Louis Gearneau have worked with some of the best triathletes in the world to create their new top-of-the-line, no compromise, fully sublimated elite clothing collection.  Built of water-shedding materials with a focus on muscle support and aerodynamics, the Tritek Elite brings pro-level clothing to clubs and regional teams- including the 1,600 member strong LA Tri Club.  Hit the jump for more images and links, to learn what a turbulator is, and why you might want need one…

The new Custom TriTek Elite Collection  is designed with an upper abdomen turbolator that keeps turbulence close to the body and improves the body sliding motion in water. This collection offers a great fit and follows body contour with design of several panels located in strategic places to reduce water resistance and improves hydrodynamics. The windtunnel tested Tritek fabric improves aerodynamics for speeds ranging from 15 to 45 mph, and it also has a water repellent treatment to absorb less water.

“For 2010, we have really revolutionized the triathlon scene offering the latest innovations in apparel,” said Pierre Perron, International Marketing Director. “We have spent countless hours with Pro Triathlete, Chris Legh and countless hours in windtunnels testing and retesting until perfection was achieved. I think our efforts have paid off and 2010 will be monumental for our participation in the triathlon industry.”
