I don't have space issues when I go to the mountains, I can bring 2 or 3 goggles, I use one and the others remain in the car.
If I'll ever do another international snowboard trip (but I highly doubt it - my life is a lot busier right now, and also the flight prices went up a lot in the last few years), I can take just one frame and two lenses and manage the lens change.

They are the exact same size as my Airblaster AirGoggle, which is super good, and they are a good fit on my face.
Right now the airgoggle feel a little bit more comfortable, but they are definitely broken in, I have used them for some years, now.
In few days on the mountains I guess they are going to feel the same.

Thanks everyone for the suggestions :)

(... and now I need a new helmet...)
Quick update, I used the Smith Squad on the mountain, they felt like the AirGoggle, frame-wise. So if you coming from the AirGoggle and want something very similar, fit-wise, the standard Squad is the way to go.
Also the Sun Red Mirror worked PERFECT for a full sun day.

I've had Smith, Giro, Anon, Electric

I can't tell in all honesty, I think the higher tier lines of those goggles are all equally good.

How is prizm clear? I just grabbed a pair or regular line miners on sale with the clear lens for local night riding to give them a try.
Never ran a clear lens always a yellow or persimmon just fine. Figure might as well try something different even though the anon perceive cloudy bust and pink work pretty decent at night.

It's a very light pink and not completely clear. I like it in cloudy and snowy conditions. Prizm tech feels good, don't know if it actually makes a difference.
