Me and my buddy are arguing over what looks better the goggle strap under the helmet (with a beenie on) or over the helmet?

depends on what im skiin

park, groomers, trees, etc - capix helmet wit goggles under it

BC, pow days, trees - giro fullface wit goggs over (obviously)

personally the only helemts that i think look good wit goggs under them are the smaller skate style helmets.

i have a varient brim and rock the gogs under neath and it works. my friend has a g10 and rocks the gogs under and it looks awful.  it might not work on some people but it does on me. i dont really like the look of goggles under the holt, but everyone does it

oh yea and when i used to wear them over the top, it would hurt my ears after i took my helmet off at lunch/end of the day for some reason. i guess its from the ear flaps being pushed up against my ears, but it doesnt bother me with the goggles underneath
