The New Wave Launchpad for placing in your triathlon transition area is the best. This mat is better than any towel you may use for the same reason. A small micro-fiber topped mat you can wipe your feet off before putting on your cycling or running shoes. Nothing is more annoying than grass or small pebbles in your shoes after leaving transition. The New Wave Launchpad helps eliminate this problem. It is portable and compact, roll it up and put in your transition bag. It measures about 30 inches long by 17.5 inches wide and is only 2mm thick. The bright color will help you identify your transition set up.
I find it useful to keep on the pool deck helping dry your feet off when exiting the pool. While swimming laps it's great for setting your pull buoy, goggles, swim paddles or water bottle on. It is also helpful if you sit on the pool’s edge getting in or out to not snag your swimsuit. Of course it’s not just for using around the pool or in transition, you can find many uses for it. I keep mine in the trunk to use when changing in and out of my mountain bike, cycling or running shoes before and after ride/run. The uses are endless.
