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
I'm definitely the slow car. (No really, check out my times: www.usms.org/.../indresults.php ) Your straps on your bungies are pretty much the same way. You probably have to be swimming pretty fast (those sub 25 second SCY 50s) before that even BEGINS to make a difference.
We should carpool. You beat me in the 50, but I got you in the 100. I'll have to make sure not to get my 50's under 25, lest I have to cut my cords!
