I'd like to know what your favorite lens types are to reduce glare at the dunes. I've used these orange tinted anti-fog dual layer snow lenses and they help to spot drop offs but I'm certain there is something better.

I use a yellow tint, Scott brand, single pane when its warm and dual pane anitfog when in its cold.
I absolutely cannot see the sand form when the sun is overhead without this yellow tint. Give me a clear or a blue or any kind of gray sun shade and I am blind from about 11:00 am til about 5:00 or 6:00 pm, if I go to dunes without my yellow I gotta go back to the nearest store to get one or otherwise I am only able to ride morning and evening.

My first trip to big dunes out west in Utah and Idaho I had not learned this yet, and I was pinching a hole in my seat foam with my **** pucker on every afternoon ride we took, and slowing everybody down in the process. With the yellow tint I can ride ***** to the wall.

Time have changes since I shopped for goggles, but in the 80s a lot of the goggle frames were the same for skiing and we would get the anti glare snow lenses for duning.

They had a yellow/orange tint lens and I have been able to use them for almost 20 years now. I can not believe how well this lens brings out the dune details in the mid day sun.

Thanks guys, these lenses sound like what I'm using already and satisfied with. Just wondering if some new technology would improve my riding trips.

I just use cheap polorized sunglasses, and they bring out the detail very well also...
