Mr. Fabrice Souloy´s comments and experiences with TimerGPS

"I bought two TimerGPS products from the Prix d´ Amerique expo to our stables. I was interested in trying new technology for trotting sports. I have been very satisfied with my TimerGPS from the first day of use. TimerGPS gives more accuracy and better results for training. It simply makes my daily routines easier."

"I use TimerGPS every day and in every training session. After having used it for a few months, I couldn´t imagine training a horse without it. I am very exited about this new training tool. I recommend TimerGPS to everyone working in trotting or monté sports."

 

 

 

Interview of Mr. Jorma Kontio 28.2.2011 

Jorma Kontio is one of the most successful drivers in Europe with over 8000 wins on his belt. Jorma Kontio has won the European championship twice, U.E.T Grand Prix with Jexpress Dahlia and European champion Grand Cirquit-series with Houston Laukko. In addition Jorma has won several other major races and he has been driving Varenne and Järvsöfaks, the best trotting horses ever.

When Jorma heard about TimerGPS for the first time he got interested immediately.
"There has not been a product like this before. TimerGPS displays distance and pace in min/km format in real time. No other stop watch on the market can do that. On top of that it has versatile exercise functions. TimerGPS is of great help for everyone involved in trotting sports from newcomers to top professionals.

Jorma Kontio is a highly respected driver in Europe. Jorma runs his own small trotting stable at his home in Sweden. "We have a few horses at home and TimerGPS has been an excellent tool in training them. When I am driving out in the forest sometimes it is difficult to estimate the pace and especially distance. TimerGPS provides exact pace and distance information in real time. No matter what the training circumstances are with the help of TimerGPS it is possible to train according to the plan and analyze each training session later.

How does TimerGPS help the driver in a race situation? Can it give something new to a very experienced and successful driver such as you?
"Compared to normal stop watch you can see the pace in real time and that enables to react faster on pace changes. Using TimerGPS has made me realize how much the pace actually can vary during a race. When I get to a leading position with a horse that can keep the pace I can use TimerGPS to set a steady pace for the rest of the race.

Which functions of the TimerGPS do you like most?
Interval exercise is very good and easy to use function to check the pace and distance of each interval. With the help of TimerGPS you don´t need to have milestones any more. What I also like is that all exercise data is automatically saved on the device memory. Backlight of the display has been very good especially in winter night races. Long battery life is also great.

"I like TimerGPS a lot and feedback from my colleague drivers here in Sweden has been very positive. Örjan Kihlström and Torbjörn Jansson are using TimerGPS when they are racing. Being able to show the pace (min/km) in real time is a great advantage and this is why I think TimerGPS can replace a normal stop watch in trotting sports."
