Good tips Kevin. My one bonus tip is to put your goggles away in their case or bag when you’re done and they’re dry. In the past, my lenses have gotten so scratched up just from them moving around in my gear bag or car without any protection on them. 👍

[@Craig-rk8dp]

My son grabbed a pair of M4 cylindrical recently. Great googles. Big frames a big plus for wide uninterrupted vision. Face mask in brilliant.

[@stevezimmerman5644]

Good tips Kevin thanks bro. I use poly-chromatic goggles so the lens gets lighter or darker depending on the conditions which change every 15 minutes in Scotland. They cover from cat 1 to cat 3 tint so I don't need to carry spare lenses.

[@inmotion_snow]

love my anon M3s! changing lens is seamless and the magnet facemask is perfect when its super cold. there isnt much fog going on when fully covered either, and if it does just pop the mask out for a few seconds and back in

[@yasharmj1717]

Lense wont fall out when u crash?

[@SnowboardProCamp]

Good choice Yanick!

[@inmotion_snow]

@@yasharmj1717 I've had a couple of hard-ish crashes I think, lens have never fallen out

[@yasharmj1717]

@@inmotion_snow ok thanks thats pretty much my only worry about the magnetic lense clips

[@inmotion_snow]

@@JoseSantos-gl3vk well ok lol. to be fair in a crash like that the lens/goggles wouldn't be my first worry 😅

[@nickdiamond5350]

Legend, thankyou! I'm going to Japan at the start of next year for the first time thanks to your videos, I needed these tips!! Yeww! cheers from Aus!

[@youngblood71]

Boarding in Japan is awesome! You're going to love it!

did you end up going with covid 19?

[@ishan4462]

Oakley line miners all the way!

[@alasdairhood3218]

Got the m4's back in February and they fit perfectly over my glasses

[@HalfCab180_]

Buyer beware re: the M4s. I purchased the Anon M3s a couple years ago, and I love them. Have had no issues with fogging, fit or durability. My wife needed a new set last year, and I bought her the M4s with the spherical lenses. I tried them out on a couple cold snowy powder days when I went on a trip with some buddies, and had lots of fog and icing issues. This was not limited to me -- my friend who also purchased a pair had the same issue. He got so frustrated one day he went and bought a new set of Smiths, and had no further issues. I'm not sure what the issue is -- could it be the cylindrical fit of the M3s fit my face just a little better than the spherical shape of the M4s? I'm not going to invest in cylindrical lenses of the M4s, because I'd rather just pay for a new set of goggles (and these are my wife's pair anyway, and she typically doesn't like to storm ski). I'd be curious for a review from Kevin after some heavy use.

[@NewEarthAwakening]

Outdoor Master makes an awesome high end for low budget interchangeable lens google.

[@Bad_Riders]

Im mindful of magnet systems after having some and having lenses pop out in heavy crashes... Good tips though especially the bonus ones kev 👍👍

[@ellstackeradventures]

True

[@lauragatehouse7935]

Like the fact they are magnetic - quick easy change on the mountain. I use Oakley prizm. Fabulous lense and comfort but I wish they had the Meg Eric change facility

[@donvirgo]

I rocked the M4’s last season and although they fit great, I had issues with fog. It’ll be interesting to see how they work for you

[@ohaideir]

Something to add onto this, is that if you have a low nose bridge, some manufacturers such as Oakley and Smith make 'Asia Fit' goggles, which essentially has extra padding on the nose bridge to seal the goggles to your face. Very trivial difference, but its literally the difference between being able to see or not.

[@youngblood71]

I had no idea Anon goggles had magnetic lens attachments! Definitely putting them on my list!

[@Matthew-re9pb]

Dragon X2s - are my favorite. Came with 3 lenses for low light and sunny days...bought an extra clear lens for night riding

[@J10969]

Hound do they have enough room to allow someone to wear glasses with them?

