⚡ CARBOHYDRATES ⚡
SIMPLE VS COMPLEX CARBOHYDRATES
Tailwind uses simple carbohydrates (dextrose and sucrose) as opposed to complex carbohydrates (maltodextrin, glucose polymers, super starches, food).
Fast-acting carbs are rapidly absorbed in the GI tract, rapidly transported to muscles cells, and rapidly metabolised to provide energy to working muscles.
Long-acting carbs such as super starches, complex carbs and food are absorbed more slowly, and must be metabolically converted to fast-acting sugars before they can be transported to the muscles and used as energy. All this takes time (and energy).
Remember, you are running a calorie deficit from the get go so Tailwind gives you fuel in the most efficient way possible – it’s delivered in the form that your body already uses.
The result: Tailwind Endurance Fuel doesn’t hang out in the stomach and cause GI distress

Tip Tuesday 💡
“Don’t wait until you’re gasping.”
It sounds obvious, but it’s one of the easiest mistakes to make — especially on cooler days or during slower efforts.
You get going, you feel fine… and before you know it, your energy dips, your stomach turns, or your mood crashes.
Here’s the fix:
👉 Take small sips of your Tailwind every 10–15 minutes.
It keeps your energy levels steady, your stomach happy, and yep — even your mindset in check. No more mile-9 meltdowns or mid-run grumps.
Remember, staying hydrated isn’t just about avoiding dehydration — it’s about performance, recovery, and feeling good from start to finish.
📌 Save this for your next run or ride and see the difference!
💬 How often do you sip when you're out there?

When someone takes the time to drop us a message and share their experiences with Tailwind, it just makes our day. So much so today we just wanted to share this lovely DM we received from
Freddy 🫠
“Hello! My name’s Freddie and I just thought I’d drop you a quick message to say I came across your sachets which I picked up in Joe Browns, Llanberis, before doing the Welsh 3000s last weekend.
I normally don’t rate many of these types of products for endurance events but have to say yours were unreal!
I had 4 to keep me going throughout the 21 hour challenge and loved them! Tasted great and I got no cramp which I normally get.
I wouldn’t normally message but they were so good I thought I should!”

Getting nutrition right for a long day training or racing is tough. Keeping track of food, drinks, gels, bars... etc. and it just gets tougher as fatigue sets in. Are you getting enough calories? Too many? Staying hydrated? Just how many electrolyte tablets do you need anyway?
Tailwind simplifies all that by giving your body what it needs – complete energy, electrolytes, and hydration in a simple drink with clean, light flavours. Tailwind is designed to maximise absorption of fuel, water, and electrolytes while being easy on the digestive system.
Mixing with water Tailwind’s glucose/sucrose fuel takes advantage of how our bodies absorb fuel to maximise intake of calories. Once in the bloodstream, Tailwind’s glucose fuel directly powers muscles, sparing precious glycogen stores and allowing you to go longer and at higher intensities without 'bonking'. Tailwind’s electrolyte profile mimics what you’re sweating out, so you don’t have to take separate electrolyte pills to make up for what’s not in your drink.
From thick textures to sickly sweet tastes, most drinks, gels, and chews are hard to take for more than a couple hours; that’s where our endurance experience comes in. Tailwind is deliberately mild and balances just enough sweetness to keep you drinking with the saltiness your body craves while sweating.
Customers describe the flavours as “clean” and “light” with a mouth feel as close to water as you can get while still meeting your nutrition needs. Hydration-Pack friendly: dissolving completely on contact with water, and cleans up with just a quick rinse.
