THE
SPLIT
THAT
LEVELS
THE
FIELD.
EqualSplit started as a high school project in Oak Park, CA, and turned into something we actually believe in. Two student athletes who wanted better data, taught themselves the hardware, and built it. Now tested on real tracks, endorsed by an Olympic gold medalist, and getting better every week.

Our Journey
FROM ZERO TO PRODUCT
It started with a frustration. We were student athletes who knew what good timing data could do, and watched our school make do without it. So we started sketching. What would it actually take to build our own?
We taught ourselves everything: microcontrollers, LiDAR sensors, wireless communication. The first prototype was rough, but it worked. A real split time on a real track. That was enough to know we were onto something.
Custom PCB, refined firmware, a purpose-built 3D-printed enclosure. Two timing modes. 100m+ wireless range. Everything a coach needs, at a price any program can afford.
Versatile. You can use it at any distance, with any athlete. It's reliable — and easy to use.
What We Stand For
OUR MISSION
Talent has no zip code. The tools to develop it shouldn't either. Every athlete deserves objective data, not just the ones at well-funded programs. That's the whole reason we built this.
We're student athletes from Oak Park who understood the problem firsthand. Every design decision comes from real coaches, real training, and real feedback from the track.

Every dollar goes directly toward putting free timing gates in the hands of schools and programs that can't afford them.
