First of all, congrats to Oakley on a simple but long awaited fix to the nasal pressure point areas! These goggles are sick as hell! The two things I truly enjoy about them is the ability to see peripherally and that they don't feel like they are there. Maybe it's the cutout from the nose section, I have no clue? They are super light weight and have incredible visual representation of every bump on the mountain! Take care and board safe bro's and sis's;-)

This goggle is the shit. Just got it in Kaleidoscope Block Text with the fire iridium lens and its the nuts. I had the Crowbar before this, and swore I'd never buy another goggle, but this was the exception to that oath. I've used plenty of other goggles before (Dragon, Electric, Anon) and although some were excellent, they didn't touch the Oakleys. But thats just my preference. Everyone has a different face.
As far as the new frame design, it definitely reduces the pressure on the nose and makes it much easier to breath, but dont go buying a new pair just cos they're the new thing on the block. They are definitely a better design than the crowbar, but not by much. If your crowbars are still in good shape, stick with them. I upgraded cos I broke my frame. For those of you not used to Oakleys, I'd suggest an iridium (fire, blue, black etc) for the sunny days, and a high intensity yellow lens for the powder whiteouts.
Overall I'm super happy with this goggle, and will be rocking them everyday this season.
Peace.

Just tried these on in the mall, they are the best goggles i have ever worn, after wearing oakley crowbars and anon figments for a few years. you get the best vision possible, you can hardly tell youre wearing them. They are so light they feel like sunglasses. The only this is the price, I would recommend getting the permission lense and going on ebay and getting another for sunny days so its cheaper. overall amazing goggles tho.
