Yeah i'm definitely into the A Frames, I have them and they work wicked good. Sometimes the lenses get fucked up but other than that, a sick goggle.

Yeah Dagon goggles are really nice, they work in most light conditions, and I've never had a fogging problem either

I've got a pair of Zeal goggles with a dark red lens (or whatever you call it). They're really nice when it's light out but I need a new pair of clear ones for night-skiing (like all of our ski team practices). Has anyone else ever heard of these? My dad got them a while ago off the internet and gave them to me, but I've never seen anyone else wearing Zeal goggles.

I tried on the A-Frame goggles but found them quite uncomfortable with my helmet, they're all good though, I have some Spy's and they're wicked, my Bolles' are pretty rad too. Just try some on with your helmet if you wear one and see which feels best coz if it looks cool but hurts your nose then there's no point getting it, get something that's comfortable, then check for style.

Yeah, I wear the Zeal Link model(helmet compatible) and have the Spy Scoop Snow(when I wear a beanie) and the Spy Scoop Blizzard(helmet compatible)

I really like the Zeal a lot. They have triple shielded lenses and stuff and the wrap band is the coolest.

Zeal, they are a small company but they make fuckin' great goggles. www.zealoptics.com. They are super comfortable.

My Carrera Testa goggles are fucking amazing. They have the BEST lenses around!

I also have an older pair of Oakley goggles that i usually wear because the lense is like an amber colour and not reflective like my testa's.

I got the A Frames and they rule. Oakley has the best optics out of all the goggle/sunglasses companies out there. And for $150 they are cheeper than some other company's top of the line goggles (like Smith). They fit most helmets, they give you really good vision, they are light, and they come in really cool frame's. I got some orange and black tiger like frames.

I got the spy scoops, pretty cool but they fogged at HN, guess they dont take well to summer conditions. I got some free Arnettes there but have yet to try them, comfy tho.

For some reason i find Oakley straps hard to adjust. I could just be dumb though.

By the way Chimichanga13, the dark red lens (or whatever you call it) is called 'red rose'. It's a pretty gay name for a lens color IMO.

I have used Smith goggles all my life. I never buy the high end ones, I guess I'm cheap, but $200 on a pair of goggles doesn't make much sense to me.

Love their rose tint, super versatile.
