Log in to snowHeads to make it MUCH better!
Registration's totally free, of course, and makes snowHeads easier to use and to understand, gives better searching, filtering etc. as well as access to 'members only' forums, discounts and deals that U don't even know exist as a 'guest' user. (btw. 50,000+ snowHeads already know all this, making snowHeads the biggest, most active community of snow-heads in the UK, so you'll be in good company)..... When you register, you get our free weekly(-ish) snow report by email. It's rather good and not made up by tourist offices (or people that love the tourist office and want to marry it either)... We don't share your email address with anyone and we never send out any of those cheesy 'message from our partners' emails either. Anyway, snowHeads really is MUCH better when you're logged in - not least because you get to post your own messages complaining about things that annoy you like perhaps this banner which, incidentally, disappears when you log in :-)

Whilst reading the "Helmets with visors"
http://snowheads.com/ski-forum/viewtopic.php?t=71725
thread, I noticed a link to a Liquid Image Summit Series goggles which upon clicking didn't work.
Using my Google powers I discovered that Liquid Image Co have gone bankrupt and filed for bankruptcy Jan 2017. This might be widely known among fellow snowHeads, but I wasn't aware and owning a pair of the Apex model was a little surprised at discovering that they're no more.

Doesn't surprise me. I'ved skied with the guys who own a moderate/small goggle brand in the US and they say they wouldn't touch built in cams and GPS with a bargepole. Obsolescence is one concern but primarily the dynamics of warranty returns is vastly different for consumer electronics.
Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

Whilst I fully understand and appreciate the concerns and exposures with such a product regarding obsolescence and managing warranty returns, I thought they were relatively well established, although still a young company, to have reduced these exposures. Guess not. From what I recall, they had a number of different models across a range covering skiing, motocross & scuba diving. I don't recall there being one that incorporated GPS at the time I purchased mine, but that's not to say there wasn't one later on.
Certainly the POV camera sector is a hard nut to crack, especially with an established leader such as GoPro to compete against.
