Swedish Sprint Kayak National Team Partners with Lympik for Faster, Smarter Performance Analysis

The Swedish Sprint Kayak National Team has teamed up with Lympik to revolutionize how quickly and effectively race and training analysis is delivered. Through Lympik's sponsorship, the team now uses the Oculus GPS tracker in all their trainings and competitions, capturing highly accurate on-water performance data.

"With Lympik, we can review race data within minutes," says Kent Klitgaard, Sprint Team Coach & High-Performance Manager. "This speed means we can adjust tactics and technique immediately, maximizing every race or training session."

The Oculus system provides instant insights into key metrics such as speed, stroke rate,distance per stroke, drive ratio, and extra distance paddled. By developing a custom algorithm together with the Swedish team, we've achieved precise start detection in competitions, allowing for extremely accurate race timing and analysis.

Whether it's a sprint competition or a longer interval training , the system allows the Swedish coaches to pinpoint strengths, spot inefficiencies, and make informed adjustments before the next session begins. The combination of accuracy and speed has made Oculus an integral part of the team's high-performance workflow.

Lympik is proud to support the Swedish Sprint Kayak National Team on their journey to success.
