extra fogging, less ventilation and more heat/sweat. It could help prevent virus transmission on the ice during play, but you'll have to lift up the mask to drink water on the bench and possibly to wipe off fog or sweat. It's good Bauer is trying to come up with things to reduce the spread of the virus and make playing safer, but I don't know how much this product will help overall. The off ice shields and the off ice masks along with not sharing bottles, no hand shakes, limiting time in the rooms, social distancing in the rooms and modifying play with things like 4 on 4 ect. may be more practical.

shoot_the_goalie 281 Report post Posted July 1, 2020 Good article in the Athletic today about these. I agree that a "mouth" shield isn't the best solution (and still going to cause problems), but at least people are thinking of ways to make things safer.
