As windsurfers we spend alot of time out in the sun. UV rays can damage your eyes and these sunnies are fantastic protection.
We have tested these sunnies wave sailing and blasting and have yet to loose a pair. Even better, they FLOAT! They have a hydrophobic watershield coating (sheds water easily) and the bridge is designed to keep them off your face so they wont fog up :)
Why not polarised? Polarised sunnies are great for fishermen. They allow the wearer to see through the water and spot the fishies.
For windsurfers, this is not ideal. We want to see the surface of the water, not under the water. Also, depth perception with polarised sunnies is affected and you can't judge how deep the water is!
Both styles work well with the Gath Jedi and Surf Convertiable helmets
