Be careful when making U turns with high crosswinds. My rear disc broke loose and swung out I almost ate the pavement when making a fast U turn. The Triathlon was right next to the beach so the wind was out of the east and going west and the course was a straight shot north make a u turn and come right back.

Thanks for the tips guys, my race was today and I got 3rd overall! Hopefully the wheels helped :-)

Just about a week ago I got a disc wheel trispoke, combo. I have only been able to take the wheelset on one real ride, and I have a tri tomorrow. The course does have some twists and turns, so my question is does anybody have any pointers for riding with a disc? All input is appreciated, thanks in advance.
