Bugz Viperz goggles-any good??

[Jedi]

Have any of you guys ever tried these and if so, what did you think of them. I have a big pair of Oakley goggles but they usually stay in my pack. They are there for "just in case" the shit hits the fan while booting up a peak. I am looking for a smaller and lighter pair of quality goggles that perform just about as well as regular goggles. The Viperz look like the ticket, any input or suggestions??

Between me and my friend we've tried and used three different pairs of bugs, we got them all for free thank god 'cause they pretty much suck. They don't vent for shit so climbing would be a nightmare with them, sweatfest!

Jared,

So you just went back to using the larger classic style of goggles??

 

Trask, what is the "Birchmark". Do you have a pair?

I almost never actually wear the goggles unless the wind is beatin' like a muthafucka, but yes, I think I have Smith's or Spy, something like that, they work great! They're also kind of flexible so they don't break in my backpack!

Won a pair of bugz at last years WarrenMiller fest:

 

Agree they fog really easily if you're sweating at all, e.g. self-powering up mt to ski down. Work okay for those lazy-ass chairlift days though...

 

Plus, they're red, so I'm all color coordinated & sheeit, which is key.

Forgot to mention that I've been told by a couple folks not to dink around and just go sink the coin into some Oakley A-frames. Apparently the goofy looking scoops do a fair job of preventing steam-up... or maybe I'm just a sucker for their marketing...
