Is it normal to not have sponsors lined up ahead of applications? Otherwise, how do people know what they are applying for? If you expect your applicants to have their race schedules for 2018 already dialed in, then it seems like you should have sponsors lined up as well.

ETA - This is not unique to Zoot, but something I have noticed with a lot of these AG teams. Sure they all provide online camaraderie and a discounted tri suit for the year, however the real potential benefit is group discounts on other gear. How can an applicant make an educated decision about which team to pursue if they don't know who the sponsors will be until after they apply and pay their $200-400? If the big ticket discount for the team ends up being on Enve wheels and I don't need new wheels, then the potential benefit of being on that team is significantly eroded.

I threw my hat in the ring!

Love the compression tights and have had good experience in the triathlon kits I have purchased. The only feedback I recommend is an email to those who registered. At minimum, this would inform the applicant that their registration was received.

I got an email saying I wasn't accepted and then a follow up email a few minutes later saying disregard the last email, but no acceptance yet. Pretty curious what's happening there. This is my first team application so I have no idea what the process or perks are but I figured I'd go ahead and apply anyways.

Non-Zoot question - I have seen Boom gels but never used one. I use Power Gels, which work pretty well and are a lot better than the Clif gels for me, but I don't have a lot of experience with Boom gels. Any thoughts on using Boom gels?

Were all notifications sent out? I didn't hear anything one way or another.
