Starting Blocks for Swimming

ALGE-TIMING offers two types of starting blocks and one „Take Off Sensor“ to use together with existing starting blocks. Most people think that starting bocks that are connected to the swimming system can measure false starts. This is not possible, since the FINA rule for starting does not judge by taking off the starting block, but by a movement. The active starting blocks can be used to judge the relay take off, block-off time and reaction time.

All models produced by ALGE are made of stainless steel of the best quality. On request we can also supply customer designed starting blocks.

Starting Block SO2:

Each SO2 is made of stainless steel 1.4571. It provides Relay Take Off judging and take off time (statistic data). A unique technology of the SO2 makes it also available to have statistic data like start-reaction times and time of pressure. This special feature that is only available at ALGE-TIMING can be upgraded at any time with a simple Software-upgrade. The top surface is an ALGE-patented treatment that gives the swimmers a perfect grip and doesn’t change these characteristics due to heavy use. The SO2 is designed for swimming pools with 300mm high turn walls.

Starting Block SO2-X:

Each SO2-EX is made of stainless steel 1.4571. It provides Relay Take Off judging and take off time (statistic data). A unique technology of the SO2-EX makes it also available to have statistic data like start-reaction times and time of pressure. This special feature that is only available at ALGE-TIMING can be upgraded at any time with a simple Software-upgrade. The top surface is an ALGE-patented treatment that gives the swimmers a perfect grip and doesn’t change these characteristics due to heavy use.

This special feature that is only available at ALGE can be upgraded at any time with a simple Software-upgrade. The top surface is an ALGE-patented treatment that gives the swimmers a perfect grip and doesn’t change these characteristics due to the use like sanded surfaces.
