Sport Board Activity Trackers

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

The 'Trace' Action Sports Tracker Mounts Directly onto Boards

— May 29, 2017 — Lifestyle
Tracking your activity usually means using a wristband or a smartphone app, but the 'Trace' Action Sports Tracker changes this up with a design that is meant to be positioned directly onto a sport board. This includes surfboards, snowboards, skis and wakeboard in order to help users see their stats after they've finished partaking in the activity for the day.

The 'Trace' Action Sports Tracker features a compact design and is capable of tracking jump height, airtime, calories burned and much more without having to wear anything additional on your body. The tracker also connects to your action camera to enable you to overlay the data that it's collecting with your footage to show all of the various stats when watching the footage.
