Shit my bad. It's not because I'm a good skier, just a family member has a hookup because they work in law enforcement. Was just trying to give context as to why I am asking only Oakley products so guys don't recommend how good another brands are. Sorry for the confusion, just wanted goggle input.

Oh word lmao. My reply was mostly a joke. I love my Line Miners and the new Flight Tracker and Flight Path are sick as well. I rock the HI Pink Prizm lens and almost never change it but I also like the Prizm Rose and Prizm Jade
 
Line miners w/ prizm lens for sure! I currently use smith maze helmet, but may be looking at oakley mod 1 when its time for me to switch.

how’s the prizm rose in suuper sunny alpine weather ?
 
if you get 50% off why get a cylindrical lens like the line miner? the reason they put athletes in it is just to market it as its a mid level goggle. step up to the flight xm and never look back. I have them with 3 lenses. Sapphire prism, rose, and then hi pink for low light. super easy to swap out and the top profile of the goggles matches up to helmets nicely.

I have a line miner an air brake a crowbar and a flight deck and don’t notice any difference as far as cylindrical vs spherical lenses but that’s just me. The flight deck definitely has the best field of vision but the spherical aspect doesn’t make a difference to me personally

because its spherical....spherical lens does not distort like a cylindrical does. given his discount level i'd go with spherical. The lens is also much more durable and scratch resistant. that is important to me skiing in the tight woods of the east coast.

It’s also way fucking bigger than the line miner
 
I love the Line Miners, however, does anyone ever have issues with how big and bulky the clips on the straps are? I love the frame and fit of the goggles, but god damn those clips under my helmet actually hurt after a long day of skiing, never had that issue with any other pair of goggles before.

Oh I thought you were talking XL. I have an XL and a line miner that’s why I was saying the FOV is bigger. I’ve used the XM and didn’t see much of a difference between that and the line miner as far as FOV
