With the current enduro trend of open face helmets and goggles is it not time that the full-face mask made a comeback? Those of a ‘certain age’ will remember that back in the 1980’s any self respecting BMX racer wouldn’t be seen dead without an Oakley (other companies made them too, Scott being one of the main ones) full mask attached to their goggles. These were the times where the full-face helmet wasn’t really on the scene, it was all JT or Jofa mouth guards or Oakley’s mask. Of course it came from Motocross, back then riders would wear these mainly for protection against roost rather than from crashing, full-face helmets were yet to really appear on the scene.
