Yer i got a pretty accurate application on my phone jacko which tells your max speed, average speed etc.
But yer i got a reading of 71km/h on this one run we done only from about halfway with out leathers went back to it done it from the top with leathers and yes the following car behind us said they got to 80+ and the first section was steeper so i dunno it might be wrong but it all equaled up in my head when they told me.
a GPS can measure altitude... but it doesnt have to to get an accurate speed reading on how fast you travel on a skateboard.... it will pinpoint your location then take readings at intervals every millisecond (or something like that depending on your GPS) and are able to tell you the distace you've travelled, your average speed and max speed. then depending on which one u have u can plug it into your computer then download the data and get a detailed map of the traveled distance and work out things like how fast you traveled in certain points, the gradient and other interesting things... a GPS is the most accurate method (as long as its working properly) to measure how fast you are traveling on a skateboard...
Yer at first i thought it could be pretty dodgy off my phone but when i checked it in on in the car i could see that when it said 60 the speedo said 60 and so on and it is built in to it and not an actually program you can download or that.
I have heard of a Bike speedo which is wireless what do you recon they would be like?
