Does anybody else run into having stop inbetween sets because water gets inside googles & (then I run into my contact falling out). I don't know how to avoid this, besides tightening & suctioning googles around eyes. I have small close together eyes & a small bridge (nose). Thank you... ideas please.

I grew up using Speedo Women's Vanquisher goggles, but when I got into high school, my coach bought us all Swedish goggles for Christmas, and I was hooked.
Currently, I have two pairs of the TYR version, called Socket Rockets - one is rose colored (it's a girly thing, I suppose), the other is the mirrored socket rocket. They have a little bit softer gasketing, for those of you who might find the original swedes a little too intense.
Either works really well, and sometimes people actually prefer the rubber tubing nose piece that comes with it.
The hardest part I have with the goggles is tying the string for the nose piece. THe first couple times is always the hardest, but once you figure out where your perfect fit it, you'll be able to use the blue tube to remember how tight to tie the string. My fingers are kind of large for a girl, so I usually use a pencil point or something like that to move the knot inside of the tube, after I cut the strings.
Plus, I like how inexpensive yet durable the TYR and Swedes both are.
