I've used Mizuno Wave Nirvana through models 2, 3 and 4 and have been pleased with its performance and durability over the years.

I am very pleased with this purchase and I think it has increased my form and ankle flexibility greatly in just a few workouts. What they lack in comfort they make up 10 fold in increased morale and performance.

A great technical toe sock intended to help prevent blisters in between your toes.

I hate doing swimming drills, but I know they're important. I usually do them with fins. Due to my high arches, Zoomers and other stiff fins have given me serious blisters on the tops of my feet and toes. The Neofins have a neoprene foot pocket that gives a very comfortable yet stable cushion around the foot. There's a hook-and-loop strap in a neoprene flap (so it doesn't rub) that tightens the arch and a neoprene covered adjustable strap at the back. The sole has a textured plastic layer that protects the soft foot pocket when you turn off of the pool wall. The fin itself works very well. They have great propulsion with little effort.

So far these fins have not rubbed my foot wrong. Despite the cost, I think they're worth it.

I first sampled this product during the Chicago Marathon expo last October and found myself impressed. I've always had issues keeping down Gu and balancing Gatorade on the course (it's too sugary for me and upsets my stomach). I found the Enlyten sports strips to be an awesome and effective alternative to the gels and beans and blocks that are currently on the market. I like that it can fit in my shorts and is very lightweight so I never notice it during the race. It's nice to be able to pop a strip or two on my tongue and get the hydration I need for the next few miles. Plus it tastes pretty good (I'm a fan of the Grape). If you're looking for more information on Enlyten sports strips, you can visit their site at www.enlytenstrips.com.

A great watch for teh beginner to intermediate athlete. Lacks some features nessecary for the advanced user. When coupled with the available "PODs" this thing will tell you almost everyting the triathlete needs to know.

A good climber and great value! Not an areo bike, but a true all-rounder.

This would be a bike for all very highest end connisseurs. Unless you're a name snob there is no reason to pay much more for a bike that probably won't be a whole lot better.

I've always been an Oakley fan for years. I always felt that they were over-priced. So, I started shopping around for better sunglasses. I found a pair of Smith's, but never really fit perfectly. Then, before starting my second tri season, I saw these at REI, and they fit perfect. I'm really satisfied with these. Rudy Projects are well made, and are perfect for people with flatter noses like me. I'm probably going to buy the SportMask this year.

I recently purchased the 305 and have no complaints to date. It is accurate, easy to use, and provides a ton of functions.

As I mentioned, this is my first trainer so I really can't compare to others. The sales rep said that this the top selling trainer at the store, so I bought it. Originally, I was going to buy the magnetic trainer, but he said the fluid trainers are much quieter and the fact that you don't have to get off the bike to change resistance. This is something I would definitely recommend to anyone.

In my research, this bike is the best value in the entry level category. When I go out riding with my roadie biker snob friends I have no trouble keeping up. I would definately reccomend this bike to anyone looking to get into the sport. I was even able to throw a set of aerobars on it and shorten/lower my stem for a more aero position.
