If you ride so hard that even your eyeballs sweat, check out the Smith Prophecy Turbo Fan Goggle. This eyeglass and O.D.S.-compatible goggle gives you ventilation that most eyeglass-compatible goggles can only dream of

  • Compatible with the available Ocular Docking System (O.D.S.) to give your non-superpowered eyes perfect vision
  • Floating foam membrane keeps your glasses from creating permanent indents in your temples
  • Turbo Fan moves air at super-speed to keep your vision clear. Runs for over 50 hours on a single AAA battery

Bottom Line: Dry your eyes.

I just bought the Knowledge OTG turbo fan goggles, but they push my eyeglasses into my face, not comfortable. Are these likely to do the same and I need a different brand?

The OTG goggles are meant to fit over your glasses comfortably so you may find the same problem with the the Prophecy. It is also possible that the size/shape of your glasses do not work well with OTG goggles generally.

I've been using fan goggles for a few years now, and if you ever plan on finding yourself hiking and skiing a lot each day in stormy weather you can get yourself some bonus laps while your buddies are cleaning goggles, or digging themselves out of tree wells due to foggy lenses. They're spendy, but worth every cent when you realize how cool they are.

Hey, I have a similar question to dra4bux2002053's which is not yet answered.

I'd like to wear Prophecy Turbo Fan over my glasses. I want to do daytime skying (in the northwest, average sun conditions) and at nigh time. So I'd like to know how easy it is to change the lens? I'd like to buy one for day time and one for night time and change them while waiting for the lift. Is that feasible, or is it a fiddly process that required good light and non-cold hands? :)

Also - are these the same fit as the Prophecy without the fan?

Thanks!!

Lens changes with this frame style will take some practice. However, it will get a little complicated if you are outdoors, with cold hands, in dim light. If you get good at it, you could easily change out the lens in under a minute, but that would be under ideal conditions.

Yes, they are similar to the prophecy, but a little deeper.

The goggle I've been waiting for!

By:

Anyone who doesn't wear glasses would never understand the struggle to keep them from fogging up. I use to obssess over the anti-fog cloths but on a stormy day, they never worked. After a white out day where I could barely see my way down, I kept thinking why no one had never invented a goggle with a fan. Bottom line - these goggles are awesome! When the vision starts getting a little foggy just hit the switch and in about a minute it's gone! Flipping the switch was pretty easy with gloves. The battery life is great - I accidentally left the fan on overnight and it still worked all day the next day. One minus is that if you have wider frames, these goggles might not fit over too well (they are not as wide as the Scott Storm OTG). I had to switch to my slightly narrower back up pair to make it work but still well worth it. I bought these with the sensor mirror and love the lenses - excellent vision in all conditions.

Replacement lenses are out there. Have a peak at the Smtih Optics website. For flat light, the best lens option according to Smith is the sensor mirror, although the RC36 is not that bad. I have the RC36 in my frames all the time and I love it. A real all purpose lens.

WIsh they would have worked

I dont wear glasses, I wanted something to keep me fog free for the bluebird days when skinning up. However this was not the answer first upper left builds fog i crank the fan to high which does nothing. Then the upper right starts to fog up and from there on you've got condensation build up and it's a losing proposition from there on if you wipe the fog it gets water all over the inside of the goggle and you've got blurry goggles. If they wanted to have me as a fog free product tester I'd love to do it but these goggles just dont work for me.
