Book the chip timing pack
Updated: May 2026
The chip timing pack is Throwdown's official timing system for hybrid races. Athletes wear a transponder, one sensor reads them at the finish, and the time flows straight into the standings. No manual entry, a premium race experience. Here is how to book it and what to expect on event day.
What the pack includes
The setup is intentionally light:
- Velcro transponders worn by athletes during the race.
- A single Ubidium sensor, placed at the finish line.
No per-station sensor, no cabling at every event. One reading point at the finish is enough.
How times flow in automatically
The sensor records each athlete's finish time. Throwdown calculates the net time, meaning the finish time minus the start of the athlete's wave, and displays it automatically in the Standings tab. You have nothing to type by hand: crossings turn directly into ranked times.
Price and conditions
- 500 € excl. VAT per weekend rental.
- Available for hybrid competitions only.
Full pricing and timing details are on the pricing page.
The weekend logistics
- Friday evening: you pick up the equipment.
- Event day: simple setup, one sensor at the finish, transponders handed out to athletes.
- Monday: you return the equipment.
Once the sensor is in place and the waves start, times land in the Standings as athletes cross.
