Unfortunately the online store is not quite ready. You can contact them via the contact form to purchase your system.

I've had my setup since the snow melted and it's worth the money. So crazy to see your how much each little mistake actually costs you.

Bromont has them I think? It would be so killer to have a couple trails at Whistler set up with the equipment!

Its a definite possibility for 09 in Whistler I beleive. They have been approched for the project already!Bromont freelap trails have been set up since last june! So much fun!! But in the mean time for your local spots to have a blast with you buddys its pretty unreal!!

so if I wanted the portable setup, would I have to buy 3 transmitters plus the watch? Or does the $120 package come with 3 transmitters? Just so you can have a start, split and finish. If each transmitter is 120, thats alot.

It's an investment but the improvements you see while timing sections is unreal. I only have two poles right now but want to buy a couple more so we can time splits on longer trails. As for portability the two poles can fit in the pocket of my tld moto shorts.

Yup! Thats what a lot a riders did around here! A bunch of riders chiped in on the poles so your system become a lot cheaper and anyways is so much more fun with a couple riders!

Yah those are really cool, and I am sure will become more and more common. I can see however why resorts wouldn't want people pinning it on the mountain for timed training purposes, from a safety or quantity of injury point of view anyway. That would be cool though if each watch was coded to an owner and when you rode a timed section of trail at Silver Star or Whistler, Bromont or whatever it automatically updated it to a webpage.....it would be like Golden Tee at all the pubs and stuff....cool.

I am looking into it for Arduum next year too. I am hoping to supply the poles, anyone with a watch would be able to compare their times against Ewan and Darryl's times. Should be good for practice day.

Or - if there were big flat panel tv's at the bottom of chair lifts and each time someone ripped a marked (poled) section of trail their time was uploaded to the web page, system etc. and that was also displayed at on the tv panel at the bottom. Kind of like the go carts in Kelowna, it could show daily hot times and season leaders etc., aswell as the on going scroll of new times coming in.....sweeeeet!

The Freelap system has no way of transmitting your lap time off the watch, does it? I'm not sure how you could have a "fastest lap" display at the bottom with this system unless I am missing some key aspect of it.

I was saying 'what if'.....it would be cool.
