Anybody own one of the rocket science tri suits? I like the look, just curious of any thoughts out there.
Hi Littlefoot,
We’ve been getting great feedback on the Rocket Science tri suits and clothing. I’m not sure what style you are looking at…but the feedback we are getting is that the clothing is extremely comfortable. Another cool features we are very excited about is their innovative leg grippers. Interestingly enough, Rocket Science Sports (Marcin- the founder and designer of Rocket Science Sports) came up to Wildflower with Triathlon LAB 2 years ago to help show their product in our booth. We had a conversation about women’s shorts and the problems with the leg grippers. Specifically the “sausage leg” effect that silicon leg grippers can cause for women, (even in the fittest of women). We also discussed the irritation caused by the tight gripper…and that many customers need to turn the grippers up for comfort. Marcin…being the engineer who is passionate about designing and innovation started to brainstorm a new leg gripper design right on the spot. I forgot about that conversation…but when his 2009 clothing came out it had the new leg gripper design. Basically they look like little short waves that are not connected to each other. They do not cause the sausage effect on women, and are very comfortable as the gripper is not continous. Although men don’t have the “sausage leg” problem to contend with, they do appreciate the comfortable leg gripper design. In addition to the leg grippers, the fabric and seams on both the tops and the shorts are very comfortable.
Here’s a couple of photo’s of the RSS tri clothing…
Rocket Science Sports makes great products…

thanks, I appreciate the feedback.
I am hoping to get the black grey and red one.
Our team will be racing in them this season. I’ll post some thoughts once we start racing. They seem like great suits - INCREDIBLY lightweight.
