Since there’s a pandemic your wearing a mask right? If it’s a like a true face mask and not a Necky you can punch it around the nose to keep it from fogging ur goggs

Doesn't that take away the point of wearing the mask in the first place?

OP something that might help is making sure that your goggles are completely dry before you use them. If my goggles get really wet I'll take the lens out and let them dry overnight. If you start the day with moisture inside the goggles they'll fog much worse

I have my goggles up in lift lines and stuff so I can cover my nose with a mask and avoid goggle fog.

Best tip about fogging goggles anyone ever told me was to make sure you leave them out after you ski by themselves overnight to dry so that any condensation you cannot see between the two lenses dries out. Changed my life.

Maybe but I run hot and wear a mask even before pandemic, my smiths I/o mag don’t dog, neither do my electrics, my amith i/o from last year which I wiped the inner lense on does fog.
So, did I wipe your lens? This is a big don’t do! Keep your helmet vents open, consider keeping a small towel to dab moisture off face, pay attention to keeping your body temp down.

Good point. I keep mine down almost %100 of the time, and as long as I control my heat I’m good. I also breath through my nose slowly and unless I’m hiking I do not need to breath he’s or fast, also I don’t tuck my mask under goggles
