Keeping your goggles up

I have the Smith Maze Helmet and wear my Oakley Crowbars with a beanie underneath. When ever I land hard or go over moguls my goggles fall down and I get a sweet gaper gap. Any tips to fixing this? I don't want to tighten the goggles to much, for fear of the lenses being bent.
 
Make your goggles tighter? I have the exact same setup as you and I have rarely ever had my goggles move at all.
 
First, I've never seen lenses bend.

Second, if it makes the goggles fit your head better, what would be problematic about bent lenses?

This. Goggles are designed to contour to your face so they will actually fit. Tighten your fuckin goggles

Why do you wear a beanie underneath? Did you take the liner out? Helmets are very warm.

Take out the hat and wear the goggles over the helmet. Anything short of that looks really retarded and is unsafe. Wearing a hat and/or goggles under the helmet causes the helmet to not sit properly and snugly and therefore not provide full protection.
 
I don't really think that wearing goggles under the helmet really changes how the helmet fits. I have an anon helmet and smith i/o's and the helmet fits the same with or without the goggles. Get things that fit.

You do realize this is Newschoolers.com, right?
 
This used to happen to me but I found a fix.

Put the pads back in your helmet except the ear pads.

Get a balaclava and now do what you were doing before.

Also tighten your god dammed goggles you dingus

My helmet fits snug as a fucking bug. My google strap doesn't once touch any part of my helmet so how are you going to tell me it doesn't fit properly? There's absolutely no difference if my goggles are on or off the helmet sits the same on my head because, well, it sits on my fucking head no strap affecting it. You sound like a mom.
