Yes, I love them.  I've got the EG1s and they are great.  The bigger lens means better peripheral vision.  Get 'em!

maybe you're the gay one.

EG2s. win.

crowbars - trend follower. and crowbars look gape as fuck without a helmet too cause of those "outrigger" things.

exactlyyy. I don't like the outriggers. Certain people can pull off crowbars perfectly though.

i have EG2s, crowbars, and phenoms, they are all sick, but i like the EG2s the best, you can see absolutely everything, peripheral vision goes all the way around and you cant see any of the frame.  i have a little NS sticker on the corner of my lenses on both CBs and EG2s, cant even see the sticker on the EG2s

i have the VZ feenoms. pretty much the same feel, but the eg2s are a little bigger. I like them a lot, but the quality is definitely not up to snuff with my crowbars. crowbars fit me so nicely.

If I remember right, Smith and VZ came out with the feenom and the phenom the same year, without knowing. they found out at SIA. Both of them talked it over and decided that the spelling was different and they looked completely different so it didn't matter.

I have the EG2s and they are my favorite goggle i have ever owned. You have the best peripheral vision possible. When you have the gog on you can only see the frame if you cross your eyes they are pretty dope IMO

I think most guys like girls for a psychological reason - IE: they make us horny and want to bone them.

I personally ski because its the coolest thing in the world, and its all I know. Steeze in skiing is trendy, not skiing itself.

I live because, well... I do? i dont think it has anything to do with a trend... i think thats more of just an innate need to survive, rather than anything...

soo.. find better reasons.
