Product Information

  • Overview

    Oakley's Airwave Goggle combines world-class performance, protection and comfort with a display that integrates GPS, Bluetooth and more with a host of onboard sensors to give you instant access to a world of information.

    All the information you need

    The revolutionary design allows you to view jump analytics that show distance, height and airtime. With preloaded maps available for many resorts, you can find your location and even track others in your group. Additional sensor information includes temperature, altitude, velocity and vertical descent data. Bluetooth connectivity allows pairing with a compatible iPhone for immediate viewing of incoming calls and text messages. You can also access and control playlists on your iPhone.

    Right in front of your eyes

    The first time you use Airwave will be an eye-opening experience that will leave you in awe—thanks to innovative prism technology. When you're active on the mountain, you'll have clear and open vision without obstruction or distraction. When it's time to stop and review your performance or get vital information, you simply move your eye toward the miniature prism lens. The displayed information will appear as though you are looking at a 14-inch display from a distance of five feet, so refocusing your eye is not necessary.

    Switch lenses with ease

    Oakley Switchlock Technology makes the process of lens changing quick and hassle-free, allowing you to take advantage of Oakley's wide array of optional lens tints that optimize vision for different environmental conditions. For best performance, F3 anti-fog technology is paired with a dual-vented lens, a premium design engineered with semi-flush geometry for wide peripheral vision. Oakley Plutonite lens material filters out 100% of all UV, and optional lenses with Iridium coatings balance light transmission.

    Comfort that's built to last

    The durable chassis is made of lightweight O Matter that stays comfortably flexible. O-Flow Arch technology reduces nasal pressure to improve airflow for free breathing. The rigid O Matter outriggrers, which are the attachment points for the interchangeable strap design, maintain a balanced fit—with or without a helmet. And the moisture-wicking triple layer of fleece foam at the facial contact zone further ensures all-day comfort.

    If you have a lot of money burning a hole in your pocket, then go ahead and get these goggles. Otherwise, I strongly recommend wa iting for the 2nd or 3rd generation.

    Firstly, the size and weight of the goggles, while significantly more than your average goggles, are not really noticeable while you're wearing them. However, the visibility, while acceptable, is severely reduced, especially your peripheral vision. I expect that for skiing it's not too bad, but if you're snowboarding, it significantly increases your blind spot.

    Upon start-up, you have to agree to the annoying terms of agreements, sometimes twice, which is something that I can ignore. But the real issue is the many times it crashes/hangs and then fails to capture my run. Once I had it hang 7 times in a row going up the chair-lift, failing to capture my 7 runs. Many other times, it crashes and/or powers itself off, meaning you have to go through the lengthly startup process again.

    When it does work, it's great to have your speed, max speed, GPS data, etc. but the online website interface is not very good at the moment and it doesn't always recognize that I have new runs to download. Also, it doesn't seem to register any of my jumps, although that may be because I'm not getting enough height or hang time?

    Also, the nice case that comes with the goggles fail to prevent the buttons on the goggles & wrist controller from being pressed and draining the batteries. Also, I could not get the goggles to pair with my Contour camera.

    However, my biggest issue with these goggles is that the battery doesn't last a whole day. At best I get about 5-6 hours of data (even always sleeping the display & turning it off at lunch), which falls short a few hours of a whole day on the slopes.

    I think all these issues will be worked out in the 2nd or 3rd generation of these goggles and I look forward to that day. Until then, it's my opinion that they are not ready for most people, especially at this incredible steep price.
