God bless the delivery folks, they're earning their keep this time of year!



Got toys coming all week. Did Amazon thinking one box, but nope, they got it split six ways to sunday!:lol:
 
No Doubt.
This is NOT the time of the year to be working for UPS.
From here on it just gets worse as each days goes past.
 
I like the air brakes, i whittled down 5 sets of goggles down to 1, and saved pack room since i always carry 3 pair, 70% of my riding is whiteout flat light conditions, the faint yellow tint is the best i have used, and then i just carry my lenses and swap out as needed, super black for sunny days and then another lens as a spare.but can't wait to try prism lenses i sure hope i can get them for my air brakes

the shop here has prizm lenses in stock but only had the jade prizm & black prizm.
 
I have been a 509 user since I started, normally carry 3 different goggles with orange and blue lenses. Being a self confessed gear junkie, I will definitely try out the Oakleys with all the positive feedback and chatter here.
 
Looks like today will be a PERFECT day to test these goggles.
Will be comparing my KLIM Pink lens to the Oakley Rose Prizm today in Island Park.

Its supposed to be overcast with light snow all day long.

Can't wait for the side by side comparison to see if these Prizm lenses stand up to the claims or not !!
 
Thanx for being the guinea pig Christopher.

Looking forward to your review.

Christopher was any one in your group using the jade iridium lens or were you all using the rose lens ?
 
Seriously? :eek:

That's a shocker

You have no idea how surprised I was.
Will try to get a good solid write up of it done ASAP.

I REALLY screwed up though.
Went back up on Saturday for a 2nd day of FLAT LIGHT riding and left the dang Goggles home on accident. I really wanted to have a 2nd day of riding with them to be sure of my impressions.

I WILL take them out for at least one more day of riding before I lock down my opinion and get them on a couple more riders if at all possible.
 
Disappointed.
Will have a long review with cements from 4 different riders who all used the goggles.

Really? Did you actually compare them with non-prizm Oakley lenses? That assessment greatly differs from my findings. We've had a lot of flat light lately.... thinking about their performance in realistic terms with lighting conditions, I would say they improve definition by 20% in super flat storm light conditions and 60% in mixed lighting conditions.
