Out of curiosity, if it goes no wetties, how do they know who went without one and is therefore competing for KQ/prizes?it's amazing what a timing chip around your ankle and a little I.T. work will do.
I'm sorry to be thick, but with no time separation between those wearing wetsuits and not, how will chips resolve the difference?
Two ways:
- two chip mats: go across one mat if you're not wearing a wetsuit, the other if you are
- a body needs to write down the race numbers of everyone wearing a wetsuit
It's a lot safer to just have separate mats. Then you can download chip ids of whoever went over the wetsuit mat, and use it to update everyone into the new category. All you need to use is one mat/box that's going out at a run turnaround; there's plenty of time to use at the swim, download, clear it, and reposition.
