The lenses of ski and snowboard goggles are an essential part of the equipment. Not only do they protect your eyes from the sun's rays, but they also improve your ability to see in different light conditions. There are several categories of lenses, but in this article we will focus on the categories S0, S1, S2, S3 and S4.
The S0 category is considered the clearest or most transparent lens. It is suitable for days with very poor visibility.
In the S1 category we find the yellow lenses. It is suitable for days with very poor visibility, such as dense fog, rain or days with heavy snow. These lenses help improve contrast and clarity in low light conditions, making it easier to see bumps and obstacles on the track.
The S2 category is even darker than S1, we find the orange and brown tones suitable for cloudy days. It is ideal for skiing on days with low clouds and low light, as it provides good contrast and clarity in diffuse light conditions.
The S3 category is a little darker than S2 and is suitable for days with partly cloudy skies. It is ideal for skiing on days with a bit of cloud cover, as it provides good contrast and clarity in diffuse light conditions.
The S4 category is the darkest of all and is suitable for sunny days. It is ideal for skiing on days with clear skies, as it provides high contrast and clarity in bright light conditions.
In conclusion, the S0, S1, S2, S3 and S4 lens categories are suitable for different light and weather conditions. It is important to choose the right lens based on the weather and light conditions to improve your mountain experience. In addition, it is also advisable to have several lenses to adapt to different light conditions during your Snow day.
