Well, there is a lot to like in the photo. Personally, I could not see very far ahead with the head position unless you have X-ray vision through your forehead. In all the TT courses, I have raced on forward visibility is a must. Pursuit at the track during a race with referees watching the track is different to an extent. I think you need a different helmet and the ability to lower your neck while rotating your head up. Frontal area remains unchanged but forward visibility increases. Not so easy to do.

The jersey / skin suit, assuming that is your race set up, has to be a lot tighter. I see too many wrinkles. It takes me a couple of minutes to put mine on with talcum on my arms and shoulder and upper back. I have to be very careful not to rip the seams.

But hey, you look amazing, you have a great position, you have state / records results, FTP w/kg to die for, you ride with Thurlow and Horner on Zwift. Who am I to even comment.
