Gear Review - Hang Timer

We got this item a few months back to test and just got around to getting it tested. JmacTN offered to give this interesting item a try. He went to Hamilton Creek just outside of Nashville, TN to test this on the mountain bike trails.

Hang Timer

The Hang Timer is a device which measures the amount of time an object is suspended off the ground. It uses small fairies inside the device creating magic dust to accomplish this feat; actually it’s a tri-axis accelerometer according to the company, but I still think it’s some kind of wizardry. It measures up to the one-hundredth of a second. It recommends that the Hang Timer be used for snowboarding, mountain biking, skiing, or skateboarding. JmacTN used it on the mountain bike trails. He reported that he could get the device to measure his jumps, but never could get long hang times. The course he rode had some nice drops and jumps, but none were large enough to really get anything worth bragging about. All-in-all, he liked the concept and thinks it would be best used on trails that have really good jump opportunities, or in sports like skateboarding or snowboarding. The device lights up, and can record up to 10 hang times. It has five sensitivity settings ranging from .25 to 2 seconds. Basically this is a more sophisticated way to brag.
This item retails for $99 and can be found at HangTimer.com and select retail stores. And I’m sure it will be more widely available as it catches on. A must-have item for people who need to get their props or who compete and want just one more cool stat to lure sponsors.
