Triathlon - The swimming segment

Triathlon – Your path to a stronger body and better performance in the water

Triathlon is one of the most challenging and exciting sports, combining three disciplines – swimming, cycling, and running. For the swimming segment, you need technique, endurance, and the right gear to perform your best on race day and during the training leading up to it.

At Watery, we are specialists in swim gear, and we’ve gathered everything you need for the swimming segment, whether you’re a beginner or an experienced triathlete.

Must-haves for race day

• Wetsuit: A triathlon wetsuit provides optimal buoyancy, warmth, and flexibility, allowing you to glide through the water more efficiently.
• Swim goggles: Clear vision and comfort are essential. Choose a pair that fits well and protects against glare in open water.
• Swim cap: Reduces drag, keeps hair out of your face, and ensures visibility – a key element for competition, comfort, and safety.

Nice-to-have for training

• Pull buoy: Perfect for training your upper body and focusing on technique.
• Swim fins: Enhance your strength and kick efficiency.
• Hand/finger paddles: Add resistance and build arm strength for more powerful strokes.
• Kickboard: Ideal for improving your kicking technique and strengthening your leg muscles.
• Garmin Swim 2: Track your times, heart rate, and distance.
• Transition mat: Handy for both training and race day.

Triathlon is about finding the right balance between training and equipment to improve your performance. Whether you train in the pool or open water, Watery has the gear to help you reach your goals.
