So, in a few days I head down to Antarctica.
When you type weather forecast Antarctica into your goggle search bar, the response is something staggering.
Obviously the temperature is something ridiculous with the average being somewhere around -49degrees C and the lowest ever recorded a chilly -89degrees C. When the wind doesn’t blow I am assured it is around the freezing point.
The wind has been measured at 200mph, that is strong, one sure way to dry the washing, but wait a minute, the washing freezes!
Luckily I am going down in summer where the sun will be up 24hours a day; yes that’s it 24 hours a day. So, a good pare of sunglasses is absolutely crucial.
That’s why I must say thank a million to my mates at BLUEYE.
BLUEYE is technology coming out of Australia that is amazing. The Injection molded PC Polarized Lenses have a track record of research coming out of your ears. But the proof is in the pudding. You suspend the lenses off the end of your nose and you experience a whole new level of Sun Shade experience.
The brand is specifically designed for extreme sports in mind, made from Polycarbonate material the lenses carry the best impact-resistant material available to
protect your eyes.
I have a few models to test out but what excites me the most are the Zoo frames that are going to be very handy for Kite Skiing on the ice. The lighter lenses won’t be very handy as the white of the ice is brutal, but the darker lenses will most definitely come into their own.
