I have Ruby clear for nightskiing and overcast and visibility is awesome, and it also looks cool because of the iridium coating on it, kind of like a fire lens

I can understand why you would want different lenses for night skiing, but using goggles indoors is just plain dumb. As all the indoor places I've been to in the UK don't require the use of them...


No hate intended...

While we're on the subject. Does a tinted lens actually enhance contrast and definition of the snow, rather than having clear and just letting more light in? Cause I know when I was buttering around on this rhythm section thing my hill had, when it got really dark I had a hard time seeing where the rollers started or finished and kept starting to spin in the wrong spot. It actually looked more like a flat plane than a bunch of waves.
