Tailwind Nutrition Endurance Fuel, Carbohydrate & Electrolyte Sports Drink Mix Powder, Gluten-Free, Vegan, Tropical Buzz, 30 Servings (Caffeinated)

I love this drink! I’ve been using it for over 2 years now. Gives a good energy boost, has a great taste, and you feel the hydration! Great product!!

This is the best intraworkout, race nutrition you could even dream of using. It will literally give you wings. I'm a competitive triathlete and runner and it saves me in every race. I ran a 10 mile race and you can literally see what miles my tailwind kicked in. My pace was at least 1 minute faster per mile. Since its a powder, its completely digestible and causes no GI upset. The flavor on this one is good and I like the caffeine kick. (Personally the Cola flavor for me was a hard pass) My whole family uses it and I'll never need another product. This one is it.

I first purchased a variety pack to try a bunch of the flavors, and honestly I liked them all. Tropical buzz was my fav, but I’m sure at some point I’ll switch it up for variety. I started trading for mountain bike races a couple years ago and my coach highly recommended tailwind. Before that I was trying to cobble together my own race fuel from various sources but this makes it so easy and is tasty. It fulfills all my nutritional needs and keeps me riding for longer. I highly recommend this product if you are an endurance racer. It’s not something I would recommend if you are not pushing your system. I.e. if you just want a delicious beverage, this is not for you. This is for serious athletes or people who simply push their systems to the limits. Flavor wise, it can feel overly sweet, but as an athlete that is one thing that needs to be replenished. I have not found a better product, imo, for this purpose.

I tried Tailwind on the recommendation of a friend training for a 100 mile ultra marathon. I've tried a few other similar products but have always been dissatisfied for one reason or another. In ththe past 2-3 weeks of using Tailwind for any of my longer trail/mountain runs (>7 miles), I've been impressed. I feel energized and haven't had any leg cramping issues, even on runs of 20+ miles. Haven't experienced any GI issues. I usually run with gels and electrolyte tabs by haven't had to use them since starting Tailwind. Tailwind tastes pretty good and is light and refreshing. No residue or nastiness in my Camelbaks afterwards. My only complaint is that at the end of a longer run, I intensely crave nothing but regular water. It's almost as if my thirst is not satisfied when I get towards the end. Maybe I'm getting too many electrolytes? I've been using a scoop less than the lower recommended concentration and that seems to be helping. I think I need to continue playing with the concentration. Bottom line: I haven't been dealing with any leg cramps since using Tailwind and I feel great during my runs. I will continue to use it whenever using my Camelbak and it is definitely a major part of my race plan for an upcoming 50k. 4.5 stars in my book.

The powder mixes well and tastes great. No clumping or abnormal texture. Not too sweet, but enough to make it enjoyable. Definitely helped from a performance standpoint while pushing longer miles, and left me with plenty of energy in the tank!

Use this to supplement gels for my last marathon as my stomach has become volatile. Obsessed. Was very gentle on my stomach and tasted nice enough! I’ve put the folks in my run club on and now we are a Tailwind cult.

****UPDATE**** Tailwind contacted me almost immediately, turns out it had nothing to do with them and that it’s in fact AMAZON who stores the product improperly. Even though it wasn’t their fault they still sent me a replacement bag free of charge and made sure to overnight it so I had it for my race. Huge huge fan of this company, I was too quick to judge Horrible quality control. Received my order, and it took an act of god to actually open it, tried ripping the pre cut areas, wouldn’t open, tried cutting with scissors even down to the ziplock portion still nothing. I ended up having to use a razor blade to make an incision to get it open. Then after all that, 80% of the tail wind was a solid block, and the rest was smaller clusters of tailwind.

Great for training with a bit more kick with the caffeine. I sometimes use it to start my ride if I’m dragging, or use it to end my ride to come in with a little extra zip.

I notice a huge difference running ultras and marathons using this! Less thirsty and twice the energy. The hype is real with tailwind and you won’t regret buying it! Love it!

Been using this product for several years. I run and bike and this electrolyte mix has never been a problem (unlike others I've tried that bother my insides!)

They said it would be delivered the next day. I hunted around everywhere for this and the closest I could find it was about a 2 hour drive. Normally a drive like that doesn't bother me much but I would have had to wait for the next day to go get it anyway. Worked a treat!

My husband loves the flavour and it was delivered pretty quick.

Been doing longdistance cycling indoor and outdoor. Its the only nutrition I ever needed.
