Re: Why some professional triathletes race Ironman/Half Ironman WITHOUT an aero helmet? [tamiii]

Remember Chrissie Wellington... she didnt wear an aero helmet while racing ironman.
Looking at video recaps of some races I always see some pro athletes with a "regular" helmet.

The only thing I see is the ventilation that may be lacking in an aero?
If the outside temperature is too warm it must be like racing with the head in a microwave if you have an aero helmet?
The time that you may win on long distance races wearing an aero helmet is not worth it?

I need to buy a new helmet this year and am racing 1 ironman & many olympics (on a TT bike) hence all these questions!

Thoughts?


Mindgames.

If you think you will be hotter, then your performance will suffer.
Easy as that.

Rest deleted,
as people will believe what they want to believe without actually having data (see above).
