Zowa Op cs Goggles Redefi ned Last month during our Timbersled adventure, we were introduced to a unique eye protec on design, the Zowa Op cs Visor Goggle. This is an en rely new design compared to tradi onal goggles — the Zowa goggles seal under your eyes like a tradi onal goggle, but seat on the helmet instead of the forehead. During our snow-bike adventure, we had several sets of eye protec on including tradi onal dirt bike goggles that soon proved to be useless and fogged over immediately. Snowmobile-heated shields require a power source, one we did not have. What worked incredibly well and actually saved the day was the Zowa Op cs Visor Goggle. For snow bike riding, we found the Zowa's to be the best tool for the job. Their thermal 365 goggle was especially resistant to fogging, with more room inside the goggle for air fl ow. Where they really shined was an increased fi eld of vision. It's so cool when something new comes along that's so impressive. With the upcoming Sandy Lane Enduro fast approaching, we decided to give Charles Lysogorski, Zowa's founder and inventor, a call for his recommenda on in choosing a Zowa goggle for woods riding/racing. Since temps have been very cool, we opted for the same pair of Zowa 365's that worked so well on the snow bike trip. For woods racing, I fl at out loved them. The increased fi eld of vision is amazing and they are almost impossible to fog. I've been running Quick Straps for years to deal with fogging issues and didn't have the me to set my new Zowa's up with a Quick Strap. I'd have to deal with the strap and hope they didn't fog too quickly. For those who wear glasses, Zowa's are also OTG compa ble. Well I'm glad to say that there were no fogging issues and the increased vision was greatly appreciated. I'm sold!
