I'm a very beginner swimmer, started about 3 months ago and could barely struggle 100 meters before having to stop and gasp. Now I'm fairly comfortable doing 2k or so in the pool; of course slowly. Anyway, I'm training for some triathlons this summer and did my first OWS last weekend. Had a terrible time with sighting; not actually going through the motions of it but actually seeing anything when I was doing it. I was wondering if anybody has any experience or opinions about trying the bigger goggles that have a seal around much more of your face. See here: www.aquasphereswim.com/.../sealxp_clr_transblu.html
Any comments?

I'm a relatively new swimmer too and use Aquasphere Seal XP both in the pool and in open water. Regular goggles never seem to fit me right and they give me a horrible headache. The Aquasphere goggles are very comfortable, don't leak and don't give me headaches. I have a clear pair and a dark pair. Also, check out the new Aquasphere Vista model.
Don't worry about the drag they create. With everything else that goes on while swimming, goggle drag is way down on the list.
