Durham, N.C. – (April 22, 2024) – SKLZ, the global leader in sports-specific training products, is launching an exciting new wearable tech product that measures speed, agility, and vertical jump, SKLZ Hyper Speed. The SKLZ Hyper Speed combines a sleek wearable tech band and user-friendly mobile app to accurately measure speed, agility, and vertical jump so that athletes can create their own combine in their backyard or on the practice field.
Michael Polk, Chief Executive Officer of Implus, said, “The SKLZ Hyper Speed is a game-changer for youth athletes looking for a precise and reliable device to measure their speed, agility, and vertical jump. This product is a precision tool that replaces the need for expensive timing gate systems and inaccurate stopwatches, and it provides instant feedback to easily track performance gains on SKLZ proprietary app.”
The Hyper Speed is easy to use for athletes who want to monitor and level up their performance. Users simply set up their phone in the included tripod, strap on the wristband sensor and begin training. The app features instructional video drills to help guide and challenge athletes with different workouts. After each session, users check the app to view immediate results. It tracks and graphs speed or jump results after every drill to provide a comprehensive review of progress over time.
Athletes can use the Hyper Speed with a range of additional SKLZ products to diversify their workouts or focus on refining a particular skill with various training tools.
The Hyper Speed is available now for $199.99 on SKLZ.com, Amazon and at select Dick’s Sporting Goods House of Sport stores.
