I just saw Henrik Windstedts website (www.henrikwindstedt.com) pretty cool site..

But in his gear section if you roll over his goggles it says:

'Keep an eye out for my own goggle brand'

Anyone got any info on this?? What is he wearing right now??

Pretty weird he would be the third swedish skier with his own goggle brand.. Jon with Yniq and Kaj with Kask...

Apparently, there are still plenty of niches available in the Swedish boutique ski goggle market. Jump on it kids, you'll make millions.

He was using Rossignol goggles last year (when he was skiing for Rossignol) in his documentary Exploded View. If you watch the FWT vids from this season it looks like he is using Reebok now?

Hmm I might be wrong about that. When looking closer it appears to be some kind of Reebook goggle. But they are very similar to Dr Zipe's.

It's either Reebok or Rossi. I can't find any reference to Reebok making goggles on the web, but it doesn't make sense to wear Rossi when he switched ski sponsors to Salomon this season.

Not sure why Oakley or Smith haven't picked him up for eyewear, he is one of the best skiers in the world. Or maybe Jon should with Yniq.

Well he says he is starting his own goggle brand :) so he prob doesnt need to be picked up buy oakley or smith.. but maybe he secretly is working together with Jon and Yniq to split costs? ;)
