Hi!
I've been doing tris and OW competitions for years and have never had goggles kicked off. As for which ones are best, that absolutely depends on fit. Your goggles are a good fit for your face if you can push them up against your face, [U]without[U] the strap around your head, and they stay there for several seconds (like, 15s to 1+ minute). That means they are sealing to your face & not being held on solely by the force of the strap. A lot of people like the big mask-like versions for tris, but those don't fit me well...in fact, I have a smaller face & wear kids goggles made by speedo or tyr. They're cheap, they fit, and if I lose them or scratch them it's not a huge loss.
A good tip: Bring a clear (or lightly tinted) and a dark pair to each race, so you can choose based on light conditions.
Good luck & happy racing!
