Poster: A snowHead

Hi,
I'm looking for advice regarding which goggles fit this helmet well? hopefully get a chance to try a few pairs out next week, but would be good if anyone's got any recommendations.
Cheers

Obviously A snowHead isn't a real person

Any goggles!? The problem you will have is with the visor which is useless. It drags air at speed and stops you putting your goggles on your helmet. Get rid and wish you hadn't paid extra for it.

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

I wouldn't say any, as my carrera's leave a huge gap and move around quite a bit, also... i paid a lot less for the MX model than I did for the normal G10 so that doesn't really affect me.

Fair play. I'm sure the gap suits you. I got the one with the visor and just found it pointless. I got rid of it and stickered the holes up. It wont take you long to realise im right.

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

I wear Bolle OTG googles with My G10, they fit very well. The pair of Bolle normal goggles I had before also fit well

Don't Giro make goggles? Surely these would be a good fit. I think it would be a bit crazy if they made goggles that didnt fit their own helmets

I have a G10 and use Oakley A-Frame goggles, try these they are excellent and never steam up.

I now have a G10 MX. As before the Bolle and Oakly A frames are an excellent fit. I dont take my goggles off much so the peak isnt a problem and it keeps snow off the top of the goggles. I think that if your visor is catching air then you have the helmet too far back on your head or set too high

I've had a giro helmet (not sure what model) and Smith phenom for about 4 years. Both brill in all conditions. Just got a new Sewwt helmet and the Smith still fit very well (still probably get some new ones though, can't help myself)

And love to help out and answer questions and of course, read each other's snow reports.

I've a pair of Oakley Crowbars and like the guys with the A-Frames, they fit a treat and I've never had a problem.
Before the Oakleys I had some SPY Soldier goggles which are just a little too wide for the helmet opening. If you put them on your head first and then the helmet on top, no problem, but putting them on the helmet and then wearing them 'on top' as it were they are not such a good fit and prone to steaming up
I've the G10 MX also and the peak has never been an issue. Ok you cannot really slide the goggles up on you helmet, but I just take my helmet off on the few occasions I need to do anything without my goggles on
