How do I participate in the race?

1. Find an eFoil school near you, that has installed a certified Speedtrack and go run some laps.

2. Have someone (a friend, random bystander) film your lap on video and upload the video using the “Upload a lap” page.

3. Once your fastest lap is officially timed and verified, it is updated to the leaderboard and you’ll get a notification in your email.
   

How are the dimensions of a certified Speedtrack verified?

In my experience, the easiest way to set the buoys accurately in the water is to simply:

1. measure the distances with a Range Finder (like the ones used in Golf).
   70m from the 1st buoy to the 2nd,
   55m from the 2nd buoy to the 3rd
   and 105m from the 3rd buoy back to the 1st.
   
   Once you have your buoys in place:

2. Position yourself next to each buoy with google maps open, let it find your precise location, zoom in the view as much as you can, then tap & hold on your location and take a screenshot. It will contain the precise GPS coordinates of your location.

3. Send the screenshots in (you can use the same “Upload a lap" page as above). Once your track installation is verified you’ll receive an email as confirmation. Congratulations, you’re now officially ready to rock!

What if someone decides to cheat?

Then someone is channeling Frank Dux and will suffer the consequences.
In all seriousness though, it’s in everyone’s interest to compete on a fair and level field, any underhanded tricks will come out eventually. Who would ever want to end up being that guy…?

What is the “Speedtrack Score”?

The Speedtrack Score is a metric based on your performance on the track. While your position on the Global Leaderboard is always dictated by your laptime and nothing else, the STS is a tool you can use to measure your progress. We are constantly developing methods to bring more intricate analysis of Lap Telemetry that play into the score, such as your ability to accelerate out of a turn, speed vs. turn radius, duration of top speed, G-force stability and more, which reveal aspects of your technique that can guide you to focus on the critical aspects of your performance to get you to beat your record time and time again.
