The season of emptying out your bank account has arrived. Once the turkey was inhaled on Thanksgiving the shopping psychos showed up to start gathering and hoarding Christmas gifts. This is of course, also known as a time for giving. Speaking of giving, shopping malls give us the heebie jeebies. Especially around the holidays. So in the spirit of Christmas, we thought we’d supply a cheat sheet of all the products we think are awesome and deem worthy of gifting someone with. Grind will be releasing two Gift Guides per week with our personal recommendations for presents hailing from the snowboard world. First up, goggles.

One of the necessities while riding is being able to see where you’re going. Lack of sight may provide for great amusements at times, however in most cases it will end with broken bones, boards, hearts and/or collisions with various objects. We’ve suggested the top goggles (in our eyes) of this year that would fit very nicely in someone’s stocking.

No need to scour for coupons, stock up on catalogs, or camp outside of Best Buy. Stick with us and you’ll be fine.
