Seconded on the Smiths, poifect!
Prodigy + g10 doesn't work for my face ... I go with A frames.
I use a G10 and Prodigys and Fuses. My Wisdoms do not fit.
G10mx w/ prodigy and fuses here too.
i use A frames with not too much difficulty
prodigy/phenom/fuse all work killer with my 9mx. should be same as g10
I just got a G10.mx and have Prodigys, but I don't find the fit to be all that good- definitely a little gappage right in the center, where the frame dips down. Anyone have another fit suggestion? Phenoms OK?
This is not suprising.Quote:

Second the Smith Prodigys' and the Oakley A-frames. SAC has Aframes for cheap and it is worth it to have a spair pair of goggles that wont fog.
Giro nine.9 w/Scott Messenger+Amp lens.
Fits my fat head, and no fog. Ever. Even in the Gondo.
I have some Electric EG1's that seem like they'd work with my G10mx, but something about the shape of my face gives it a gap. I have some Crowbars too, and they're great.
Giro 9.9 XL (fat head) with Smith Prodigy fits me perfectly, zero gap. FYI for those big heads out there. Dad uses the XXL (even fatter head) with Careera Cup (oldschool) no gap.
Big fan of the fuse/G10 combo. The more "traditional" the goggle styling, the better they will fit. The scott's fit really well too.
I've got a few pairs of fuses, so that's my vote.
Yeah, I think I'll just rock my Fuses for now- but the hot pink frames will clash with my new jacket! Waaaahhhh! Also, the Prodigy sensor lens is $$$, and I only have the relatively shitty RC36 (or whatever) for the Fuses. But the gap is just so, well.. gaper, and I'm not a fan of the intensely-localized ice cream headache, either.Quote:

I have 3 different pairs Smith goggles, Phenom, Prodigy, & Fuse Regulator and they all fit my G10 good. I like the Phenom fit the best.
Another vote for A-frames with a g10. I found Crowbars to have a small gap in the very middle. You cant see it due to the plastic part of the frame, but you sure feel it when it is really cold. Smith Fuses seemed to fit the helmet ok, but they wanted to ride a bit low on my face. So now A-frames are fitting the bill. Oh and an FYI, buy the helmet strap if you are wearing them all day. Puts less pressure on your ears and forehead. Oh, and for all those people that keep talking about goggles for a Giro 9.... they arent even close to the same helmet :nonono2:
Yeah, I feel like a helmet strap is a must. My Prodigy and Fuse straps get pushed down by the corner of the visor, which in turn pushes the goggle frames down. Additionally, I think this helmet just rides too far back on my dome. Too bad, it weighs about half as much as my Flint and is much better ventilated. Oh, and I got a sick deal on it. Anyone want to buy a G10.mx with Tune-Ups for $80?
