Swimovate PoolMateLive

Having scooped plaudits and awards aplenty with their PoolMate and PoolmatePro, Brit triathletes Swimovate are back with the launch of their PoolMateLive.

Key features of the PoolMateLive include laps swum, distance, speed, efficiency, calories burned and extra-large display characters that can be viewed through goggles.

A vibrating alarm gives swimmers feedback by gently shaking the wrist after a set number of laps or time interval, meaning you don’t need to look at the screen to track progress.

With the optional download clip (£30), users can then download and analyse the data afterwards on a PC or Mac. Online features include a lap-by-lap analysis of every session including strokes, distance, speed, calories, stroke rate, stroke length and efficiency.

The PoolMateLive will retail for £90, with the download clip costing an extra £30. They’re available from www.swimovate.com
