About Competition Swim Goggles

Video Transcript

"Hi, my name is Hector Inga, owner of Lane Four Swim Shop. I want to tell you a little bit about competition goggles. In the swimming arena there is several styles of goggles. The smaller goggles that fit you closer to your eyes, are more of a competition or racing goggles. In addition to those there is you know - there's recreational goggles and some for training and - however the competition goggles like I said - they are very close to the eye - for instance, what I have here is one that is preferred by Michael Phelps. This is a speed socket, he wore this at the Olympics and one of the benefits of this model of goggles is that there is less drag as you're racing. And that is - in swimming that is a key - the less drag, the shorter the time that you take between the walls and possibly win."
