Hi! Generally speaking, a helmet without a pronounced brim will pair well with the Norg goggle as it reduces the chance of additional pressure being applied to the top of the goggle chassis at the contact point, which has a tendency to put more pressure on the nosebridge of the rider.
Hi! Overall, I think Giros goggles are vastly underrated. Vivid lenses offer amazing contrast and definition to your field of view. Their EVAK vent tech provides excellent airflow and protection to the top foam vents. Their lenses are also made by Ziess. Possibly the best feature, though, is their EXV+ view expansion, providing optimal range of view in a tight package. While it does lack magnets for lens interchange, the push-pin system provides an element of security you don't find with other goggles. 👉www.sportrx.com/giro-article-ii-snow-goggle.html🔥
Great video gents! I notice that your channel hasn't had a Dragon goggle in the best-of list in at least the past three years. Are the other offerings just that much better? If so, what do you find are the biggest differences? Lens quality? Lens interchange system? Thanks!
Much obliged! Nothing wrong with Dragon goggles. In fact, the PXV2 was a fav when it was first released for its armored venting and sleek aesthetics. There haven't been many new releases or updated features as of late, but still a great goggle overall.
Hello! We haven't held, or had the opportunity to test a Von Zipper goggle in quite a while. They look to have some great aesthetics and awesome colorways. The chassis does suggest that there's some considerable volume to the structure as well as the lens. This could mean there's some weight to the goggles along with some top-to-bottom limitation when it comes to range of view. Not sure about the optics or interchangeability either. That said, they look good for the price point!
As a newbie skier I’m looking towards either the Oakley Line Miner or the Flight Deck, which one is preferred? And if I don’t want to have a second lense, is it important which colour of lense I get? Or can any of them do? I like the sage gold, will it do?
Hello! Both goggle models offer great range of view and comfort. Personal preference plays a role in determining which is right for you. The spherical lens of the Flight Deck offers some of the best clarity as the shape mimics that of the human eye, effectively removing any distortion when looking out/through said lens. But some people prefer the look and minimalistic aesthetics of the Line Miner. Regarding lenses, it depends what type of environment you typically ride in, as well as the amount of available light in your surrounding area. The Sage Gold at 13% VLT performs best in bright bluebird conditions but may prove too dark for cloudy/overcast days. A good all around lens with versatility for multiple lighting conditions would be the Prizm Snow Garnet (19%) or Prizm Rose (26%). Hope this helps!
@@sportrxeyewear Sure does, thanks a lot! Just a short follow up question, do you know if it’s possible to get the the Garnet or Rose in Iridium? I like the mirror look
Of course! The Prizm Rose and Garnet are not offered with a mirrored finish (Iridium) as they're intended to work in low light environments. Mirrors reduce vlt levels as it blocks more light from passing through the lens material making them ideal for bright daytime conditions. However, the Argon lens has a Garnet base tint, that might be what you're looking for!
You're on the right track for sure! The ODT (Observation Deck Technology) used on many zeal goggles mimics the design of air traffic control towers, allowing for a broader range of view especially looking down.
we have bought an array really nice googles on this trip in needing to step our game up lol, a lot of us fell in love with anon with the mag face shield that covers your nose , but to answer you, the 4D mag I bought then gave my daughters boyfriend has excellent downward view, dont see where in other brand couuld compare on that and the other all quality of that 4D mag lens and goggle is excellent and above the others in my opinion.
HI! I wouldn't say 'better', but rather what suits you best as well as overall personal preference. The Flight Deck & Tracker lenses are spherical, which mimics the shape of the eye, allowing for minimal perceived distortion when looking out of the goggle at various angles. But many people enjoy the simplicity of, and aesthetics of the cylindrical lens along with the wide field of view that the Line Miner provides.
Hello! The M5 is a tad smaller than the M4 with a rimless lens design compared to the subtle lens rim of the M4. Both pair with and accommodate our Rx inserts. Thanks for watching!
Depends what size you require/prefer. Some like an oversized look while others prefer smaller scale goggle with less overall volume. For reference, i'm 6'1 200lbs and prefer the look and feel of the M4, but i could technically wear either.
I haven’t seen Sweet Protection goggles in any of your reviews. I wonder what you think of their RIG technology.
Which helmet would you recommend in combination with the 100% Norg? Pretty round head here and cycling helmets from giro fit well. Thanks a lot!

Did smith 4d mag didn’t make the list ?
Julbo photochromatic 0-4 one lens to rule them all. I hope you review and compare them to the others.
Just ordered the Anon M5’s. Can’t wait to try them out!
Nice!
How does the Giro Article II fit and whats the field of view like compared to others? How does the Vivid lens compare to Prizm and Chromapop?

Is the Oakley Fall line L a good one?
Definitely! The rimless look is always a head-turner. Plus you get a wide FOV and great contrast with Oakley's PRIZM lens tech.
Wonder if they could goes as far as adding a color layer in the lense for specific colored eyes.
No Jublo? I find that odd...

Can anyone please let me know which goggle has the best downward visibility (Being able to see my Feet).??Looking at the Zeal Lookout as if right now.
I have zeal lookout they're great
You're on the right track for sure! The ODT (Observation Deck Technology) used on many zeal goggles mimics the design of air traffic control towers, allowing for a broader range of view especially looking down.

@@forallyall6143 you bought the zeal? And didn't think it had good downward vision?
The models with ODT tech do!
Is Oakley Line miner better than Flight deck? Or even Flight Tracker?

Does M5 differ much from the M4 and can the M4 fit with the lens insert? Thanks for a great review.
Hello! The M5 is a tad smaller than the M4 with a rimless lens design compared to the subtle lens rim of the M4. Both pair with and accommodate our Rx inserts. Thanks for watching!
@@sportrxeyewearwould you recommend the m4 or m5 I’ve been seeing mixed things on which ones to buy

do you make 509 snow goggles for snowmobiling?
Hello! We make Rx inserts for all goggle types including snowmobile, ski, snowboard, Mx, etc..
Even no uvex goggles have a place in your ranking? It seems strange to me, because as far as I know uvex is one of the best.
