HEATHER GOLLNICK
: :
"I love the TRISWIM products; with swimming a lot and not being
a real blonde, I need to get the chlorine out of my hair and TRISWIM
helped my hair not only smell great but stay blonde. The TRISWIM lotion
leaves my skin smelling and feeling fresh and clean with no chlorine
smell."

FELIPE LOUREIRO
: :
"The TRISWIM products have been a
great addition to my life. I've been swimming at least 3-4 days a
week for the past 15 years which means I've had to live with 'chlorine
hair' for that long... until I started using TRISWIM. Even my wife
noticed the difference the week I started using it. She didn't smell
the chlorine in my hair and the usual straw looking appearance changed
into normal, healthy looking hair-- I never thought it was possible.
I guess I had just got used to living with dry, chlorine-smelling
hair. I am so glad that TRISWIM hit the market."
Currently 31 and residing in San Diego, California, Felipe is a USA
Triathlon Level I certified coach as well as a certified NCSF personal
trainer. Felipe grew up in Brazil and remembers when he was 10 years
old and his dad began training for triathlons. Two years later, at
12 years old, he followed in his dad's footsteps and competed in his
first triathlon... and since then, he's raced in over 300 triathlon
races around the world, including 2 Ironmans. More

MARTHA SZUFNAROWSKI : :
"I have used the TRISWIM products for years now – and recently gave a whole set to my kids after they complained of smelling strongly like chlorine from our new community pool. The organic products are safe and gentle for the kids, and they love the smell and feel of the body wash and lotion as well as the shampoo and conditioner. Our whole family has tubes of TRISWIM products in our swim bags and showers now! "

BRIAN BOYLE : :
Just a few years ago Brian was a very sick patient in the shock trauma unit of Prince Georges Hospital. He was hit by a dump truck on his driver’s side door on his way home from swim practice. His body was crushed from the impact! He remembers being told later by his parents that he only had fifteen minutes left to live, so time definitely was of the essence that day.
That was in 2003. Now Brian has just completed a goal he had set for himself before the accident - competing in the Ford Ironman Championship in Kona. Read Brian's complete story. |

CAROLE SHARPLESS : :
"I have been using the TRISWIM products for years. As a swimmer, I am always concerned about what the harsh chlorine will do to my hair, and hate the lingering smell of chlorine on my body. The shampoo and conditioner always seem to strip my hair of the chemical residue, leaving it soft and healthy. The body wash scrub and lotion refresh my skin and leave me smelling great. I have hooked many people on these products and highly recommend them!"
In the summer of 1996, Carole competed in her first sprint triathlon at the urging of a fellow Masters Swim Class member.

KARLYN PIPES-NEILSEN : :
"As a life-long competitive swimmer I spend 5-6 sessions in the pool a week.
For years my perfume has been "eau de Chlorine." No more thanks to TRISWIM.
Finally, there is a product that eliminates the chlorine smell from my hair
and body from even from the worst of pools. The shampoo doesn't dry out my
hair, the conditioner moisturizes without being slimy and the lotion has a
clean, fresh scent. Thanks TRISWIM for stepping up and making a product that
really works! "
Professional Swimmer Karlyn Pipes-Neilsen was recently inducted
into the Internationals Masters Swimming Hall of Fame. Karlyn has
set over 180 FINA Masters World Records spanning four age-groups and has set

TIM HOLA : :
" I have been using TRISLIDE skin-glide for my runs and it works great on my feet to prevent blisters. And the TRISWIM product line is exactly what I have
been looking for. Ever since I started swimming 25 years ago, I have
always had swimmers hair; that chlorine bleached hair that made me
smell like a swimming pool. I could not find a remedy until I discovered
TRISWIM. The Organic Aloe Vera in addition to the other ingredients
in TRISWIM make it so that I look forward to swim workouts. I know
I'll be fresh and clean after each and every time in the pool. Perhaps
the best part is that the TRISWIM lotion makes me feel and smell terrific
when I put on my suit for work!"
Currently 33, Tim is entering his 13th year racing triathlons. He
was a swimmer since he was 7, swam through high school, and then joined
the rowing team at the University of Iowa in 1993. Running was a large
part of his rowing training, and he already was a swimmer, so Tim
soon began biking and did his first triathlon with his dad in 1995
in Des Moines, IA. He has been hooked ever since and is always looking
for that next challenge. Since that 1st race, some of his top honors
have been: Triathlete Magazine's 2005 Amateur Triathlete of the Year,
Triathlete Magazines 2006 Amateur Triathlete of the Year - Honorable
Mention, 5th American at 2006 Ironman Hawaii (8:58), 1st Overall 2005
US 1/2 Ironman National Championship, 6th Overall at 2006 Timberman
Triathlon, 13th Overall at 2005 Ironman Florida. More

RYAN HUMES
: :
"To compete at a high level in this
sport requires a minimum of 3-4 days spent in the pool. After an hour
and a half in the pool, nothing removes that odorous chlorine smell
and feel better than TRISWIM. Shampoo, Conditioner, Body Wash, and
Lotion - they've got you covered from head to toe!"
Born on March 25, 1979 in Easton, PA Ryan now resides in San Dimas,
CA. With an athletic background as a Varsity Rower at La Salle University,

KEVIN KOSKELLA
: :
“By using the Tri-Swim products, I have
been able to kill the chlorine smell from my skin and replace it with
a pleasant citrus smell. What sold me on Tri-Swim (besides the name)
was waking up the next day after swimming and not smelling chlorine
on myself! If I use the body wash and then the lotion immediately
afterward, my dry skin is completely minimized. The chlorine fighting
shampoo has also allowed my hair to grow normally again instead of
breaking off. I highly recommend these products if you are swimming
in typical highly chlorinated pools. Excellent Frangrance(citrus).
Effectiveness: Wonderful. These products worked the best for me. Overall
Rating: 5/5."
Coaching Masters Swim Teams in San Francisco and San Diego since 2001
and being an accomplished swimmer, earning the highly prized All-American
status at the college level, Kevin Koskella is a leader in aiding
the beginner and experienced triathlete towards excellence in the
swimming portion of the race.
Kevin’s coaching philosophy differs from the traditional

most recently competed in the World Masters Swimming Championships
at Stanford University. More
