Disc Golf

Disc Golf – A unique, exciting sport!

/in /by

Disc Golf is a sport that requires a player to throw a frisbee into a target at a distance in front of them. Most of all the rules of Disc Golf is similar to golf and played on courses of 9 or 18 holes or targets. As a result, players throw frisbees from a tee towards a target in the distance. Throwing multiple times once the frisbee has landed and so forth until the player reaches the target. Therefore as with golf, the player with the lowest number of throws wins the hole.

Disc Golf – The Courses

With 35,600 members of the PDGA worldwide, Disc Golf isn’t as niche as you think!

Average courses range from 200-240ft per hole. Courses are harder to complete with obstacles put in players way. Including many trees, bushes, elevation changes and out of bounds zones amongst others. Also to not drive players of different ability levels, many courses include various tee and target positions.

Played in more natural and less cleaned environments Disc Golf is different to the clean cut Golfing environment. Since safety is paramount to course designers to minimize the risk of being hit by a disc!

AirBuddy

AirBuddy – An easier way to Scuba!

/in /by

Airbuddy – A Scuba revolution?

The AirBuddy is a small rechargeable device that allows you to Scuba dive without the need for the huge tanks!. It’s a device invented to make Scuba diving a ‘grab and go’ sport. Since diving traditionally is seen as a sport that requires lots of prep and logistics.

You generally have to fill up your tanks with 210 bar pressure, around 100 times more than your car tyres! As a result of this importance, a trained operator would have to check themselves.

Hence we have the AirBuddy! While you won’t be able to go as deep as you can with Scuba tanks, but you can go a lot deeper than regular snorkeling. Therefore the Airbuddy allows for a great middle ground! Since it doesn’t require any tanks on one full charge will allow a user to dive for 45mins at a maximum depth of 12m.

It’s incredibly light (9.5kg) and is a small device too, allowing users to pick up their AirBuddy and quickly and easily get the Scuba experience! While at a fraction of the cost and in a quicker amount of time too! A battery powered portable dive compressor ultimately. Yet not on your back the device floats on the surface and follows you as you dive.

Posted by How To Kill an Hour on Wednesday, 30 August 2017

 “We set out to make the easiest-to-use, most versatile 360 camera in the world, and the ONE is the result of those efforts.The ONE isn’t just a step forward for 360 videography. With its unique FreeCapture technology, it stands to change the way we think about cameras in general.” JK Liu, CEO and founder of Insta360.

The Insta360 One also uses something called FreeCapture, users of the device can create videos in 3D. Yet if they find a specific moment, they can then hone in on that footage and convert it to a standard 1080p video. While right from within their smartphone.

The Insta360 One utilises smartphone’s on board gyroscope to edit the 360 degree scenes, using their phones as a viewfinder. So whatever they point their phone at at that specific moment of a 360 degree video, is what they’ll capture as a traditional fixed frame video. Moreso users can easily and quickly shift perspectives within a 360 degree video. Creating shots such as the “tiny planet” or the “Rabbit Hole”

What’s incredible about this device is that it can erase your selfie stick, making the camera, look like a drone.

Tech Specs

The Insta360 One has six-axis image stabilization along with an in built gyroscope to allow for super smooth shots. Futhermore the advanced stabilization and SmartTrack feature allows to create incredible “bullet time” shots. Hence a user can swing the Insta360 One around them, they will always be center frame, while the string/selfie stick is concealed.

  • Standard 1/4″ -20 Screws (Allowing to connect to most helmets, drones, tripods)
  • IP68 Waterproof rating. (Effective up to 30M (98.4 ft)
  • Insta360 One specific selfie stick/remote available separately
  • Includes a string attachment in the box to allow flying camera shots.
