Electric's design objective for the Electric goggle collection was to produce goggles that customers and team could depend on: mission accomplished. Vision is the most important and often overlooked part of the snowboard equation. Why do the best snowboarders on the planet trust Electric goggles? Because they helped desgin them and therefore can stand behind them.

Amazing Goggles

Rating:****

These are probably the best goggles ive ever had, I got the Andreas Wiig Pro models. They are SO BIG and you can see everything. IF you put any other goggle on they usually limit your vision a lot looking down and side to side but these don't at all.
I would recommend that you look into compatible helmets before buying them though, they fit really well over a hat but if you want a helmet make sure they will fit first.
I would have given theses a 5 out of 5 but I have a few complaints. If you get The Andreas Wiig model, Moonscape, or the C.E.S models, the Electric Logo on the strap is raised so it can be annoying to fit under or over a helmet. Thankfully i finally found a helmet that does fit with them, The Salomon Patrol Ace.(I have heard the Giro Shiv, Smith Holt, and Giro Revolver also work well with these.) It comes with a hat to wear under it so i recommend wearing a hat with the goggles over it and then the helmet.
While these CAN be worn with a helmet it is difficult to do, and the straps are much smaller than most goggles, they can stretch to fit over a helmet but it is much easier to have them under.
If you are looking for a great goggle that won't fog up, limit your field of vision, make you look like the gangster you think you are, and fit over your favorite Neff hat, theses are the goggles for you. IF you want a goggle that will fit over your helmet that you've had for 4 seasons and don't really care how it looks, i wouldn't recommend them.
These goggles have not given me any issues after i found a helmet to fit with them, i sometimes wear them with just a hat and they fit great. They come with a huge bandana in the box along with a lifetime warranty and one sticker.

Overall: Solid goggles for someone with a big face and some extra cash to spend.

Great View

Rating:*****

Got the Andreas Wiig model, love the pattern and the colors. I really like that most models have an asymmetric design.

As everyone says, the field of vision is great. I notice it in the peripheral a lot, where it's most important, but you get a lot more visibility looking up as well. It doesn't seem like you've got some big bushy eyebrows blocking your view like you get with some other goggles.

I wear a Bern Baker 'hard hat' helmet in size L, and it's a tight fit where the top corners of the goggles meet the helmet, but they fit. I've found that the 'hard hat' versions of the Baker fit a lot lower than the regular EPS foam ones. So I would speculate that an EPS helmet in any size will fit, but I might be wary in a hard hat version in a size smaller than a large. They smooshed my nose when I first put the on, but I moved the strap from running near the top of my helmet to down near the bottom. That redistributed the pressure, and they fit much better now.

So far they've held up well for me, and I've done a few cartwheels this season. I'm a little worried about how far the lens sticks out, but it's not that big of a deal. The field of vision makes it worth it.

bought these goggles at the beginning of the season early november, and they have worked great, they never fog, there big so you have a ton of vision compared to anything else out there, the ONLY problem ive had is that the goggles dont fit that well around the nose so you always feel a lil breeze , ive talked to alot of people that bought these too and they say the same exact thing, so unless you have a bigass birdbeak nose,these might not fit the way you'd like,ALSO when wearing these gogs' you'll notice your friends checkn them selves out in the lens soo be prepared to be a community mirror!.

Sickest goggles ever

Rating:*****

I just got these goggles and used them right when they came, and they are by far the best goggles i've ever owned.

first off, they're sick as hell. the peripherals are amazing, and the anti fog lens is amazing. I ride mostly park, and through the woods so i take quite a few branches to the face, and the goggles. I had 5 or 6 huge scratches on the lens, took out the case and rubbed the scratches and they came right off, and my lens looks good as new.

these things are the best hands down.

steeziest goggles out there by far, been wearin em for the past month and haven't had any problems, no fog, wear and tear nothin, only thing you might wanna know is that is that due to the big bug eye lens, it doesn't keep the sun out of your eyes as good as smaller googles and thats what is kind of illustrated in the photo, my friend on the left has the smaller eg1s and myself on the right has the eg2s, this is at boreal if you wanted to know opening week of 2010 season

sweet but flawed

Rating:****

so no matter what, these goggles are the BUSINESS. sight is of no concern, no fogging, and comfort is like a velvet couch! not to mention they are HUGE! i have the moonscapes with a bronze/gold chrome lens and the only setback is that the chrome layer over the lens is like butter. i litterally scratched them with my fingernail as easy as scratching a scratcher lottery ticket. not that it was on purpose, but really??? scratches are not warrantied, and there is NO PLACE to get a replacement lens in the same color/chrome! lame.

Intense.

Rating:*****

I've never used a better goggle. Me and my brother both ordered some, and they have the best peripheral vision out of any other goggle. The blue chrome don't mirror well, but the silver-chrome does.

Worth the ~$150.. Careful with helmet gape though.

Nice goggle, and BIG

Rating:****

I'm using these with a POC helmet and the fit is nearly perfect. They look great, but the lenses are a bit darker than I am used to. Will probably need to pickup a less dark lens for snowy and very cloudy days.

Looking for HUGE goggles?

Rating:****

Then you have found them. These goggles were almost to big for me, but they are the perfect helmet goggles. The shape is really cool and outside the glass gets nice and silver.

Rating:*****

I have a small nose and these goggles don't fit very well, especially if i have a helmet on
