How to Choose Goggles for Snowboarding

Video Transcript

"Hi, my name is Matt Vansteenis and on behalf of Expert Village we are going to learn how to snowboard today at Cannonsburg Ski Resort in beautiful Grand Rapids, Michigan. So now in this segment, we'll talk about goggles. There are two different kinds: you have your amber lens which is good for today. These also are an amber lens but they're just reflective. And then you have the darker amber, like this, so you can still see through it but it kind of makes everything dimmer. For sunny days, you want to wear something that definitely tinted to keep the sun out of your eyes. And then, for riding at night, the amber lenses will work really well or you'll want to use something more like a yellow lens or even clear so you can see better. When it's snowing hard or when you?re going fast the goggles keep all the wind and snow out of your eyes. So, if you fall you don't get snow in your eyes and you can still continue to shred later."
