Monster Timing
Active timing Ireland

Precision timing when every second matters.

Monster Timing delivers high-precision active timing and live course visibility for triathlon, aquathlon, duathlon, and multisport events across Ireland and Northern Ireland.

Why active timing

More visibility from start to finish.

Active timing gives organisers cleaner data, stronger live coverage, and more confidence when the result is close.

0.004-second accuracy

Active transponders emit their own signal instead of relying on a mat to power or detect them. That makes them a strong choice for close finishes and detailed split tracking.

  • High-precision finish decisions
  • Fast reads at speed
  • Reliable split capture

Built for multisport conditions

Active timing works across swim, bike, and run, including wet, muddy, coastal, and high-speed conditions where passive systems can be less suitable.

  • Waterproof transponders
  • Triathlon and aquathlon ready
  • Suitable for cycling speeds

Live athlete tracking

Track athletes through key points on the course and give families, spectators, and commentators useful progress updates while the event is running.

  • Live checkpoint progress
  • Remote visibility for long courses
  • Useful data for safety oversight

Active and passive options

The right solution depends on your course, format, and budget. We can combine active and passive timing where that gives your event the best balance of accuracy, scale, and cost.

  • Triathlon, duathlon, and aquathlon
  • Running and cycling events
  • Hyrox and multisport formats
Frequently asked questions

Questions organisers ask about timing.

What is active timing?

Active timing uses transponders that emit their own signal, making it suitable for high-precision finish decisions and detailed split capture.

When is active timing useful?

It is particularly useful for close finishes, high-speed cycling, long courses, and events where organisers need dependable visibility through multiple checkpoints.

Can active timing work in wet conditions?

Yes. Active timing is suitable for swim, bike, run, coastal, muddy, and other demanding multisport conditions.

Do I need active timing for my event?

Not always. We recommend the timing approach around your course, event format, athlete numbers, accuracy needs, and budget. Active and passive systems can also be combined.
