HUNTINGTON BEACH, Calif., February 24. TYR Sport Inc. has developed the latest competition goggle to help an athlete focus on the performance of a swim. The TYR Aqua Shift Rockets is the only uni-body goggle designed specifically for racing. Its flexible rubber nose-piece requires no additional adjustment as the traditional Swedish goggle styles.
\nThe hydrodynamic goggles offer wide 180-degree peripheral lenses for a clear view of the entire pool, while their optical grade polycarbonate lenses (the shatter resistant substitute for glass) are anti-fog and UV protected. <\/p>\n
Traditional racing goggles are infamous for being uncomfortable. The Aqua Shift Rockets feature soft Thermo Plastic Rubber (TPR) gaskets with an easy-to-fit socket design. The double headstraps stabilize the goggles in place to ensure a comfortable, yet secure fit. <\/p>\n
\t\u201cThe Aqua Shift Rockets are the only one-piece true racing frame on the market. Its low profile design, enhanced vision and watertight fit make this the ideal competitive goggle. TYR is always striving to be on the leading edge of technology and this goggle is proof of our commitment,\u201d comments Steve Furniss, TYR Executive Vice President and Captain of the 1976 U.S. Olympic Swim Team.<\/p>\n
