Hey I don't know if this is a repost or if I'm all alone on this one....but I hate the feel of goggles! I always wear them for protection..and steeze haha but I feel as if I ride a lot better when I can see all around me? Anyone else feel that way? Idk It could just be me.
 
Have EG2's and Splices...idk like when I spin and shit I feel like I can't use myperipherals as well....
 
yea i feel you on that. when im learning new stuff on rails, especially handrails and stuff i always feel more comfortable without goggles. it really does all depend on the size of the goggle lens and what the tint is and all that though.
 
I feel more confertable in normal sizing clothes, but guess what im not a pussy and wear huge asss baggy clothing caus eits trendu ok! Wait, waaaaa?
 
I used to feel the same, I skied all my life, but the last 7 years most of my skiing was at a dome in the UK, so you never wear goggles to ski. Whenever I skied in the mountains I found it hard to get along with goggles as I hated how much they cut down my field of view. I tried loads and in the end found the A frames the best as they were small and close to my face so I did not find they got in the way too much. Try both large and small goggles, but for me small goggles just feel better.
 
i hated the feel of goggles i just left them on my forehead most of the time but i got splices and htey never bother me
 
i actaully have a pair of these for when i'm not feeling goggles.

they work great.
 
If you feel your peripheral vision is impared by goggles have a look into the adidas yodai. It claims to have a very wide field of vision and uninterupted peripheral vision
 
just don't use them. I've used my goggles a total of 3 or 4 times, and there was days when it was snowing hard and riding down the mountain youd get tons of snow in your eyes and shit but I just learned to accept it, tbh I'd rather put up with wind/snow in the face than wear goggles.
 
I'm not Asian, but I was conceived in Japan.

Seriously though. It took me years to find a pair of goggles that I liked wearing. With every pair I bought, the peripheral was so bad that I had to take them off to ski switch. Crowbars work for me. I actually enjoy them more than skiing in sunglasses now, and I never thought that would be possible.
 
I agree. Keep looking and you will find goggles that fit well and don't mess with your peripheral. Have you tried crows?
 
Ya haha I have splices and EG2's...haha it's more

Just goggles in general I hate...idk I wasn't trying

To find solutions just seeing if I was the only one

Haha ++k though
 
OH MY GOOD SOMEBODY UNDERSTANDS ME! I thought I was alone in the world, I cannot fucking STAND goggles. Not only the fact that your view is so blocked, but the foam is so damn uncomfortable.
 
I ALSO HATE WEARING GOGGLES BUT WHAT SUCKS MORE THAN WEARING GOGGLES IS TRYING TO HIT JUMPS WHEN IT IS SNOWING OUT AND YOU ARE NOT ROCKING GOGGLES. HITTING RAILS WITHOUT GOGGLES FEELS SO MUCH BETTER
 
Hahah they must use a fuck of alot of propane with all of those cheeeezeburgers randys been eatin. 10/10 for u sir
 
i have a boarder friend who i always ski with and he never wears his goggles.. complains about peripheral/uncomfortable and he has some electrics... I don't know, I hate riding without them at any real speed or especially with any precipitation... goggles FTW
 
I felt the same way, and would ski w/o goggles whenever possible. Then last season I bought the Scott Fix and that all changed. Seriously they are so comfortable, and the field of vision so great, I forgot I was wearing them at times. Finally I don't mind wearing goggles!
 
When hitting rails I take them off. But hitting jumps or just skiing I have to have them on or my eyes water a lot
