Do the lenses ever break off or get knocked out of the frames?...

By Ranked #3 - Goggles September 30, 2011

Do the lenses ever break off or get knocked out of the frames? they seem that there's not much holding them on. I seem to be good at face planting when going off cornices and don't want to lose a lens in the snow. i am either going to buy the stance or the io and cant decide. i like the style of the io but i am pretty hard on my gear and want something that will not get scratched and broken when i crash

The lens is virtual impossible to rip from the frames without doing several deliberate actions. I've been using the ios for the last 3 yrs and have never had an issue with that and I've done my fair share of high speed cartwheels!
