damian 0 Posted November 22, 2003 Share Posted November 22, 2003 danz, get ones like mine, they are great. Remember last season you had endless hassles when I was having none. Link to post Share on other sites
OUfreeski2 0 Posted November 22, 2003 Share Posted November 22, 2003 Those A-frames and Wisdoms look sic but dunno if they`d fit with a helmet too well. We got a sale on them here as well 10,000 yen for A-frames and 15000 for wisdoms. Link to post Share on other sites
mattlucas 0 Posted November 22, 2003 Share Posted November 22, 2003 Pretty sure all Oakleys fit with Helmets. I have worn 3 different Oalkey frames in my helmet Link to post Share on other sites
NoFakie 45 Posted November 22, 2003 Share Posted November 22, 2003 A-Frames fit great with a Burton Skycap. At least thats what the wife says. She loves them. It's a tough call, but I reckon goggles are the most overpriced piece of gear. 50% off is a big help , though it's no surprise to me that they can knock the price down by that much .

Yuki's Passion 1 Posted November 22, 2003 Share Posted November 22, 2003 I got two pairs of A-Frames and love em Danz. Have no problems with them and my helmet either. But, was thinking about getting something that has a softer frame though as a spair for my bag. Like some Smiths or something. Are those frames pretty flexible? Link to post Share on other sites
mogski 0 Posted November 22, 2003 Share Posted November 22, 2003 I just got a new pair of A Frames as I have good lenses for my old which I can still use on the new ones. Helmets can be a tight fight with the factory strap, but they do sell a helmet strap(although it doesn't have a clip) that is a little longer. If you don't want face push from your goggles I reccomend the helmet strap purchase of about 2,000y. I got my new goggles for 8,000yen Link to post Share on other sites
Siren 0 Posted November 22, 2003 Share Posted November 22, 2003 Just bought a pair of the new Wisdom Fire out of boredom. Heard that taking care of the len is a headache. Any tips anyone? Link to post Share on other sites
mogski 0 Posted November 22, 2003 Share Posted November 22, 2003 Just be sure to bag ya goggles after each use and only clean them with ya bag. Should be scratch free for the first season or so that way. Link to post Share on other sites

indosnm 0 Posted November 27, 2003 Share Posted November 27, 2003 because U wipe off the protective coating that helps them from fogging. I found a pair of brand new smiths & spy's on the same weekend @ Akakura, just lying there on the ground! I picked them up.. no one gave me a rugby tackle or bashed me for scabbing Link to post Share on other sites
