Question for the swimmers.
I`ve recently replaced my nose clip (unfortunately I have to wear one) with one of these http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Swimming-Nose-...item20b8d06496 the problem is, it won`t stay on my nose for more than a couple of lengths (same type as my old one, which I lost). I tried one of these http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/NEW-SPEEDO-SWI...item19c035c03c and it lasted about 2 seconds, flew off and never saw it again 
I`m just wondering what types other people used, maybe I`ve missed some other types, cheers
*****And no, I don`t have a big nose :-)*****

Tbh never used nose clips and don`t understand why people have to, as you should keep a small trickle of air constantly coming out of your nose at all times (same as I taught hundreds of kids to do).
But have seen people using a spring clip type that the people fit a length of elastic to, that comes around the back of the neck, so helps hold this in place.

If I don`t wear one I have a constant stream of snot oozing out 
The ones I`ve tried just won`t stay on, they slide off. The clip type which ties behind the neck sounds interesting 
Basically I`m just wondering if anyone has any success with any particular type

I used to swim competitively and sort of got used to the water, and youdo get used to it and so it stops.

No, it just slides off. The best one I had is the other pink one I had before I replaced it (with same type)...but for some reason this one doesn`t wanna stay on. I read on a triathlete site that someone complained about a Zogg one being too tight....sounds good to me
