Includes: leash, silicone necklace, EVA case, microfibre bag and manual Lip Surge Sunglasses The Surge adopts the same design philosophy brought to life in the Typhoon - bringing to the market high quality watersports eyewear that is both functional, stylish and durable with Levante and Vivide series lenses by LiP Sunglasses. The Surge retail price is determined by lens functionality and coatings. It is everything that watersports eyewear needs to be, to really perform in everyday to extreme conditions. The Surge benefits from the same FAILSAFE leash system incorporated in the Typhoon, guaranteeing against accidental loss. As with the Typhoon, the frame is constructed of super-strong and indestructable lightweight Swiss TR90 thermoplastic nylon with ‘shape memory’ that absorbs impacts and bouces back into its original shape. It also incorporates injection molded rubber in the nose / bridge area and on the temples for added comfort. Recently revitalised with an array of new high quality polycarbonate lens options, the Surge is offered with a wide selection of lensSURGE - KEY FEATURES LENSES VIVIDE Series: De-centered injected high contrast PC lenses with oleophobic and hydrophobic lens coatings on both inside and outside lens surfaces. Available in both Polarized (VIVIDE Ice Blue) and non-polarized (VIVIDE Copper-Smoke Silver Mirror). LEVANTE Series: Decentered injected PC Polarized lenses with multiple mirror coating options and option for ORION anti-fog coating. ecLiPse Series: Decentered injected PC photochromic lenses with hydrophobic and oleophobic coatings on both sides to repel water and dirt, and also available with ORION anti-fog coating. FRAME The frames are made of TR90, a super-lightweight and flexible Swiss polymer that offers shape memory and is highly impact resistant. This is combined with shock absorbing injection molded rubber on the bridge area of the frame and on the temples for lasting comfort. A patented venting system in the frame obstructs air from blowing directly into your eyes but rather vortexes it up and down via cuttings in the frame and lenses. This counteracts the onset of lens fogging. LEASH LiP Sunglasses propietary FAILSAFE retention system with clip-on leash coupled with a non-elastic, anti-slip cord and GRIPLOC toggle which comfortably and securely secures the frames to the head. This is backed up by a second stage security silicone necklace to which the leash attaches. The system guarantees against loss, even during the harshest of wipeouts.The GRIPLOC™ cord toggle cinches a non-stretch and unbreakable nylon leash cord into position at the back of the head by sliding the central black section of the toggle towards the head. Ridged notches inside the toggle lock the leash cord into position and guarantee a secure and slip-free performance. The GRIPLOC™ is easily released with one hand by pulling down on the grey outer sections with finger and thumb to release. The nylon leash cord is attached to the left and right temple connectors. On the inner surface, the temple connector is gently curved in the shape of the head to ensure a comfortable and smooth fit. On the outer surface, there is a recessed socket into which the rubber temple of the Typhoon slots into position. The FAILSAFE leash hook that connects to the silicone necklace is located at the opposite end of the nylon leash cord. The leash cord is permanently threaded through the body of the leash hook and cannot be removed. The profile of the hook is curved to accommodate the asymmetric profile of the silicone necklace. To install the necklace into the leash hook, the necklace is stretched and the thicker (inner) surface is inserted into the hook profile. Injection moulded TPU rubber fused to the inside surface of the frame and on the temple tips provides a comfortable interface and a cushion effect on impacts.

For skiers and snowboarders, it is often difficult to see contour lines on the snow. For golfers, it is difficult to distinguish between the green of the fairway and the green of the rough. For watersports, the overwhelming amount of blue colours can make it very hard to notice subtle details on the water. LiP’s VIVIDE™ Ice Blue lenses give LiP control over light transmission by filtering out blue light and enhancing red and green light. This fine tuning maximises contrast and enables us to see details in or on the water or in the sky that might be missed by the naked eye. This sharpening of visual acuity allows us to see more clearly and react faster to the world changing around us. With a relatively low light transmission rate of 8.35%, it also means less eye fatigue in bright conditions as the eye doesn’t need to strain to see movement clearly. This translates into better performance for longer time periods in your chosen watersports discipline. What’s not to like about that?
