Time keeping

During the event, the SPORTident timekeeping system will be used. Air+ cards will be approved and activated in each race, and classic SI card will be accepted as well. Rented Air+ cards number is limited, so rent order will be processed first come first serve basis.

In case the SI box does not beep or flash, competitors must punch on the map with the traditional pin punches mounted on all controls. The team leaders have to return the rented SI-card to the Information Desk after the last race. It is a runner’s responsibility to bring the correct SI card and ensure it is working. Hired SI cards must be returned at the finish on the last day of the competition. The cost to replace a missing SI card is 30 euro.
