This is our new 2009 improved Electric Sabre Mask. Better quality and structure than before, this Level 1 (350N) Certified mask is suitable for all competitions within the US.

To Size for this Mask: You want to measure around the head / face, starting underneith the chin, up one side of the head just through one ear, over the top of the head, and down the other side just through the other ear, and then ending at the chin to make a complete circle.

Use a soft ruler, or a piece of string or yarn to measure afterwards, and make sure you keep whatever you're using to measure snug on your fencer's head/face, because if it's loose at all you'll wind up with a mask that's too large!

Also note: Your masks are slightly adjustable! If you receive your mask and are unsure if it fits, ask your coach for help adjusting it before you get a larger or smaller size!

If you measure in at the following, you need this size mask:

MASKS

Starting from underneath the chin, go up the side of the head, over one ear, over the top of the head, back down the other ear, and back to under the chin to make a complete circle. (Essentially you're measuring the circumference of the part of your face that the mask will be encircling.) Use a soft ruler or yarn to measure, and make sure to keep it snug or else you'll wind up with a mask that's too large. Also Note: Your masks are adjustable! If you receive your mask and are unsure if it fits, please ask your coach or an experienced team mate to help you adjust.
