Depends on the road surface. I nominate you to take the first run to test the surface ;)

Re: Worlds Ottawa...masters and pros hybrid.
Thanks for that. It just sounded weird to announce the winner at the end of the qualifiers! I guess the commentary was added to the footage later. BTW nice skating there Robo.

Re: Worlds Ottawa...masters and pros hybrid.
That was Great! Fantastic to have such pro coverage. "this skateboarding craze is sweeping the world!" Any more?
Did I miss something about the weather, why was the Hybrid decided on qualifiers?

That is disappointing that it wont work with standard beacons. I 'm sure you did remember this but you need to face the little receiver window to the beacons (something i keep forgetting to do sometimes). More expensive receivers seem to have a IR window on each side of the timer. I wonder it it wor...

I've not found a way to look at lap one without resetting the timer. I usually finish my run press the clr button (for less than 2 sec) check my time walk back up the hill and reset before my next run. If im really keen to save the time I take a picture with my iphone. I like the idea of every other...

See my above post. In my comparisom with the Tag Heur timer it was very consistent. I could look at my timer, subtract 0.4 or 0.5 and accurately predict my official time. I think accuracy is down to the beacons as they shoot out a cone shapped :) trigger beam so the intensity of the beam would gradu...

Hey I got ripped off! I didn't get no free velcro! I tested mine at a dedicated timed slalom day and was able to compare it to the ASRAs (http://www.skateboardracing.org.au/) new very expensive Tag Heuer IR timing system. My timer worked faultlessly all day (so far batteries have lasted for 5 or 6 s...

Yeah it does multiple laps - after one run I am in lap 2 and I just press a button to go back and look at lap 1 which is my point to point time. If you had multiple beacons you could work out sector times too. The only real limitation is the 7 sec minimum retrigger time (not adjustable as with some ...

Cheap Timer
I have just picked up this cheap lap timer via US Ebay for only $65US. http://www.sumomoto.com/ezlap_lap_timer.htm After a couple of tests it seems to work perfectly and is compatible with other lap timing beacons.
