How do Gatorz stay on your head?

Recommended Posts

Bend them to fit your face very well... I can wear mine without a croakie strap on video jumps. The couple rare times they slide off they are stopped by my eyepiece. I wear a croakie strap with them on any other jump with any other helmet.

Tube stow. Specifically the long piece as seen on a pair of tube stow goggles. Slides over the end quite snugly and fits great under pretty much any helmet. Just be careful about take it on and off cause it can rip the rubber grips on the gatorz. I actually jump mine all the time without a strap of any type under my frap hat and camera helmet and have had no problems with them coming off.
Hope this helps...

Just the leash thingie. Bend them to fit your face and they stay on real good. Mine are a little too tight to wear all day as sunglasses, but I put them on and off as I go in and out of the hangar.

I really love mine, they have ended up being cheaper than replacing cheap plastic ones all the time which broke at the temples about monthly.

Are they fine for freefall?? does air getting in around the side make your eyes water at all?
Would like to get some decent sunnies to jump in coz some of the goggles do make you look like a bit of a gimp....:$

Actually, Gimp wears Gatorz too. If your eyes are really sensitive, or you wear contacts, you'll be better off with a quality pair of goggles. If you find a model of Gatorz or whatever that fits your face well, it works as good at goggles. I've got probably about 300 jumps on mine, camera, RW, freefly, and I prefer them to goggles.
