Julbo Photochromic Goggles

Julbo photochromic goggles are leaders in the industry with photochromic lens technology.  With over 120 years of optical heritage, Julbo brings the best technical expertise to their goggle collection with Zebra and Camel photochromic lens technology.  Photochromic lenses change tint on the fly based on the lighting conditions, and also offer the highest protection from harmful sun rays.  The Zebra or Camel photochromic lens can change from a visible light transmision of 40.7% to 6.6%  (category 2 to 4) in less then 30 seconds! Photochromic technology eliminates the need to have multiple goggles, or to switch out lenses to compensate for changing light conditions.  The Camel lens is photochromic and polarizing giving you the best of the best.  Action Sport Optics is pleased to offer 4 goggle styles from Julbo that all have the Zebra, or Camel lens technology.  First up is the  limited edition Glenak Goggle with Camel Lens technology.

Anon M1 goggle with Magna Tech

Anon M1 goggle with Magna Tech is a peek into the future of Anon Optics.  This goggle is a 2012-13 release that Anon recently put out this teaser video for.  The M1 looks to be pushing the envelope on the ease of changing lenses out, and they look to have nailed the style as well.  The M1 features technology called “Magna Tech” with magnets built into the lens that connect the lens to the frame.  This technology is looking to be the fastest lens changing system to date, we look forward to stocking this goggle at Action Sport Optics.

Nike Open Halfpipe

Nike Open Halfpipe event 1 took place, and the Sean White, and Kelly Clark show is back in full effect.  These 2 athletes are so dominating it’s kind of ridiculous!  Kelly has won 13 in a row of major events, and Sean is just Sean doing his thing.  Spy Optics athlete Louie Vito is throwing down some very technical runs that would give Sean a run for his money if he could just get a bit more amplitude.
