Sneak-a-Peek: Oakley Airwave Goggles

Next Monday, Oakley are set to unveil one of the most innovative, ground-breaking snow goggles the world has ever seen! It is not just the best set of goggles to ever grace the winter sports scene, it is one of the best overall pieces of technology that has been released in recent history. The Oakley Airwave Goggles features a built-in heads-up display that mimics what appears to be a 14-inch screen seen at a distance of five feet displaying a wide range of imagery and information, including where a skier is, where their friends are, and even data about the last jump they took, or the last run they skied!

The Oakley Airwave Goggles are also compatible with your smartphone and allows you to read texts on the heads up display and even play music while you are boarding. This smartphone connectivity also allows you to find out exactly where your friends are on the slopes and the Oakley Airwave Goggles will provide you with the best route to get to them and in the quickest time. One of the best features of the Oakley Airwave Goggles has to be the built in Jump Analytics system which incorporates an accelerometer and a gyroscope to track how high a jump was and how it compared to previous jumps. The goggles also can show how fast a run was, maximum speed for a run, the amount of vertical drop in a run, a list of runs taken over the course of the day, and much more! It compiles all that data and can display it on demand – or it can save it for viewing later on the Airwave community Web site.

Oakley Goggles are going to be huge this season and although the Airwave Goggles may not be available until the beginning of the next ski season, you can buy a great selection this year including Oakley Airbrake Goggles!
