Windsurfing Sunglasses Made For Bad Weather

June 25, 2009 All Posts, Windsurfing Sunglasses No Comments

Have you ever windsurfed in the pouring rain or a hailstorm? Many hardcore windsurfers do it all the time to enjoy the heavy winds that usually accompany bad weather.  Some of windsurfing’s most memorable days can be those during the cold of winter.

Besides the frozen fingers that you can try to keep warm with neoprene gloves, a pair of good windsurfing sunglasses goes a long way to keep you eyes protected from the pelting rain and the beating hail that at high speeds during windsurfing can sting like mad and can cause eye damage.

High winds and big waves makes for great windsurfing.

Rather than closing your eyes while windsurfing in these conditions, we choose to sport a pair of water-repelling sports sunglasses like our Fiji and Maui watersports models with lightly tinted lens and impact protection.  Meanwhile for sunnier and warrmer conditions, nothing beats our favorite Mentawai model, boasting good looks and a darker lens.
