jerry81 10 #2 April 13, 2005 They look cool...but are you sure they're low-profile enough to withstand the kind of speeds and different angles at which the air will be hitting them? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ChrisL 2 #3 April 13, 2005 They appear to be designed for skiing. Most seem too high profile. they can catch air and fly up.__ My mighty steed Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
darkwing 5 #4 April 13, 2005 As others said, they look too high profile. Skydivers experience much higher wind forces, and generally from a wider variety of directions compared to skiers. Since you have already ordered them, you might as well try them out. Don't say we didn't warn you. If you wear contacts, bring a spare pair. Make sure you snug the strap. edited for typo. -- Jeff My Skydiving History Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dropoutdave 0 #6 April 20, 2005 Got the goggles the other day, they are nice and snug at the top but a bit loose at the bottom but I think i've got weird shaped eye sockets, nothing a bit more foam won't fix though. Still, I got a free beanie with em so if they do turn out to be shit not all is lost. ------------------------------------------------------ May Contain Nut traces......
