Today, I experienced how it feels when a bespectacled person sees clearly for the first time .....
I just bought a new pair of goggles after my last pair decided to call it quits last fri nite ... the entire suction rubber surrounding my left goggle came off ... thankfully only after my swim. If not, can't imagine how arrrghhhhh I would feel
Anyway, didn't know goggles are now so freakin expensive. The TYR ones at WOS all cost in the upwards of $30 ... so I went to Sportslink and found this Zoggs brand goggles from Australia. They have the Performance grade goggles that costs like over $30. I found this "Active Fitness" that costs $19.90. Ok, it has "maxiumum UV protection", "anti-fog" and some other fancy stuff like one piece sillicon dunno what and good suction etc. Decided to just buy the cheaper version since I'm no good swimmer anyway.
Tried out the goggles this morning. Wow, I was sooo impressed when I put on the goggles! It was sooo clear and the suction is really good ! Not once do I need to adjust to release the air that seeped into my goggles. It took a while to get used to the vision under water in those goggles but after that it was just plain sailing. Indeed the anti-fog works (at least for the first try!). Wow, so. ... this means I've been like living with such a lousy pair of goggles for the past 6 months and not knowing what I'm missing :P So now u know why i said i felt like a bespectacled someone seeing clearly for the first time
Ok, one little grouse is I think the suction was tooo good that it left 2 very obvious marks around my eyes .... me looks like a panda even after my shower O_O
