Newton Running, Land, Lever, Lift

new colors and 3 years going strong. Newton is coming into it's own and really taking hold not only in the USAT but also in running, marathons as well. The shoes are light, well build, fast and best of all the patented Action/Reaction Technology™. When using the ultra-efficient Land-Lever-Lift midfoot or forefoot running gait, the technology absorbs and then returns your own energy back to you. It's not fancy technospeak, and it's no gimmick. It's a revolutionary way of building a running shoe based on Sir Isaac Newton's third law of motion – "For every ACTION, there is an equal and opposite REACTION." Loosely translated, it means you get a boost of forward energy with every single stride you take.
Wearing the shoes will get you noticed and for very good reason you will be going fast. The stand out, neon yellow, go fast red and orange are the best thought out marketing that one has seen in a while.
They also have the shoe test results to back it up.

ZIPP, Tangente Tubular Tires

They make some of the fastest wheels around ZIPP has now added tires to compliment their wheels.

"To cut through the wind, we've used our patented ABLC dimples to mitigate the "un-aero-ness" of a round shape at the wheel's leading edge. It took us 14 months and 2 trips to the wind tunnel to get it right, but the dimples will save you 1-3 watts, or up to 9 seconds over 40km. That's a big deal.
But the Tangente is not just a delicate special event tire. Thanks to our partnership with Vittoria, the Tangente sports a durable yet supple 290tpi casing. Because the dimpled pattern resists cracking so well, we're able to use an exclusive an extra-light rubber compound for low rolling resistance and high cornering grip in wet and dry conditions.
The Tangente's 21mm width optimizes aerodynamics, cornering ability, and durability. Average weight 282g, /- 15g. 38mm, overall length, approximately 34mm functional length. Includes tire pressure chart to optimize rolling resistance by rider weight and front/rear use."

With a wheel set why would you not buy the tire that matches or is at least designed for their wheels. Seems like a know brainer.

Tight & Right, Imperial BoardShorts

The fabric doesn't matter, its all in the draw string. Kids pant have this waistband that is adjustable so they can were bigger sizes without the pant falling down, not sure why this was abandoned but it seems as though Imperial Motion has solved this problem. No more showing crack, the draw sting looks like any normal draw string would look like on a boardshort except it goes all the way around your waist like when you were a kid. The only problem is the choices or styles to choose from, you can't win them all.

Ultrasounds with a Smart phone

As with all technology things get smaller and cooler. Like a smart phone that can take ultrasound pictures. Imagine emergency response with these type of gadgets, police officers who arrive first that the scene.
With the help of a USD$100,000 grant from Microsoft, Dr William Richard, associate professor of computer science and engineering at Washington University, and David Zar, research associate in computer science and engineering, have made USB ultrasound probes compatible with a smartphone. To accomplish this, the pair had to optimize the power consumption, data transfer rate as well as the image formation algorithms of the probe. With that achieved, it was possible to build smartphone-compatible USB ultrasound probes for imaging different areas of the body, such as the kidney, liver, bladder and eyes, as well as the prostate veins and arteries. more at gizmag.com

Swim Guard Vest

Yanko has some of the best ideas around. Swim Guard Vest is a vest that is worn like a Chest Harness with a bit more support around the neck, keeping your head afloat. The device is form fitting and I could see this being built into wetsuits in the near future. The really cool feature is the GPS that is built in. I can see Triathlons offering this as an options to those a little hesitant of the water, like theNew York City Triathlon, the Hudson can be scary.

Map Out Cycle Routes In Advance!

Sometimes all it takes is techno, gadget guy to get into exercise and WHAM you have another cool device.
Here is an explanation from Yanko Design
The neat gadget clamps up to the handle bar and includes audio as well as visual guide. You simply need to hook up the device to your comp and download the desired route from an online map. Turn by turn, the VeloCity rattles of the directions and simultaneously displays the map on the screen. Of course GPS and Bluetooth come into play as well.

Chrome, the next Timbiktu (maybe)

Looking out for functional stuff is hard Timbuktu makes some of the best bags, they used to be part of the USAT Membership. That being said you just can't wear their bags out. However it seems like there is a new player in the works, ok maybe not new but up and coming CHROME, Chrome was founded in Boulder, CO by a couple of guys who needed a bag that lasted forever. They began sewing in their garage using the toughest material they could find. A company came out of that with a philosophy of building stuff that would function well in tough conditions and would last a lifetime.

Eight years later we moved our operations to San Francisco. Today, our production has outgrown the garage and we make our products all over the world. We remain committed to using the best materials, hardware and design to bring products to our customers that they can count on.

There's not a lot of nonsense in our gear, just materials and construction that serve a purpose and last a lifetime. We stand behind everything we make.

Now they make much more then just bags (don't they all), their Light Weight Shins Slate

Made of 4-way Tweeve™ Durastretch™ fabric, a durable, breathable fabric, that retains its shape and is also water-repellant

Cut high in back and low in front

Keeper pockets

Lightly padded chamois seat and inseam

Reinforced hem

Zipper and secured cargos

Articulated knees

Got to like when companies see a need and address it. 

coldblack - Sun Reflector – UV Protector

Got to hand it to the swiss, yes they did have the Swiss Army Knife and now they have ColdBlack. Dark colors heat up stronger when exposed to direct sunlight compared to light colors. This no longer needs to happen! Now there is coldblack®, a special finishing technology for textiles which reduces heat build-up and provides reliable protection from UV rays.

The coldblack® finishing only contains „bluesign® approved“ components. „bluesign® approved“ components are as low as possible in harmful substances, making them benign to mankind and the environment and encouraging the economical and ecological use of resources in the production process.

Cars have horns, Bikes should too! Airzound

Not sure why more bicyclist have not mounted or used air horns to keep them save, like cars, but with Airzound they could change that. All of us have close calls, yelled, screamed #$*&#@ at motorist. Airzound is trying to change that and also claims it is the worlds loudest bike horn at 115 db.

On the decibel scale, the smallest audible sound (near total silence) is 0 dB. A sound 10 times more powerful is 10 dB. A sound 100 times more powerful than near total silence is 20 dB. A sound 1,000 times more powerful than near total silence is 30 dB. Here are some common sounds and their decibel ratings:

Near total silence - 0 dB
A whisper - 15 dB
Normal conversation - 60 dB
A lawnmower - 90 dB
A car horn - 110 dB
A rock concert or a jet engine - 120 dB
A gunshot or firecracker - 140 dB

So by How Stuff Works the Airzound is just above a car horn, so people should take notice since it will be a little louder and different.

Really the horn should have someone screaming as though they are getting run over that would really jolt drivers to be more aware.
