Hey can any one shine some light on the soft looking black mesh mask(almost a stocking) that a kite boarder was wearing at Melville Sunday afternoon I was hoping it reduced glare or water splash in chop . if it is for a medical condition i apologize and am happy to mind my own business .The wearer also had a black gaf helmet so the look was unusual a bit villain_ish .cheers jeff

Interesting, perhaps it is just for sun protection?

Maybe he just rolled a service station and forgot to get changed.

Was it really mesh or was it a gimp mask? [}:)]

Probably a snowskiing mask. It keeps the sun off your face.

Maybe it was one of these? A local rider was wearing one too, but I reckon your rider was wearing a helmet to cover up those ridiculous ears!! I think that it would cut down your line of vision though.
