Cover every condition with two lenses: Green or Violet for daytime ball color, plus Natural for low light and LEDs. Simple, fast, and tournament-ready.

Tournament Day Setup: The Two-Lens Kit Every Player Needs

You don’t need a drawer full of shades—just the right two. Build a tournament-ready kit that covers changing light and different ball colors.

  1. Primary Lens (based on ball color)
    • Green for green/yellow balls outdoors—your daytime workhorse.
    • Violet if your event uses red/orange/pink balls—keeps warm tones crisp.

  2. Backup / Low-Light Lens
    • Natural for all ball colors under LEDs, late matches, or clouded finals. True color, sharp edges, and zero over-darkening.

Why not go darker? Most over-40 players perform better in medium-light tints. You’ll see spin sooner, judge pace better, and attack with confidence.

Frame features that matter on long days:
• Wrap coverage and impact-rated protection
• Anti-fog ventilation for humid venues
• Secure nose/temple grip for sweat and speed

Pack Green + Natural for standard events, or Violet + Natural if your tournament runs warm-color balls. Two lenses, every condition—Dink has you covered.
