Anon Snowboard

Frequently Asked Questions

• How do I choose the right Anon helmet and goggle size for my head shape?

  Measure head circumference and consult Anon's fit guide video to pick helmet sizes; choose standard/round fits for oval heads and round fits for round heads. For goggles, pick small/medium/large by face size—M4 is a versatile adult fit while M5/M5S are built for larger faces—and confirm MFI compatibility if you plan to pair with a facemask. Check whether the helmet uses BOA 360° or an auto-adjust system (Merak and Raider lines offer those fit options) to match strap fit and seal.
• How do PERCEIVE, MAGNA-TECH, and ICT lens technologies affect goggle performance?

  PERCEIVE lenses boost contrast and depth perception for spotting terrain details in variable light, making them helpful for mixed conditions. MAGNA-TECH provides fast magnetic lens swaps so you can change tints quickly, and ICT anti-fog is chemically embedded to shed moisture and reduce fogging without constant wiping. Together these systems give clearer vision, faster lens changes, and lower maintenance on cold, wet days.
• Which Anon goggle and helmet pairings work best for MFI compatibility and a low-profile fit?

  Look for MFI-compatible goggles (for magnetic facemask integration) and pair them with helmets that advertise a low-profile shell and goggle-helmet integration; many Merak and Raider variants are designed with seamless pairing in mind. Also match strap width and check that the helmet’s venting and ear pads don’t gap the goggle foam—BOA 360° or auto-adjust fit systems help maintain a consistent seal. Confirm MFI and fit details on the specific helmet and goggle model pages before buying.
• How does the Anon M4 goggle compare to the M5/M5S, and which should I pick for different riding styles?

  The M4 is a versatile, medium-fit goggle that suits most adult faces and performs well for all-mountain riding, while the M5/M5S offer larger, frameless profiles and increased peripheral field of view suited to larger faces or riders who prioritize maximum visibility at speed. If you ride park and like a balanced fit, the M4 is often the better everyday choice; choose the M5/M5S for high-speed, big-mountain visibility or if you consistently need more lens volume. Consider face size, helmet compatibility, and whether you want MAGNA-TECH or PERCEIVE lens options when deciding.
