Enjoying This Goggle!

No fogging problems unless the lens is momentarily smitten by snow/ice - generally after a yard sale, of course.

I've had to wipe the inside of the lens several times since I've started using the Detonator, and the fog-resistant capabilities have been maintained - consistent with their claim that the chemical is blended into the lens material itself, and therefore won't wear off. (Of course, I try to be VERY careful/delicate/fragile with this expensive and valuable lens, by using only proper lens-wiping cloth/pouch material, so that no scratch is ever put on by trying to rid the lens of ice too aggressively... so far, so good.)

Fits my Giro Omen helmet well enough, although I wish that the Detonator had the spacers that the other (for smaller faces) PPX goggle uses (forget the name - the other major one by Zeal).

Also, with my slightly larger nose (bridge, that is), I wish the goggle allowed for that better, or that there was a model built that let the pressure off the nasal passage for people with bigger noses, because it does press onto the top of my nose a little, and I have to take a finger and pull up on the tip of my nose when things get cold/congested, in order to force open a passageway to snort air through.

Overall, loving this goggle, and taking good care of it.
