Our Friends

Some of the companies below we have commercial relationships with, some we don’t. What is consistent across all these brands, people and organisations, is that we know them, we have used them, and we 100% think they are great. If you have any questions contact them direct or email us: info@fitandabel.com with your query.

Aloe Up – Skin and Care Products

One of the best things about being an open water swimmer and swim coach is the sunshine, it’s also one of the worst! Endless sunshine, wind, water reflection and cloud reflection damages the skin, especially in New Zealand. Finding a sun screen that not only protects but is good for the skin and the environment was a quest. I am comfortable to admit that surfers beat us too it; Aloe Up is quite simply the answer to all of our UV problems. We can be am reassured that I’ll have lasting UV protection for the day that is not at the expense of my health nor the oceans. Nice job Aloe Up!

Body Mechanic

Wayne has been building a reputation working with people of all works of life in Christchurch for the last couple of years. He has been working closely with swimmers which is helped enormously by Wayne being a swimmer himself. His holistic approach to body movement has helped many of us including those at FitandAbel. Injury management, pain reduction, injury prevention … go see Wayne.

Mojo Coaching

We have been working with coach Jo Knight of Mojo Coaching since our inception in Christchurch. Quite simply Jo is an exceptionally approachable, motivating, knowledgeable and professional multi sport coach. We love working with Jo to help athletes achieve their goals and dreams.

Ocean & Leisure

Why? Based in London Leo and his team have been helping FitandAbel swimmers get the right wetsuit for a number of seasons. Great customer service and knowledge on how to fit you with the right wetsuit for your ability and event. Always try before you purchase. The team at Ocean Leisure will help you get it right the first time. I’ve never had bad feedback from a swimmer I have sent to Ocean Leisure.

Pure Sports Nutrition

Why? We have been looking for a drink we can use when swimming that does the job but is gentle on the stomach. We reckon Pure are onto a winner. Their Carb/Electrolyte drinks are made from fruit, no preservatives or artificial colour. It’s a sucrose/glucose mix. Check out their Endurance products

SwimEars

We’ve been on and on about how great SurfEars are for the last couple of years … now the same people have introduced a model of ear plug designed specifically for open water swimmers.  SwimEars can be custom fitted to your ear, allow you to continue hearing instead of blocking out all sound and come with a non intrusive strap that links the plugs (stored under your cap) and stops you losing a plug in the unlikely event it does fall out.

SwimForTri

Why? Dan Bullock runs SwimforTri. He is London based. Super knowledgeable. Super nice. We aren’t always available in London as we are only there in summer, when we get inquiries and we aren’t around we send them to the other Dan

Propeller Swim School

Zoggs

Zoggs swim goggles: We didn’t specifically choose this relationship, our swimmers did. By far the most popular goggle with our open water swimmers is the Zoggs Predator Flex Reactor Goggle . Zoggs make a great range of swim equipment that we believe will enhance your open water swim experience.
