I have a fire lens and a clear lens crowbar.

Im looking for something to go inbetwwen the two when it is a mix of cloudy and sunny.

I usually only use the Fire for blue bird days and the clear for night skiing or storm days. I am looking to fill the gap.

Thinking either Pink Blue or Emerald iridium would be good, but i dont really know the difference.

Thanks for the help

i have pink and black for my splices, but for you, i think that the perfect one to fill that gap would be the blue irid

blue is like 3% darker and more mirrored.
if you already have both fire and clear, you could go with either for your in between lens and be fine.

black iridium would also work fine.

Hi-persimmon will get you through everything all but 5-10% at either end of the scale and even then its still usable just not ideal. Pink Iridium is pretty similar but slightly less light transmission and more mirrored/sexy
