Your Dedicated Partner in Triathlon Success

Tri Nation Australia was founded right here on the Gold Coast by a group of passionate triathletes who saw the need for a truly comprehensive resource for the sport. We're not just retailers; we are coaches, mechanics, training partners, and fellow competitors who understand the unique demands and incredible rewards of triathlon. Our mission is simple: to empower athletes of all levels to achieve their personal bests, whether that's finishing a first sprint triathlon or qualifying for an international championship.

Located conveniently at 14 Esplanade in picturesque Burleigh Heads, our store is designed to be a welcoming hub. It's a place where you can find the latest high-performance bikes, cutting-edge wetsuits, durable running gear, and all the essential accessories. But more importantly, it's a place where you can find expert advice, share training stories, and connect with a supportive community that shares your passion.

Our team lives and breathes triathlon. We've swum in the open waters off the Gold Coast beaches, battled the winds on the highway, and pounded the pavement on the run courses. This firsthand experience allows us to provide tailored recommendations, insightful coaching, and practical support that goes far beyond just selling gear. We believe in building lasting relationships with our athletes, helping them navigate the challenges of training, prevent injuries, and celebrate every milestone.

Whether you're looking for a detailed bike fit, a structured training plan, video analysis of your swim stroke, or just need some encouragement before race day, Tri Nation Australia is here for you. We are deeply integrated into the local triathlon scene, participating in and supporting events across Queensland. Our commitment is to foster the growth of the sport and help every athlete unlock their full potential in the swim, bike, and run.
