WHY ACTIVE TIMING IS THE GOLD STANDARD FOR TRIATHLON?

Built for precision. Designed for performance. Trusted by the world’s top triathlons.

What is Active Timing?
Active timing uses a battery-powered transponder that emits its own signal. Unlike passive chips, it doesn’t rely on a mat to power or detect it - making it faster, more reliable, and accurate in all conditions.

Key Advantages of Active Timing

🎯 Unmatched Accuracy
Up to 0.004 seconds – ideal for close finishes and split tracking

📡 Real-Time Results 
Athletes’ splits displayed live online - ideal for spectators, commentators, and remote friends & family.

📶 Superior Read Rates
100% detection up to 120 km/h — no missed detections, even in tough conditions

🌊 Waterproof & Triathlon-Proof
Works perfectly in swim, bike, and run – no signal loss in water or mud


Active vs Passive – Why Passive Falls Short for Triathlon

Text Active (✅) Passive (❌)
Swim-proof ✅ Fully waterproof ❌ Often fails in wet or submerged use
Precision ✅ 0.004s accuracy ❌ Limited to 0.2s
Detection ✅Detects chip at 2m+ height ❌ Requires close mat contact
Close Finishes ✅ Accurate to the cm ❌ Risk of tie/error in tight finishes
High Speed ✅ Up to 120 km/h detection ❌ Not built for cycling speeds
