I find the small, competition style goggles, such as the Swedes, very uncomfortable to wear. Granted, in a race, every small factor matters for that split second difference, still, I wonder how much difference does the goggle shape make? Has anyone actually experimented? Is the difference enough to be worth giving up the comfort one needs in long distance swimming? It seems to me the comfort level is in this order:
Swedes "hybrids" with silicone skirts
Wear what is comfortable, gives good visibility and won't come off on the dive.
I think the effects on speed are negligible...unless they fill up with water or fall off on the entry.
