    Sweet trooper:What goggles do you use?

    I have a tiny problem with my trooper fullcut, cant seem to find proper goggles for it.

    A-Frames left hudge gaps in the side, Wisdoms leave small gaps and just dont fit my face..
    Now looked at Zeal Optics Link wich I saw some people use,but..


    So,what´s your ride and how does ´em fit?

    The floggings will continue until morale improves.

    I use Smith Prodigys with my trooper. Works like a charm. Goggles with a roundish upper frame (like A-frames and Wisdoms) tend to give you serious gapergap when combined with Sweet helmets. Look for models with a more straight/box shape on the top of the frame. Also comes down to the shape of your noggin and face, so the best solution is to try the goggles on while wearing your helmet.

    I use crowbars, works fine by me.

    Also, scott goggles (misson etc, etc) will work great.
    Looking for the next turn..

    If you know your history, then you would know where you coming from, then you wouldn't have to ask me, who the heck do I think I am.

    Adidas Burna goggles fit the Rooster. Best goggles I've ever owned.

    thirds on the prodigy, smith phenoms work too
    One goggle you can't use with them in my experience are the Turbofans. The vent is at the top rim of the goggle so it just blows in sweaty air from under the brim of the trooper. get the ones with the vents in the goggle lens itself.

    Smith Phenoms do the job nicely over my brainbucket. Some Anons might fit too, and they can often be had for mighty cheap on sale -- and aren't half that bad a google.

    I have the Zeal Detonator. I think they may be the widest of the goggles out there. They are generally good for my big head, but they put strange pressure on my sinuses and make my nose run. I recently purchased some Prodigys. Better. Esp. when combined with a Smith helmet.

    That was probably more than you wanted to know...

    What timing on this thread. I just came from the shop tonight where I was trying on goggles with my Trooper fullcut to add a little steaze to the package.

    Any of the Smiths (I/O's, Phenoms, and Prodigies) all fit amazingly. I used I/Os last season and they worked well except for a foam issue around the nose. Tried on a new pair tonight and they didn't seem to have that problem. I wanted to try some Crowbars this year, hence the trip to the shop. As said previously, the rounded frame leaves gaps in the upper corners. They work, and work alright, but the Smiths are pretty seamless.
