i am looking at these oakley crowbars and they have a High Intensity Persimmon lens and i am wondering if anyone has any experience with them. I am looking at a lot of flat light days and low light conditionts since i am on the east coast. i just want to be sure that these are right for me before i buy them
any thoughts?

i've used the fire iridium and black iridium lenses for years in the midwest and even though some other lighter lenses would work better, i've never had problems with low or flat light. the ones in the picture would most likely be fine, but there is another yellow-ish HI lens that would be ideal for you...i think

I use the high intensity yellow lenses for when it is dumping out or cloudy and use a amber for bright days. The high intensity yellow is not enough tint on days when the sun goes in and out of the clouds.

fire irdium makes it way hard to see, and since you ride smuggs you arent gonna be needin that much tint. just go with those ones you posted above, something semi clear.

The best all around lens is the Pink Iridium.

Get the Oakley HI (High Intensity) Yellow...it's made for low/flat light and is excellent for night skiing too.

I rocked the HI yellow like 9/10 days last year in vermont, loved it. I really hate having lenses that are too dark and the HI yellow is definately not that. harsh on bright days if you get stuck out in the sun, but survivable. if you prefer light lenses they're the way to go.
