Best wireless timing gates for sprint coaches

Trust the data

Repeatable results you can count on. If an athlete runs 6.81s on Monday and 6.85s on Wednesday, you know it's real — not timing variability.

Speed of setup

Under 5 minutes from bag to first sprint. No cross-track wiring, self-aligning, no reflectors to configure. More time coaching, less time tinkering.

Insight from splits

See where speed is gained or lost with multiple split point profiling. Identify weak zones and target training where it matters most.

What coaches use SplitFast for

From talent ID to daily training — wherever you need reliable timing and splits.

01

Sprint Performance Measurement

Acceleration measurement across 10, 30, 40 and 90m reveals each athlete's acceleration signature. See split time performance data showing who's slow from the blocks, who fades around 20m, and who maintains speed deep into the run—then tailor training to the exact phase.

02

Flying Start Testing

Measure maximum velocity using flying starts. Track peak speed gains week to week, and compare athletes with similar training ages to identify standouts.

03

Talent Identification

Identify promising athletes early with objective data. Compare performance across age groups and track development over time to spot future stars.

04

Multi-Athlete Group Training

Time multiple athletes with this multi athlete timing system in one trial with minimal setup. Review all results on your iPad immediately after the session. Export to Excel or share results with athletes.

Simple workflow. Reliable results.

1

Setup

Place gates on tripods at your chosen distances (e.g., 10-20-30-90m).

2

Connect

Gates connect to the Hub automatically with 600m wireless range. Hub syncs to your iPhone/iPad app.

3

Run

Athletes run. LiDAR detects automatically and sends results to the app.

4

Review

See splits instantly on your device. Built-in analysis shows velocity curves and weak zones.

5

Export

Export session data to share with athletes or import into your training log.

Built for coaches who need reliable data

Reliable Split Time Measurement

<0.01s

With an error of <0.01s, split time measurement accuracy is guaranteed. You can be sure that the time recorded is the time the athlete actually ran.

Developed in Australia

Designed and developed in collaboration with elite coaches, sports scientists, and athletics clubs. Five years of R&D behind every gate. Real support from the people who built the system — not a call centre.

Battery Life That Lasts

70h+

Per gate on standard AA batteries. That's 3-4 months of weekly sessions before you need to change batteries. No mid-session failures.

Coaches Already Using SplitFast

"The repeatability is what sold me. I can finally trust that a 0.05s improvement is real progress, not just timing noise. Game-changer for training decisions."

— Sprint Coach, Brisbane

Free Download: Sprint Testing Protocols

Evidence-based protocols to analyze sprint performance. SplitFast can break the race into key phases, then benchmark each athlete's strengths and weaknesses against model sprinters—so training can target the exact phase that will deliver the biggest gains.

What coaches ask

How accurate is the timing compared to photo finish systems?

Wired photo finish systems have outstanding accuracy to within a few thousandths of a second. SplitFast can't claim to match certified wired timing used in elite competition, but the accuracy and repeatability (test-retest reliability) is excellent for training decisions. Typical error is <0.01s.

Can I time multiple athletes at once?

Yes you can. With the Starter or Elite Pack, you can have 2 or 4 athletes running at the same time when each gate is placed at the finish line. When adding split gates you reduce the number of athletes. You can time 2 athletes with 4 gates if you have a split gate and a finish gate in each lane. If you regularly need to time multiple athletes simultaneously (e.g., 4-8 lanes), consider the Club Pack with 8 gates for multi-lane timing.

What happens if I outgrow the Starter Pack?

You can purchase additional gates individually to expand your system. Many coaches start with 2 gates and add more later for advanced split timing. All gates work with the same Hub.

Do I need an iPhone or iPad?

Yes. The SplitFast Timing App currently runs on iPhone and iPad (iOS 14+). The iPad app is required for timing multiple athletes simultaneously.

Is there a monthly subscription?

No. The app is included free with your kit purchase. No monthly fees, no subscriptions.
