ya, yellow and permisson lenses are the best for all around, and for sunny you want mirrored, but it depends on the snow conditions, if its foggy all the time i would do yellow.

Any of the Iridium lenses for the sunny days, G30 and others for all around and a Hi Intensity Blue for overcast/daker conditions. This link has most of the colors and their light transfer http://oakley.com/technology/lens_tints/

i have Fire Iridium and HI Blue for my wisdoms....the HI Blues are AMAZING at night and in clouds....unbeliveable.....the Fire Iridiums are by far teh coolest looking, and in sunny conditions they work like majics....my friend has black iridium for his wisoms and they look pretty cool from a distance, but up close they are kinda plain, and he says they arerelaly dark, terrible for night skiing.....and i think the A frame black iridium is a little diff...it lok diff in person...less reflective

black iridium is so sick w/ the mirror, you can get cheap night time goggles for if you ski later but man you've gotta go w/ iridium
