I really didn't like the flavor of this. It tastes like water soluble packing peanuts blended with raspberry scented candle wax. I am hoping the flavor grows on me or I can figure out how to add some other ingredients to it to make it more palatable. To be fair, this is my first time using cluster dextrin, so this may actually be good compared with other brands. I have had similar issues with flavoring on other Skratch products. It is very hit or miss. Like their gummies? Fresh, bright fruit flavor. Their electrolyte drinks? Tastes like dawn flavored dish water.

This Superfuel is life changing. It gets me through ultramarathons and double century rides without fail. Never again do I have to force down gels and feel sick to my stomach with being sweeted out midway through a race. The mellow flavor and viscosity makes it so easy to get down and get all the fuel I need without getting sick of it. Highly highly recommend. Raspberry is my favorite. I have had many friends try this and they are hooked!

I tried using this product, but following the preparation instructions on the packet resulted in a gloopy, heterogenous mess in my bottle that clogged the bite valve and rendered it unusable for my run (adding more water didn't help). Unsurprisingly, cleaning the bottle was a nightmare: I needed to scrub every surface for several minutes with hot soapy water. Not sure what I did wrong (or if I got a defective batch), but making a high-carb drink mix should not be this challenging.

Super carbs made me feel less fatigued on long runs. Easy to drink, dissolves in water, tastes good with no stomach ache or issues. Love it!

Thanks to an amazing newsletter from Skratch, I was inspired to add something new to my pre-run meal.

Super High-Carb Sport Drink Mix + applesauce

It gets paired with my microwavable mini-pancakes and peanut butter combo. It adds a great new texture as well as provides extra substance to my pre-workout meal.

I am a plant-based amateur althete with a super sensitive gut. So finding proper fuel is critical, especially for long runs. In addition to making sure my stomach can tolerate the meal, it's also important that the components can be purchased globally or are able to be packed in a carry-on suitcase. This simple, two ingredient recipe has been an amazing staple.

I personally enjoy the raspberry flavor with an unsweetened applesauce.

I have been using this combo for over 2 years and have really appreciated the consistency and results.

This is my only one drink and DIY gel that I use for gravel cycling

Highly branched cyclic dextrin is a game changer and best fuel for endurance athletes available.

I usually go with Tailwind, but most races here use Scratch at aids so I tried it out. The flavor isn’t bad, but I could see me getting turned off by it over time. Maybe not so much fully from flavor but also mouth feel. It’s got a slight viscosity to it. But my biggest gripe is the efforts to get it to mix without clumping. If I’m on the move and refill with a single serve packet and a soft flask of water, it just won’t mix up and will clog your straw. Not for me but thank you.

The highly branched cyclic dextrin (google HBCD or cluster dextrin, see photo) is a scientifically proven superior carb to maltodextrin, glucose, and fructose, and is very effective. You can actually feel the difference running with and without this fuel. You may not need 5-7 scoops for every run or cycle, 3 to 3.5 scoops works great for your typical workout. But if you’re running tempo or threshold, going 15 miles, running trail and ascending 1500ft or more, 7 scoops will surprise you with the energy it delivers. With the HBCD this is the best carb mix on the market.

Tried the super high carb for my two biggest gravel events of the year. What a game changer! Personal best times at both events and I didn't feel wiped out for days after.
