Triathlon equipment is some of the most sophisticated, forward-thinking, precision-engineered athletic gear on the planet. Yet it has traditionally been relegated to the back page, to a small section on larger websites. The purpose of TriRig.com is to change that situation. TriRig puts triathlon equipment in the spotlight. No clutter, no distractions. Just gear.
Nick Salazar, Publisher
Nick was introduced to triathlon in 2000 as a means to stay in shape, have fun, and enjoy the outdoors. At the University of Colorado, Nick served as Team President, and led the Buffs to a 2005 National Championship title in Lake Havasu, Arizona. People came to know him as the ultimate gear-head. A tinkerer. A gear monger. He's obsessed with the cutting-edge of equipment. And after over a decade of involvement in this sport, he's more excited about it than ever.
Nick is the rare individual who can truly be said to both photographer and journalist. Many writers can take a decent picture, and many photographers can write an article. But few have a genuine talent in both camps as Nick does. You can find his professional photography in the pages of Inside Triathlon, Triathlete, TRI Magazine, Men's Journal, and more. Countless manufacturers rely on Nick's work in their advertising, and Nick's client list outside the world of athletics has included the likes of Gizmodo, Mazda, and even Skymall. As a journalist, Nick is responsible for all the content on TriRig.com, from concept, to testing, to final writeup and publication. His writing talents are also used on a freelance basis by other triathlon publications.
TriRig is Nick's labor of love, bringing together his passions for photography, journalism, and of course, insane amounts of gear.
Thanks for visiting, and enjoy your stay!
-Nick