[@BimmerDudeXi]

I been running with Oakley A Frame 2.0 for a few years but finally bought a larger set. Can't wait to receive the Oakley Flight Deck after finding them for a killer deal. Also bought the Rose and Clear lens as well. My biggest thing with googles, it must have an option of Clear lens. I prefer night riding more than day riding.

[@franceiroca]

Manolo Noriega Flight deck has a better peripheral vision than the M4 👌🏼

[@Jon-Chan]

Cylindrical or spherical lenses? Any benefits of each between the two?

[@jmgallo1867]

JonChan spherical are often more expensive but hav better fov and less glare and distortion

[@joseboardtista68]

Love the M4s but it did get a little foggy out in Japan back in January. I was looking forward to the Oakley Reacts but they won't come out this season. 😭😭

[@franceiroca]

Jose Boardtista M4 are cool because of the magnetic system. But I prefer the peripheral vision on the Oakley’s. Definitely.

[@joseboardtista68]

@@franceiroca totally agree but i like sbopping around for the next best thing. What do you currently have?

[@franceiroca]

Jose Boardtista I had an Anon M3 cause of the easy way to change the lenses. But the peripheral was bad. So past season, I bought an Oakley Flight deck and a Line Miner. Peripheral vision way better! I dont understand why Oakley didnt put a magnetic lens on their mask yet.

[@ellstackeradventures]

Cool

[@franceiroca]

Jose Boardtista and btw the next best thing is the new Oakley react... not sure of that expensive geek piece. Would prefer magnetic lens on the all Oakley line.

[@Seymour_Cox]

Any advice for OTG goggles?

[@sabotage3d]

Which type of lenses are these? Were they useful for the majority of daylight conditions or you had to purchase extra lenses?

[@puddipuding1127]

I found out after a season that my goggles were women’s. Thanks mom

[@SnowboardProCamp]

That sucks but also pretty funny!

[@thebrothersisterduo8658]

Hey if they did the job😂

[@jackeycheng3033]

Hehe

[@summervibes2738]

I found these goggles on Amazon. check this out amzn.to/2QwNCIh

[@Hoodinini]

Found out mine were kids i couldnt see shiet..

[@iurgnail]

what do you think about getting a sunglasses instead of goggles? where's the difference? looking to buy a sunglass so i can also use it when im not skiing

[@anegg92]

You have a good tip for what colour lenses for around tyre of weather? Such as one for sunny and one for cloudy ?

[@adamlowe8677]

Bought goggles and there's a small gap around the nose that let's air in. Should I return them?

[@_AbUser]

Hi Man! Can You tell how is Dragon PXV? Are they bigger or smaller? As for me, the bigger the better. Thanks!

[@franceiroca]

Well, love the magnetic FMI and ease to change the lens. But definitely M4 doesn’t have the same peripheral vision has te Oakley Flight deck... if Oakley would make some magnetic system to change the lenses, they would take all the game with ease.

[@parkergabhart958]

I was looking at some flight deck goggles. The magnetic lenses would be nice, but where I am located conditions dont change all that much. So I might only have to change my lense once a day once it gets darker out. That being said, you like the flightdecks? They seem to have a lot of peripheral and I like the look of them. Doesnt the flightdeck only come with one lense though?

[@profo4544]

If you want pure pov, and good ventilation. Go with either Dragon dx3's or oakley line miners. These have the best field of view, and have legit 360 ventilation, on my dx3s u can feel the air moving inside them, they legit never fog unless u get mad amounts of snow in the foam or something. Line miners are the same basically but like twice the price and you cant customize or remove the straps, i dont think line miners have butteryfly straps they look like they just go into the plastic of the frame, and come in 3 sizes that makes it kinda confusing and kinda wack because, the cool thing about having framed googles is u can get the huge field of vision POV, without having a huge goggle because they wrap around the side of ur head really well. Most magnetic goggles and newer type goggles make up or try to make up for this by being really big.

