”It’s a rock solid little unit, providing great reliability, backed by a full warranty. The adoption of this simple technology has blown me away. From top Olympic level paddlers right through to recreational paddlers, the response has been terrific. I’m delighted to act as a representative for the brand in Australia and to have linked up with these innovative Kiwis.”

“You can’t manage what you don’t measure.” (Deming)

Because boat speed is a product of stroke rate and distance per stroke these are the two most important metrics to measure and manage for improved performance. Vaaka sensors allow athletes and coaches to see stroke rate data during training.

Post training analysis using Vaaka Analytics software will automatically calculate distance per stroke making it possible to measure and monitor improvements in performance.
