You're only saying that as you know I don't 'do' facebook' coz I ain't got no friends

I'm being dragged in, kicking and screaming, by some very dodgy individuals. If you give me your last Rolo, I'll be your friend.

Oh, and PS. Good idea Magna

OI Raf, i sent you an email, did you get it?

Rafiki · June 2017

yeah, I've been looking into things and discussing it with other interested parties before I got back to you.

As I said yesterday, thanks for the updates and I know stand corrected....

Sorry ISB don't know why that took so long to show up in the thread, I posted it immediately after your first query

There's a ghost in the machine.......

looking good....looking forward to seeing the monaco style tops.....It will be great if we can get a good design and supplier so that individuals can take control and responsibility over their own orders

seren nos · July 2017

past the knee or past the shoulder I read Bobby.....I presume with past the shoulder that trisuit above would not be race legal like the old vest top style trisuits

Magna Carter · July 2017

rules have changed Seren.... down to elbow is fine now for everything but standard and sprint run under ITU rules... anything of any distance for Ironman or BTF is fine.

Hi Seren, out of hgd current small order no one has ordered a Monaco style top but I will get the company to do a design mock up to show you and everyone else prior to the September order.

Both ideas sound good to me ... either a frequent password change or a FB gatekeeper as such? We do need to keep that exclusivity without imposing rules as such, that said I bet if we looked back at historic orders that a fair few of those will never be seen again and the kit will end up on eBay, that's a chance we take but its a risk we can minimise

I really do think we need a better process that can produce good kit, at a reasonable price with less time consumption for one person, this seems to deliver for the moment. LG kit delivered well for us for many years and I believe if they want UK/European business then they need to change.

Any feedback from the Pirates who saw the kit at Outlaw?

Flat Footed · August 2017

Ghost, I have on of the new tri tops and I think its brilliant. Sizing is very good and I will be ordering more kit in the next kit order.

You mean its very generous in the mid riff area

Slotwin · September 2017

Err, at the risk of being shouted at for not reading the ENTIRE thread.....but where do I put my order? I know Duda told me I could so on the website from 1st Sept but I omitted to ask the rather obvious question of which website.

Slotwin · September 2017

I also appear to have lost my avatar. Clearly need to go to bed, get up and start the day again.

Hi Slotwin, I was hoping to start a new thread at the start of September but I have a huge amount of stuff going on in my life this months So I will either start a thread at the start of next month or send you details of where you can get Kit. .

Slotwin · September 2017

thanks Duda and take care. I will wait to hear from you.

WildWill · September 2017

Kit looks good

Gambatt3 · September 2017

Just looking in. Last few posts answer my questions

Scuba Trooper · September 2017

Definitely need new kit my tri shorts are looking very worn. Interested to hear comments from those who tried new kit, particularly how are the Chamois. Tempted to go for suit rather than top and shorts but how easy is it to have a wee? Whats the back pocket on the suits like?

Magna Carter · September 2017

i've got the sleeved suit, and i'm very happy with it. The Chamois can be specced depending on what grade of suit you order.... I've got the 'gold' version, which is one down from the top 'platinum' variety, and the chamois is fine... I've only used it to Oly distance so far, but at the range its been absolutely perfect...
There is a single central pocket and two smaller side ones IIRC (away cycling in the sun, so can't check!) which are easily accessible, and a decent size, yet don't seem to balloon at speed in either the water, or on the bike... imho, much much better kit than the LG stuff.

As for weeing... you could just about pull the leg up, otherwise it would be a wriggle out of the suit, or just swallow your pride and piss yourself!

Gambatt3 · October 2017

Just a 'bump'

Velvet · October 2017

Wanting to wear the yella and black. When is this going ahead
