Paracanoe Ergometer Challenge

Instructions for recording the videos

 

1/ First the video recording must show the ergometer screen that is set up for the 500m race.

 Video recording: capture the screen before the race

 2/ Then, within the same recording, the video recorder (or smartphone) will then be positioned properly to capture the entire race of the athlete (can be done by another person or by positioning properly the device).

Ideally the video should face the athlete, slightly position from the side, to have the best capture of the movement and the athlete.  

  Video recording: Best angle

 

3/ When finished, the same video should then capture the final time on the screen of the ergometer. The video can then be stopped.

Video recording: capture the screen after the race
