Rift Face

[zarnywoop]

Has anyone come across, or devised, a different set of padding for the Rift headset?
After even just a short time I have huge great weals on my face from the sponge padding. It's not a good look, and my husband laughs at me....

I think you are wearing it wrong, the visor shouldn't be tight against your face, it should just "hang down" and touch against your face.

Undo/loosen the all the straps, and tilt the visor up, then place it over your head starting with the triangle at the back, low down on the back of your head (just around/on the lump where your head/neck is. Then hold and tighten the strap so the top of the visor is just above your eyebrows to lock it in place. Then use the tilt and rotate the visor back down so it faces forward again and fasten the side straps. If done correctly, all the weight should be taken by the top strap, and the visor should be just resting (not pushed against your face). That should limit the "rift face".

"Rift hair" is a bigger issue for me

And I get Rift Pulsing. I think I had the straps too tight so I feel the veins pulse in my skull.
I have issues, right?

Thanks for the link.

I had their cover for the DK2, and completely forgot about it. Just ordered these.
Good thing my rift is taking forever to ship, so I'm sure to have these covers when it arrives.
