Product Description
Take a run through the park, and the Air Pod will record up to 15 jumps. The quick and easy external mounting system allows the Air Pod to quickly strap to a user's leg and be shared amongst friends. Break it out for friendly competitions to see who's really going big and deserves the bragging rights. The convenient location and brightly lit display allows you to review air time while riding the lift back to the top of the mountain. Highly accurate, the Air Pod automatically calculates the amount of time you're off the ground. How does it work? Without getting into an advanced physics lesson, the guts of the Air Pod contain an accelerometer sensor that measures a number of different forces. One of those forces is gravity. The accelerometer measures changes in gravitational force to record the time when you launch off a kicker until you stomp the landing.  | | The Air Pod automatically calculates and records a user's air time per jump. |

i used this product last weekend, and thought it worked well. steve and i were able to compare our jump time to each other--though i wish we didnt have to share the air pod. meant loaning it to him after every run. a lot of people on the mountain liked it and had never seen anything like it.

I tried out the AIR POD last weekend on my first trip to the mountain this season. I never heard of Tech4O before, but they have a nice site with some other really cool watches and stuff on it. I'm still not sure how it works, but it is so cool. AIR POD can tell the exact second you leave the top of the kicker and measure your airtime until you land. Me and a friend of mine had a little comp to see who was going bigger off the same kicker and the most air I was able to get was 3.45 seconds. Even when we didn't totally stomp the landing or washed out a little bit, the AIR POD still recorded our air time perfectly. The strap was a lot more comfortable than I thought it would be and the light made it easy to check my air even when it started to get dark. The last couple of seasons all I did was hit the rails and boxes in the park, but those got old. Getting an AIR POD really makes getting bombing the mountain for huge airs fun again. I'm defintely gonna keep it my bag with the rest of the stuff I always bring to the mountain.

It's gonna go with me on evey trip to the mountian just like my MP3 does now.
