Ryan is right a bit overkill. The camel lens is good for Water sports though maybe try out the Julbo Run , Dirt or Race . The brown polorized lens is very good for brown water ( rivers , lakes )The octopus lens is better for the ocean.. its a gray lens

No, these are way overkill for water sports. These have very dark lenses for high altitude glacier mountaineering. Get something that does not have a really dark lens, but is polarized. Julbo should have some other products that would work well, probably cheaper.
