As I have said previously the damn thing is expensive, hot as hades and in all practicality Useless. you can barely hear anything with it on, You have absolutley no peripherial vision with the goggles on so trying to ride a motorcycle with this contraption on your head is inviting an early demise but DAMN IS IT BEAUTIFUL. And yes YOU DO NEED ONE. Mine is sitting on top of my cabinet first thing out of peoples pie holes when they see it is WTF is that!?!? priceless man priceless.
Never. I will never, ever get one of these. Not even if I had the money. It's useless and ugly, and I can't justify spending that much money on something like that. I know the design is probably not for everyday use, or anything practical for that matter. It's probably one of those things they made just to say they could and get the usual "WTF?" from the competition. The craziest I'd go is the Over The Top. At least it has some functional qualities. But yeah, if you like the Medusa, right on for you. I just can't say that I do.
heh... i'd prolly get more use out of the Medusa during winter treks than the OTT's any day. i had the OTT's at one point, and didn't use them once outdoors, then i sold them.
You will never understand until you have one. Medusa + Shadow Head... I stare at it everyday. It's like an Oakley god, a symbol of worship or should I say adoration. Sounds crazy but once you put it on, you feel that power!
Actually, it's best for snow sports. It keeps you warm and it acts like a soft helmet. also easy for your friends to spot you from a far.
Nope, still can't say I want one. For an Oakley god, the Icon will do just fine for me. For me, it's kinda like the Mars. Either you like it or you don't.
I'm on and off about them all the time. I think I'm on them again. It'd be great as a display item but, as others have noted, vitually useless functionally. I'll probably be getting them in October if I'm still on them by then.
I want one to wear when I'm up in the projection booth! Imagine being at the movies, looking up at the projection window in the dark theatre and seeing a medusa staring back at you!
First, to go back to needing and wanting, I think that the second you WANT one, then you NEED one, as far as I'm concern in the O hood. Also, CAL, is that a Silver/Ruby OTT ? So sick ! I just turned 20 today and income is quite low, but let me tell you that I'm definitely buying this ultimate couple that is the Shadow Head with the FULL MEDUSA KIT within the next few years ! Sick pics guys, happy for you, that's just so awesome I can't get over it.
Yeah I also would like a shadow head, but between O gear and display pieces, I will buy O gear first, excepted if I could get my hands on a tower in Canada...
