Lab instrument on the water
PaddleMate POD Pro
High-resolution force lab for coaches and serious athletes — 100 Hz pulling-force curves on the PRO platform. Snap the POD into the BASE, calibrate, and analyse every stroke in detail (kayak, canoe, SUP, dragonboat, surfski).

- Stroke-to-stroke repeatability (Nano)Under repeated pneumatic bending, force output CV ≈ 0.99%; 95% of strokes within ±2% of the mean (PM-TR-2026-02).Open PDF
- Static linearity on a dragon-boat paddle (Pro)Dead-weight loadings 5–20 kg: sensitivity line through zero with R² ≈ 0.99999 (PM-TR-2026-03).Open PDF
- Shaft temperature vs sensitivity (Pro)PreliminaryOn a water-conditioned carbon tube, 2–35 °C: sensitivity changed by at most ~1.6% vs 18 °C (PM-TR-2026-04).Open PDF
