Dakine facemasks. Athlete only?

[hjb]

Need a facemask that's gonna keep me warm in the Hokkaido winter. My old one's not going to cut it at -30. Are these facemasks only available for sponsored riders? Can't find them on the Dakine website, so I'm assuming they are.
As modelled by Pollard:

haven't seen them anywhere yet, i think they were limited and only given away to teamriders and on some contests ? (ns correct me if i'm wrong)
but if you want a good facemask, i suggest you go look in your local motorcycle clothing shop, i found myself a balaclava, fleece lined and with neoprene in the front, so also quite water/snowproof....
heres an example of something similar (mines a bit less technical, but it gives you an idea of what i'm speaking about..

Hokkaido, Japan. It's like -20 most of the time, and the wind is a bitch when you get out of the treeline. It come straight off Siberia.
Anyway, thanks for the input everyone. Been looking at Yowies, they look pretty sick. I'll look at all the other suggestions too.

Artice yowie or maybe airhole ( bandana whit a hole for the mouth) very warm

 

[InvalidConflict]

and thank you, ive been trying to find that outdoortechnology site for like ever

That one looks warm as, but it's $35 though, and I can't really see the need for it to be flame proof
