Relive the magic

Have you never swum with a timing chip before, or do you just need a quick refresher on how to attach it? Then watch the video here.
After visiting the Registration Tent, you will have received your participant envelope. This contains your swim cap and a timing chip with strap.
Thread the strap through the middle elongated holes in the chip.
The logo on the strap must face upwards, as shown in the illustration.
Fasten the strap with the chip around your wrist.
Close the Velcro fastening securely around your wrist.
The timing chip must be worn on your wrist.
It must not be covered by your wetsuit – it should be placed directly on the skin or on top of the wetsuit.
If the chip is not positioned correctly, your time will not be recorded.
Make sure the chip is firmly secured so it does not fall off during the swim.
