The Ready Sweat Go view

Born from a long day that went wrong

Tailwind started after co-founder Jeff Vierling's stomach turned a hard day at the Leadville 100 into a very hard day, and something he wanted to fix. He and Jenny began testing a simpler mix of carbohydrate and electrolytes on the trails around Durango, Colorado.

That origin still makes sense today and to us at RSG. If you're not careful, endurance fuelling can easily become complicated. Tailwind gives you another option: put the fuel in your bottle, keep the routine simple and practice it until it feels familiar.

It will not suit everyone, and it does not make every session need sports nutrition. But for longer training days, ultras, rides and events where drinking your fuel is practical, it has earned its place in the RSG range.

Useful answers

What is Tailwind Endurance Fuel?

Tailwind Endurance Fuel is a carbohydrate-and-electrolyte drink mix for use during longer training and events. It is mixed with water and sipped as part of a practiced fuelling plan.

How should I mix Tailwind?

Follow the instructions on the exact pack. Tailwind UK's current guidance is two to three scoops in 590–710ml of water, sipped over an hour. Start in training and adjust for the session, conditions and your own tolerance.

Should I choose a pouch, box or single stick?

Choose a pouch for regular use, a box for measured sticks on the move, or a single if you want to test a flavour. The flavour and caffeine choice still matter, whichever size you buy.

Which Tailwind flavours contain caffeine?

Raspberry and Tropical contain caffeine. The other Endurance Fuel flavours in the current RSG range are caffeine-free. Count caffeine from coffee, gels, chews and other products too, and practice your plan in training.

Can Tailwind replace gels and bars?

For some athletes, Endurance Fuel can provide most of the carbohydrate and electrolytes they use during a longer session. Others combine it with food, gels, bars or chews. Practice the full plan before race day and make sure it supplies the energy and fluid you need.

Is Tailwind Endurance Fuel suitable for common dietary needs?

Tailwind describes its current UK Endurance Fuel as suitable for vegetarians and vegans and free from wheat, gluten, soy and dairy. Recipes and manufacturing can change, so check the ingredients and allergen information on the exact product before buying if this matters to you.

What is the difference between Endurance Fuel and Recovery Mix?

Endurance Fuel is designed to be mixed and used during training or events, and contains carbohydrate and electrolytes. Recovery Mix is a separate after-training product for muscle repair and recovery, with protein, carbohydrates and electrolytes.

Why buy Tailwind from Ready Sweat Go?

You can shop by use and pack size, compare caffeine options and choose the exact flavour before adding it. If you are unsure which route suits your session, use our Fuel Finder or ask us.

Size guide Pouch, box or single?

It depends on what you need: how much you want to buy and whether you need to carry it while training. Pouches are ideal for regular use from home, stick boxes give you measured servings on the move or at events, and singles are useful for testing flavours.
