I loves toys..what the best toy you've bought in the past few years that you find yourself grabbing at least once a week?
im bored with mine and need something new..
I was just wondering if anyone was using the new smart goggles, ...
No, and at my speed they'd probably turn into smart ass goggles, mocking me at every opportunity. :)
I was just wondering if anyone was using the new smart goggles, and do you know if they come with corrective lenses so I can see where I'm swimming? (LOL, -10).

LOL! I know that feeling! I used to use RunKeeper for my runs and before I figured out how to turn off the voice, I'd get pace and mileage every 1/2 mile. I swear there was an exasperated edge to the the tone. I half expected, "You do know you can actually run, don't you?" ;)
Center Mount snorkel. I use mine every day in practice.
I second the snorkel, and use it when I am not being bogged down by a head cold. Also, jbs treated me to a pair of Agility Paddles and I use them almost every practice.
Allen - do you use this for breaststroke?
I use it for BR kick instead of with a kickboard. I use it in drills when I want to isolate one movement. Also you can take it,turn the tube around inside the strap,then put it on upside down(and backwards) so the tube runs down your back.Then swim BR and it will keep you from lifting your head too much. Mostly I use it in warm up to swim free with good balance and head position.

I have to admit that I'd heard about these but never actually seen one. So I looked it on on the interwebs. Something about the thing makes me think there may be a future class action lawsuit similar to the "Opti-Grab."

I think the Finis center-mount snorkel is a great training tool and I used mine nearly every time I swim. The one thing I don't like about it is it makes it all but impossible to see the pace clock while swimming. I guess a Pace Pal clock would solve that problem, but don't have one yet!
