Black iridum would not be a good idea for nighttime skiing. Black on shadows is bad news. Optimal would be a clear lens

Try turning all your lights off in your room, and then turn 1 lamp on. If you can see decently then go for it. But since it is black iridium, you won't be able to.

Black lenses at night are great for tree skiing, I mean skiing into trees. Use clear or yellow. Look for something with a "variable light transmission" of at least 70%.

common sense- "Hello?"

me- "Yes, is this common sense?"

common sense- "why yes, yes it is..."

me- "I have another thread to report on Newschooler.com"

common sense- "OH not this shit again..fuck me, i'm done with this shit"

I've done it. It's not ideal but you can make it work. Take into account that I did it on shitty western NY hills and was just skiing park. I wouldn't want to do it on any terrain that was remotely difficult.

Not the greatest for night. Its going to be dark and since its iridium, you are going to have glare. So try looking at clear, HI yellow, or pink iridium since you liked them.