[@justinl5123]

Do they fog up with the face mask on because I’ve had the balaclava on and it always fogs up if I put it over my nose

[@eltiburon9546]

How much do they cost? They have different pricing on Amazon

[@cloud-ny5ux]

anon m4 fog on me like crazy! so mad that they fog up considering the extreme price tag

[@ellstackeradventures]

I need some new goggles

[@themonkeydoo3]

im trying to decide if I want the white or all black swell as if I want the toric or cylindrical

[@random-videos]

I have M2, M3 and M4. Personally I prefer M3! The m4 “sticks out’ too much and I don’t like the weird nose curve design.. looks odd

[@ivanazirojevic3544]

I have prescription glasses and I don't wear contact lenses, what do I do ?

[@dieterdejonghe9841]

You and tj once helped me during a live q and a with my choice for goggles and went for the dragon nfx 2 with lumalens and i'm verry happy with that. I was hoping you could help me again, i'm looking for a new all mountain board a specially for powder and on piste and to hit some side hits. I was thinking about buying the 2019 capita black snowboard of death or the 2019 lib tech t rice pro. What board would you recommend and which binding would fit it best?

[@franceiroca]

The TRice pro is 👌🏼

[@Herbilizer]

I have a problem with my lens fogging up, you mentioned about keeping circulation, should I have a gap between the top of my lens and the lid of my helmet? Thanks.

Is there a difference between snow board goggles compared to ski goggles? Or is it all the same???

[@209mac]

Different

@@209mac I was somewhat aware of that, but how are they different?

[@dostalgia]

any tips for OTG (over the glasses) goggles?

[@JR-hn4zm]

Try sportrx.com, they make prescription inserts for Alot of great goggles.

[@Gamepro2112]

If you wear glasses don’t buy the OTG goggles. They aren’t worth it. Go get you pupil distance and your vision checked one more time and then buy some goggles with inserts, gonna cost a bit more but definitely worth it.

[@adamkim6835]

Does anyone know if those blenderseyewear goggles are ok for a big head

[@adamwhite6842]

I'm new at this.. Why do I need goggles for skiing/snowboarding

[@noahmccormick369]

The wind in your eyes while you’re riding is brutal without goggles, they’ll also protect from snow spraying into your eyes, also filter out sunlight depending on the lens(some are like sunglasses, others help you see better in the dark)

[@aleavelia8606]

also it is very bad for your eyes if you are in the snow without any protection for your eyes worst case: you become snowblind which is quite painful as I've hear so I really really recommend to you to wear goggles :)

[@mmbleachtasty6121]

Call them ski googles

[@Lolaroflwaffle]

Most of the highly rated $30-$60 goggles on Amazon will do exactly what this $300 goggle will do. They often use the same magnet system, you can order cheap spare lenses, and they don't fog. I've always used them and have no idea why somebody would drop $300 for a goggle. The only difference you will see is usually a more vision impairing frame is used in cheaper goggles.

[@georgeburgess7114]

Not to mention if you actually ride or ski alot your going threw atleast one set of goggles a season anyways why drop that kind of cash

[@davidwang5986]

I need goggles for me with glasses,that is, over my glasses. Any suggestions?

[@HGnome]

Do a Google search for prescription goggle inserts. You should be able to find ones that fit your goggles easy 👍

[@Seymour_Cox]

Outdoor Master has otg goggles

[@droan999]

Casey Affleck?

[@arirahimzadeh]

they all suck cause tunnel vision : exception Flight Deck : reason : foam is thin at nose ; while with all others theres way to much space between nose and Glass ; hence it makes you feel like you are in a tunnel . No good --- Oakley Flight Deck the One who actually gives you freedom in yo vision ! Anons make u feel like you are in a huge Tunnel , no like . I was actually very shocked by the very bad performance in the Vision of Anon , smith and dragon - huuuge tunnel compared to Flight Decks ; )
